If you are a traveller staying in the place only for a few days to visit the city of Auckland, it is an excellent place, as described in most of the reviews, it is modern and well-equipped , in a perfection location to the nearby attractions. However, if you have to stay long like us, for more than 4 weeks during the Covid -19 lockdown, it may not be what you expect. First, the bedroom has no windows and the ventilation of air is poor. The air- conditioning doesn’t help much as it is in the far corner of the dining area. Second, neighbours around smoked on the balconies, day and night, and the smoke spread inside the flat. That is a nuisance to us as non smokers. Another thing is the noise of traffic on the street. In the lockdown situation, traffic was already reduced to only buses, a few private cars and the police. But it was still very noisy because the bus stop is just underneath , the starting and stopping of the vehicle engines was very disturbing.
Overall, it is a very nice apartment, well- maintained with good amenities, especially the smart TV and the Netflix, which made our life easier during the lockdown.
