Firstly the good points about the stay: The location is perfect. Walkable to the waterfront, Te Papa, and lots of restaurants and bars. Despite being on a busy road it's quite quiet.
Now the not-so-good. The unit is showing its age. The pictures were taken a while ago, and may well have been the advertising promo for the building. The unit needs a deep clean, Lots of dust on and under the shelving and dirt under the sofa. Bottle caps behind the sofa. The toilet seat is broken and loose. The air vents have lots of dust around them on the ceiling. Not entirely the unit owner's fault as the building should be cleaning the actual ducts, but the area around them should be cleaned.
We contacted the host about the issues and they did come and clean one of the vents while we were there but not the rest and the toilet seat was still broken when we left.
