The apartment is so very comfortable and perfect for a long stay (I was there for 6 weeks). It was immaculate when I arrived. The kitchen is fully functional with a microwave, oven, dish washer and a full size fridge. I was also pleased it had a pantry - it's surprising what a difference that makes keeping basic items such as jams, crackers, glad wrap and cereals off the benches. The lounge area was relaxing, along with the work desk and a dining table for meals. Sitting out on the balcony, in the sun, was also very pleasant. The bedroom was a good size with a double wardrobe and ensuite. The wardrobe was large enough to also place my large suitcase so it was out of the way. I found the bed was comfortable and warm enough without blankets.
The location itself is less than a 2 mins walk to Karangahape Rd and 10 mins from Ponsonby Rd, both filled with great cafes and lots of interest. Equally for longer walks, 30 mins to The Quay in the CBD and a 40 min walk to Newmarket. K'Rd and Ponsonby Rd also has a good bus service so it is a convenient location to get around. The only downside is that consequently it can get a little noisy at nights, on occasion, during the weekend with a few late night revellers wandering the local streets in the wee small hours, totally oblivious to how the noise carries.
The Guest Easy Team were very friendly and helpful. I needed a slightly larger saucepan than the one in the apartment and was prepared to go and buy one myself and leave it there for future guests, but the team went out and bought me one themselves. This was appreciated very much.
I would not hesitate to stay at the apartment again and I was very sorry I was not able to stay there for a bit longer as my work contract had been extended, but alas it was booked by some other guests. I hope they enjoy the apartment as much as I did..
I highly recommend it.
