"Spacious, modern accommodation in a central location. We had a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment and it was super clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Great supply of toiletries, comfortable beds, functional kitchenette and laundry facilities including a dryer, that was a bonus.
The only thing that wasn’t great is a fan that was connected to the light in both bathrooms. It was extremely noisy and given bathrooms are very close to beds it was inconvenient at times. "
"It was our first stay in New Zealand and after a long flight, it was nice to have a spacious king size suite with lake views. The view was amazing! Bathrooms were clean. The unit had everything we needed - hot showers, good water pressure, and kitchenette. There is a parking garage available that is very small and tight but you get used to it. You do hear cars but it didn’t really bother us. Location is convenient, 15-20 minute walk into town. There are stairs to get into the unit and the front desk so just beware if you have lots of luggage. "
