The apartment had gorgeous large windows that overlook Lake Taupo, and as others have stated, is perfect for viewing the sunset. Some of the furniture is a bit dated, but comfortable nonetheless. The bathroom appears newly renovated and clean as well. Just a note that the stairs to the front door can be slightly tricky to navigate if you've got heavy luggage, and that the driveway is quite steep and can be difficult to spot (we missed it going past the first time around). I enjoyed staying here and would recommend it to others in Taupo.
