Binyan's apartment was the final stop on our vacation in NZ where we stayed one night. As hosts, Binyan/Lexie/April were prompt with their communication. They also graciously extended our check-out time by half an hour - thank you. The apartment is conveniently located within a quiet and safe residential neighborhood. It was also close to restaurants and grocery stores. I would describe the apartment as functional - it provided us everything we needed for an overnight stay. However, I feel the apartment needs updating as the furnishing looked tired. Small details like mismatched lightbulbs in the dining room (2 warm white - 1 cool white), or blown lightbulbs in the bathroom not having been replaced made the apartment feel neglected. Overall, the apartment lacked personality and felt dull - not the way I wanted to end off our vacation. Several positives: Onsite parking was a major convenience. Living room air conditioning kept us cool on a very HOT summer day.
