We had a 2 night stay. The location is FANTASTIC! We came up from the South Island and rented a car at the port. Recommendation to others, maybe wait to get the car if you stay here until you leave and continue your road trip. We easily could have done without a car because parking is kind of a hassle, paid parking all around. You will find parking, but have to remember to keep you eye on the clock. Read Natalie's description - she explains it well. Nice apartment - has everything you need.
