Alison is among the loveliest most memorable hosts we’ve had the pleasure of meeting. She was delightful to interact with. Her wonderful guest apartment is set back in an enclosed courtyard just steps from the urban action occurring just outside the gate in the heart of Wellington’s Cuba Mall. The location feels very safe and is an easy 10 minute walk (or less) to the museum, 15 minutes to the cable car, and 30 minutes to the national library, which we highly recommend for its exhibits. There are a lot of good eateries in immediate proximity, and Allison provides an excellent list of recommendations. We particularly enjoyed Olive just a block away for hand-crafted Italian with fresh ingredients, and a quiet romantic ambience in a lovely setting.
The lounge/kitchen is spacious, bright and has the feel of an art gallery. The bed is super comfortable, and the linens are of excellent quality.
We hope to return and would definitely stay here again.
