I stayed at Jon’s apartment for four months – I planned on staying at his apartment for at least another three, but due to unexpected events had to cut my stay short. I give Jon as a host and his apartment a perfect five on everything. Jon is friendly, courteous, and a very intelligent man. He was very prompt with any request that I had regarding amenities at the apartment. His communication was also very prompt. As for the apartment, it is a hidden gem in the city. The prices are very reasonable for such a well-furnished apartment with so many conveniences. CBD is about a 15-minute walk. The Thorndon New World Super Market is a 10-minute walk – New World being so close was very convenient, especially when I had to buy things at around 10 PM when most of Wellington’s shops are closed. Should you want to take a bus or the train, they are also very close by. The apartment is spacious, well-stocked with all the utensils and appliances you need. Internet is fast and for the four months that I stayed I rarely got disconnected. The bed is super comfortable and warm. And to top it, there are some really scenic trails around Jon’s Place.
To sum up, my stay at Jon’s apartment was fabulous. I have zero complaints and if I visit Wellington again, I’d definitely stay at Jon’s place.
