The hostess is an excellent hostess. The apartment is well situated. About 7 minutes by car to the supermarket and different shops and about 20 minutes by train from Raroa station to downtown Wellington. It cost us 10$NZ for a day ticket to travel on train and buses inside zone 3. The Skyline Walkway Track is just around the corner to get a beautiful view of the city on Mount Kau Kau. There is private parking. The apartment is clean and bright. It is well equipped and everything works well. There were amenities. The Wifi is excellent and fast. There is a view of beautiful mature trees 20-30 feet from the glass door. The neighbourhood is safe. We had no trouble doing all our visits around Wellington from this apartment by car and train. My wife and I recommend this lovely apartment.
