Unless you want to be bang in the middle of a town, Ben's apartment is perfect. It's just far enough out of Queenstown to be quiet and stress free and yet a quick jaunt in by car. It was pretty handy to have a shopping centre between Ben's and town when we wanted to get some food for breakfast etc.
We took advantage of the bikes he provided and cycled along the bike trail one evening which was lovely. The trail around the golf course is great too, especially if you want a quick cycle or a nice walk with lovely views of the lake and Queenstown. The apartment is spacious, clean and comfortable. With the essentials in the cupboard like wine glasses and cafetière :-) And cooking equipment also of course.
It's a perfect stress free handy place to stay and I would stay there again without hesitation. Ben and Rosanne were really nice, relaxed and accommodating hosts.
