Fantastic little apartment, with a fantastic host. Alex made everything really easy, from check-in to check-out and everything in between. No question went unanswered, and he was around if needed as well as quick to respond. Location is fantastic for Auckland, 30minute walk (10minute drive) from Albany Mall which has bus links to Auckland centre. Apartment was easy to find and just off the motorway from the airport. The walls are a little thin, so the nighttime no-noise request were very much appreciated. Kitchenette was well equipped for quick meals, breakfasts and pasta, but the stove did take some time to warm up so bigger meals might be problematic. Overall very happy with our choice to stay at Alex’s beautiful apartment and would recommend, the bears on the bed were a lovely extra welcoming touch!
