Well, all kudos to Jason, we can't say we weren't warned about the noise from the bar/nightclub downstairs, but I'd hoped that earlier in the week may have seen less party activity, however... not so. I can sleep anywhere anytime, but my husband found it difficult to settle until the bar closed. I'm actually surprised they're allowed a licence to operate that late in an areas that does have residential tenancies... they certainly wouldn't be permitted to in Auckland.
So, that aside, if you're out and about until ridiculous hours of the morning this won't bother you, nor will it concern deep sleepers like me... and the bonuses of a large spacious apartment so close to all the good things Wellington has to offer (Te Papa, Museums, Waterfront, Cable Car, Circa Theatre, Opera House ) without a hotel price tag is the trade-off.
Lots of good things in the pantry, with nice touch of a bottle of wine, bottled water, and chippies made snacking and breakfast easy, (with the provisions for the latter) and although we chose to eat out, we could have prepared a meal with the range of condiments supplied.
