We stayed at the Art stable for a week and we thoroughly enjoyed it!
The Art stable is a private self contained two level apartment that is in the same building as the owners. You only share the ground floor entrance door so you get the best of both worlds- independence and the owner close by if needed. Also, because the owner doesn't live in the apartment you get the instant feeling of it being your own space and not invading someone else's space. There is gorgeous, inspiring Art from the gallery below throughout the apartment which is all for sale!
Alison was very welcoming and really responsive to all questions we had and info needed. We felt very at home from day one. The bed is so comfy, with feather filled duvet, pillows and super comfy mattress. The bedroom is on the first floor along with the bathroom which has a powerful shower and Alison kindly left toiletries, hairdryer and lots of towels. Upstairs there is a lovely open plan living space with kitchen and dining area. Again, Alison very considerately left us some provisions of milk and bread and there's a well stocked cupboard of all the little bits that you might need. The photos of the Art stable do not do it justice, it's a lovely place to base yourself in Wellington, next to Cuba street with all the cool restaurants, cafes, bars and shops. Within walking distance to everything!
A great Air bnb find!
