Good walkable location, well stocked kitchen area, comfortable furniture, nice linens. Our only minor issue was the internet could be spotty at times - not a big deal for our needs. Sarah has to be the best communicator we have ever encountered- written and photographic instructions for entry and appliances made for a relaxing stay. Highly recommend this apartment.

Exploring Wellington

The room was immaculate. Although we didn’t cook it did have everything we would have needed. The shower had lots of hot water and a heated towel rack!! It was the perfect location for us to explore the city. Nothing felt out of reach. Our hostess was very helpful and it was a very easy check in!! Thanks for a wonderful spot for us to explore Wellington.

Cute central and convenient apartment

This was our second time staying at the apartment and it was even better as there were many improvements made since last year. Small but has everything you need for a comfortable stay and close to Cuba St and many eateries. Highly recommend.

Great property close to everything

Had a great stay here. It was easy to get to and Sarah was very accommodating in allowing me to store my bags before check in. You are close to everything and there are plenty of restaurants and bars right outside the door. A 5 minute walk to the main tour pick up points which was really convenient.

Fabulous stay!

I had a wonderful nine-day long stay at this lovely little apartment. It is in the perfect location for exploring Wellington on foot, especially for enjoying the restaurants and bars on Cuba Street. The apartment is well furnished and provisioned with everything you might need, including a washing machine, dishwasher, etc which made cooking at home a breeze. The sweet little balcony offers a great view over to Mnt Victoria. Communication with the property manager was very easy and she was very accommodating and friendly. I'd definitely recommend staying here!

Wellington Experience

The apartment is located in the CBD close to harbour area and beach, museums, shopping and restaurants. Very walkable. Couldn’t ask for a better location! Sarah suggested the Siem Reap restaurant which was a great restaurant. We got in early but if you wanted to eat later need a reservation, it’s that popular!

Beautiful Apartment in the Heart of Wellington

Beautiful apartment with a balcony. Great little kitchen for cooking meals; nice view of the city, mountain and a wee peak at the ocean. Sarah, the host, was easy to connect with and we had good communication. The photos to access the key and apartment were very helpful. A very enjoyable stay, and a great host. Thanks again.

Perfect overall

The apartment is not big, but for one person it was ideal. It had everything I needed and was nicely positioned to walk (even in the rain) to Massey University and Te Papa and supermarkets. Clean and tidy, a nice washing machine. Nothing wrong. I was relieved when I figured out which was the right place to get the key because it was dark by the time I arrived, and I felt a bit vulnerable, but once that was sorted, everything was really good.
