This is the perfect apartment. I stayed here long term — 1 month while on fellowship at Victoria University — and really wish I could have stayed longer. The location is perfect for day to day and long trips. The bus stop is so close to the house for longer trips (and local stops) and there are TONS of restaurants, shops, the Te Papa, a big grocery store, a dairy, just everything you need all in walking distance. Jan was so nice and easy to work with. And the apartment itself is much bigger than it seems even in pictures. Amazing touches, really stylish and comfortable with tall ceilings and amazing light. Wouldn’t have changed a single thing about the stay. I’ve had some really bad Airbnb experiences but Jan was just amazing to work with and the place was so lovely. Highly highly recommend
