Isabel’s apartment was amazing. Spotlessly clean, beautiful period details, cool quirky features (loved the vault door) and stylishly decorated. Isabel was a thoughtful host, with fresh milk, butter and the most delicious bakery bread provided for us on arrival. Her recommendations were spot on (going up Te Mata Peak is a must), and we particularly liked getting takeaway pizza from Pipis. The area is great, with lots of cool shops very close by (eg bakery, gin distillery, bookshop, restaurants). Our only slight issue (no clothes airer to dry our clothes on) was rectified by Isabel within about 20 minutes of asking if there was one. Highly, highly recommended!
