The location of this apartment is awesome. There are many restaurants and the ferry is within super easy walking distance. The views were amazing and the balcony is very large. I wish the outdoor furniture had been clean, as we would have sat outside to enjoy the space. The photos are accurate for the space but it definitely shows more wear and tear now - fabric on sofa has fading from sun, burlap style rug inside apt near balcony is curled up on edges, the furry pillows are a bit matted, the floor in the kitchen is damaged a bit and the curtains show water stains. ***If you care about the health of your bum, bring or go buy different/better toilet paper!*** The air conditioning was nice to have, though you definitely need to keep the blinds closed during the day if you wish to keep the apartment at a comfortable temperature - I would recommend a stronger a/c unit, or multiple a/c units. No a/c in bedroom, but there was a nice fan. There is lots of closet/storage space throughout the apartment and coming and going through the building was easy and convenient. If you plan to use Uber, use “Hilton” as your pick up and drop off, so they’ll actually come onto the Wharf. We hadn’t been to NZ before, so we weren’t aware that a king size bed here is much smaller than in the US - which made for a bit of a surprise when we arrived. But the mattress was very comfortable and the pillows & bedding were nice. Hosts were quick to reply when we had questions.
