We absolutely loved staying in Linley's place for 3 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. The apartment is very comfortable with great beds and baths and easy to cook in or go out to a lot of restaurants close by. It's a great pedestrian area on the waterfront to check out all the expensive yachts and sailboats, great restaurants and shops and downtown Auckland (Queen Street) is just a short walk away, as in Ponsonby, a fun and eclectic shopping/dining street. We couldn't imagine a better place to stay in downtown Auckland than Linley's apartment and highly recommend it!
