You can't beat the location of this flat. It is centrally located, an easy walk to the i-Site, supermarket, Te Papa, Cuba Street and Courtney Place. There is the occasional street noise, but nothing abnormal for a city apartment. We were there in June, and the apartment was easily warm enough, but there are also heaters if you need them. The bed was really comfortable. Caroline made the process of checking in/out easy, gave helpful advice about nearby restaurants, and responded quickly to our inquiries. When we arrived, there were scones, butter, milk and a couple of other sundries waiting for us (very much appreciated by 2 jet-lagged travelers.) Great experience overall.
