Monica’s apartment is a well-located and very comfortable pad in Auckland. It has one of the most well-equipped kitchens I have encountered to date. The bedroom is spacious and the bathroom very well-laid out. The water pressure is excellent.
One uses a key card for entry to the apartment, coded for that unit alone. There is also a 24-hour desk at the entrance to the building so security is quite good.
Monica responds very quickly re any questions or concerns. She is clearly invested in ensuring that guests enjoy their stay.
As for drawbacks, there are few. The LR looks out from above over a neighboring building to the water but the view is still frankly less than an inspiring one.
Monica has equipped the apartment with excellent cotton sheets and towels. The only quibbles I have, and these are minor ones, is that the coffee is instant rather than ground and the bed a bit soft for my taste though certainly not uncomfortable as I slept quite well.
I would recommend Monica’s apt to anyone I know visiting Auckland. It has many advantages and few shortcomings.
