We liked the Location on the map as very central to everything but thIs area is very dodgy as we found out. Felt very uncomfortable leaving and entering the property with people hanging around outside AND inside. Check in was semi easy with a lock box across the road but only given to you once you send a picture of your id (weird) but again there are quite a few people around making it hard to enter and leave the premises. As a single woman with two kids wouldnt recommend for a family due to the area. Prob suit prople casinoing. On arrival the pictures the host has of the apartement are different to the apartment we stayed in. There was no tumble dryer, brown sofa and the lounge / kitchen layout was completely different. No proper sheets over the duvet inner just a blanket, so wake up with the previous persons duvet inner on your body and face and was told by owner "thats how most auckland hotels do it" is ewwwww. Ive travelled the world and have never had a naked duvet inner on a bed before. The ironing board had goodness what on it that stained our clothes and the smell coming from the washing machine was pungent. The hot water kept going hot cold hot cold with one of the taps brokens, and after speaking to a long term tenant she said thats normal. We also had an issue with the cleanlness of the property, food in and on the sofa, pladtic under the bed which air b n b kindly refunded the cleaning fee for us as we had photos. Word to the wise though, take pictures of the property when you arrive and leave as you may need them! Unfortunately wouldnt recommend host or apartment as in retaliation to us getting cleaning fee back he falsely accused us of unproven damage. STAY AWAY 😁
