Everything was great but we couldn't get on wifi, so coming from overseas it was not ideal, but we managed. Great location for what we needed, spacious and comfortable! Heated bathroom floors and towel racks were a huge bonus since it was cold!!! Loved it!

Auckland Visit

Met our needs which was to have 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The lounge space was nice for a 5 night stay as it allowed room for all to stretch out. Only used kitchen for preparing simple breakfast. Parking is definitely a bonus as felt safe and secure. No wifi, would have been better if available. Otherwise good value for money.

Great but Noisy neighborhood

Very nice flat in very nice building; washer/dryer combo a little challenging; proximity to Ponsonby food/shopping was fantastic and while I may not be used to city dwelling anymore, there always seemed to be a lot of construction noise in off hours. Only reason I would think twice about staying there again is the nighttime noise. That being said, I did not try ear plugs which may be a great solution.

Ups and downs

The location was fabulous and the building was upscale, secure and comfortable with nice amenities. The apartment was well equipped with kitchen appliances, dishes etc. It was clean on the surface but some areas were neglected. There were several frustrating issues of miscommunication. Our booking was for 8 days but Houst insisted we were booked for only 7 but could pay for an extra day. They did nothing to resolve the issue until we contacted VRBO and they communicated with Houst on our behalf. Because we were coming from overseas and travelling overnight with an early arrival, we asked for an early check in and VRBO confirmed. Houst would not honour the early check in time until 24hours prior. Apartment description included access to internet but none was available. We were notified that it was temporarily down, but there was no attempt to fix the problem and it appeared to not be available for some time. This left us ‘stranded’ and unable to communicate with family etc. until we could purchase SIM cards and data plans. After several phone calls to VRBO and Houst, we were reimbursed for our SIM cards and data plans. In the end, we enjoyed our stay, despite the frustrations.

Great modern apartment with everything we needed. Parking building was very confusing for someone not familiar with it. Bathroom not entirely clean as hair was found in the sink alongwith both vanities not cleaned underneath the plate that sits on top of the vanity plugholes.

Mother daughter trip

Absolutely loved our stay, very cute apartment and comfortable bed, very good location. Only issue was finding key, getting familiar with car park, and getting in and out of apartment as instructions were wrong and didn’t stipulate what level apartment was on but once we figured it out all was well.
