You'd be hard pressed to find a better location in Auckland. Amazing view and close to the best that the city centre has to offer.
3 negatives and 1 huge positive: The apartment we were assigned was right above a busy restaurant/ bar, which was noisy until midnight on Fri & Sat. But very peaceful at other times.
The bedrooms were a little interesting. Great for young families or a couple wanting extra space. Not quite suitable for people wanting to stay with other adults. The second "bedroom" is merely partitioned from the main bedroom by a sliding slat door. And the walls dont reach the ceiling, meaning noise and light enter from the main living area. Likely designed as a way to get around strata regulations on maximum genuine bedrooms. Nonetheless it's fine as a kids room.
The parking situation is not ideal. With Wilson Parking providing ticketed spaces, you'll pay $24 for an overnight spot and $14 for 60mins during the day. We chose to rent a car for just 3 days of our 6 day stay and the parking fees certainly added up for our overnight fees.
Dont let this discourage you though. The convenience of having a home base so close to the action outweighs these minor complaints.
