This Airbnb is right in the heart of a pedestrian shopping area. It is also very close to the waterfront and the Te, Papa Museum.
However, the location is fairly noisy – especially in the evening and at night. It is right across from a kebab and hookah establishment and the patrons are quite boisterous, even on Sunday and Monday night. They never made it to bed before we did. You can hear all of the voices and noise very clearly from the front room. Luckily, if you close the bedroom door, it is fairly quiet. However, we stayed during the summer, which meant that we couldn’t get a cross breeze, since there are only two smaller windows in the apartment that open – one in the bedroom and one in the front room.
If you are more of a night owl, this is probably a good place for you. But if you were wanting to get an early start on a warmer day, you might want to look somewhere quieter.
