I live was n Wellington but could not return to my home because i was required to go into quarantine due to covid 19. I booked this apartment for a 2 wk quarantine after arriving back from the US. There are a number of good things. The location is excellent. The balcony , although dirty , was good to have during quarantine. There was no outside chair or table so I moved some from inside. The bed was comfy. The shower good. The washer/dryer combo was useful. However there are also negatives. High on the list was that the apartment was not clean. The pots and pans were disgusting and were caked with residue. There was a layer of dust on the dishes and glassware. The cutlery was also dirty. I washed everything before using it. There was also a layer of dust in the lounge/dining area. The tables, sofa and chairs had to be wiped down. I did not feel that this was a healthy environment and i explained that to the host. When i sent photos of the dirt the host aplogised and said he would understand if I wanted to leave. I could not leave though. I was in quarantine! A smaller thing is that The tv and fridge are too small for a large apartment. I requested a 25 % refund because of the unclean apartment but was offered only the cleaning fee. At theses difficult times i did not want to challenge this with airbnb. The hosts were very responsive but they are not local and therefore cannot manage this apartment well. They provided a new frypan and pot and also some bug spray when i sent a photo of the infestation by small black flies. Despite the excellent location I would not recommend this apartment. It is an expensive rental and should have been in pristine condition.
