Location, location, location. The Battery Point apartment has the perfection location. Close to shops, restaurants, galleries, cafés, parks and history.
I think you would have a hard time competing for the location. Arthur's circus is several houses away, the cafés and Restaurants of Hampden Rd are a two minute stroll, and Salamanca is two minutes in the other direction, complete with a supermarket. The apartment is an older style, thus it's solid and quite. Our host had everything we required for relaxing and cooking, she even left some fresh milk for our stay. The decor is fresh, new and the view of Mt Wellington superb.
Making the booking was easy, gaining access was fuss free, and when we had a question regarding the apartment, it was answered immediately.
I would highly recommend the apartment for two people or less.
