What a location! Right in the heart of everything exciting in Auckland... couldn't have asked for a better locale. Many nice restaurants & bars available within 1min walking distance. Sky Tower and nearby attractions such as ferry rides to other places in New Zealand are also at most 10mins walking distance away. The apartment itself is also quite nice with a comfortable bed, nicely equipped kitchen and of course large windows letting in a lot of natural light! Noise wasn't really an issue for us during our stay. Yes it gets a little loud sometimes, but nothing unbearable or annoying at all.
Wish the check-in procedure to get the keys & swipes was a little bit better. It's not too far away, but it can definitely be a pain if it's raining out! The apartment wasn't cleaned as thoroughly as others we've stayed in, so some extra cleaning could have been better. The dryer unit was not functioning properly during our stay, but management was communicative about the whole issue and also issued a small refund along with some extra towels for the remainder of our stay. Wi-Fi is good when it works, but at other times it can be quite spotty (especially with the TV). Simply rebooting the router and then reconnecting the TV to the router did the trick, but it's something that can be frustrating doing on a daily basis.
Overall, an excellent stay and would definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for an exciting time in Auckland!
