This was our first trip to Queenstown, so I am not sure if the price paid represents value for money. We were however left disappointed for several reasons, listed below.
-The view is certainly stunning, and the walk into town is as described.
-Be aware that the furniture is NOT as pictured. The pictures show cream coloured sofa, chairs and soft pouffe in the lounge. The actual furniture is black, and the pouffe has been replaced with large black coffee table. Even the wall clock is not as pictured. None of this furniture is new. In this respect the property was not as described.
-The table outside the front of the property is not as pictured, the pictured ‘café set’ was replaced with heavy wooden furniture.
-The bath had multiple chips. The bathroom sink surface was crazed, by age. Taps were difficult to turn on, and many dripped.
-The balcony on first floor ‘wobbled’ when stood on, we therefore did not use it.
-The double bed in the front room has no headboard, as it is partly in front of a window it is not possible for both people to sit up in bed.
-The single bed in the front room has a large curtain retainer exactly above the pillow, we did not use this bed but anyone who does risks hitting their head on this.
-There are a few stains on the carpet.
-This was a perfectly serviceable base from which to explore Queenstown, but we felt disappointed in this property as it was not as pictured, especially when compared to other AirBnB we have stayed in around NZ.
-All the above mentioned items are factual, with photos available.
