We did enjoy our stay in the apartment, but there are some areas that could be improved. The apartment is like a living in an estate agents show house. The living room, kitchen and bedrooms are beautifully but sparsely furnished and the bathrooms are really beautiful. The towels and other linen were lovely. There is a nice balcony with two chairs which is a nice place to sit in the evenings.
The location is good, with easy access to buses and the train into downtown Auckland. It is also on the edge of the Mount Eden park. Parking is free locally, but as this is a commercial area, spaces are very, very difficult to find during working hours.
The area and apartment block was very quiet, although few apartments were occupied, as the building was still being finished with ongoing work in the walkways and other areas.
We were one of the first guests to use the apartment and we found it a little under equipped, but I hope the hosts may improve things as they have more guests and experience.
