Overall we enjoyed our two week stay here, but there were things that could be improved which means we would most likely look for somewhere else if we return to Wellington in the future.
Petra's apartment is right on Cuba street, in amongst all the cool bars, restaurants, cafes and shops! You can't get more central. Petra was very quick to get back to us if we had any questions.
The apartment feels sizeable enough for a couple but anymore would be a squeeze, for example only two chairs around dining table (not the 4 shown in the pictures).
The bed is very comfortable and the shower is hot and plenty powerful.
The view from the big windows is incredible!
Although the kitchen is of good size to use we did find some basic utensils and crockery missing to make simple dinners easily (an omelette with no spatula) or lack of good sized mugs for hot drinks.
We did enjoy our stay but felt we had to live around the hosts personal possessions - we've stayed in other Airbnb whole houses and not felt like that before. The overall cleanliness of the apartment could have been better also.
It might be personal preference but worth mentioning.
The apartment is connected to the CQ hotel and felt more like we were staying in the hotel than a private apartment - with the separate entrance door being broken and needing to enter via the hotel reinforced this feeling.
There is access to a shared pool and hot tub- but the cleanliness and condition of both was rather disappointing. We only used this facility once and did not go back again.
There was a noticeable and very annoying humming sound from outside of the bedroom window (perhaps from a venting system of some kind) Even with the window shut you could hear it clearly which unfortunately didn't provide a fully relaxing nights sleep.
