Good location. Property not well maintained eg. broken floor tiles, mold in tile grout, carpet needs replacing or deep clean, rips in sofa stitching and hole in bed base. Cleanliness is ok if assessed separately to maintenance issues. Heating is good. Beds may not be comfortable for some.

It was a long way from the train station. The place was nice and we figured out how to take the bus to downtown.

Great property, perfect location especially without a vehicle. Easy access to supermarket, CBD activities. Felt safe, great value for money. Was obvious there had been a quick turn around between with light clean. Otherwise, can't fault it.

So close to the top of Cuba Street. Convenient location. Could be cleaner...place is a bit shaby but if you are here to explore Wellington then you will be out all day and mainly use this as a base just to sleep.

We enjoyed our stay, the location was close walking distance to the shops and restaurants on Cuba St. The unit was a little tired and not terribly clean. The heat pump control did not work and the property managers said they would get to it after our stay ended. Fortunately there were electric heaters to keep the place warm. The place was ok, but lacked warmth (literally and figuratively). We would not stay here again.

Overall my small group of friends enjoyed our stay at this flat. The location was excellent - so close to Cuba Street which is simply a happening place for all sorts of shops, eateries, pubs etc. The street terminates at the pier and other tourist sites nearby so a great choice for shopping, tourism, etc. We had a small snafu with the place not being cleaned between the prior tenant so we had to do some of our own cleaning/laundry on arrival (appears the housekeeper failed to show). But had great communication with the owners who waived our own housekeeping fee in return so it all worked out. Kitchen had all the amenities we needed to cook though the variety of take-away options on Cuba Street did limit our need. Beds were all comfortable. Only one shower, located in loft so not quite as convenient but certainly manageable and we knew this ahead of time. Did not use the balcony as the cloth coverings on the chairs were dirty, it rained a bit and truthfully the view is of a concrete wall so not all that appealing. Wished the unit included a parking space as that was a mild issue on arrival but later found a parking space right on the street and left the car there and it was fine for us as for on the weekend on-street parking free after like 6pm Fri until Mon 8am. Overall really liked the convenience of the place and its proximity to things on Cuba St. What the place lacked in curbside appeal it made up for in location so I don't have a problem recommending. All is as advertised and certainly a decent place to hang while in Wellington for several days.

Overall value for money but a little tired.

Value for money overall. Used tissues on the floor on arrival and kitchen and bathroom bins with rubbish in them. Unable to have guests for dinner which was a shame that it was assumed we would be partying. Our son's were in Wellington and it would have been nice to have been able to cook dinner for them.

Great mother’s-and-daughters trip!

James was a great host, it was very easy to communicate with him even months before our stay. The apartment was spacious and tidy, the beds and bedding were a let down but there were more than enough towels and cooking utensils. Just small improvements to make another guests stay ever better! Some breakfast cereals and milk would be a brilliant addition too. Location was close to all of the essentials, we walked along Cuba street to the waterfront daily. To finish off, the building and surrounding area was incredibly quiet so we all had great sleep over the whole weekend. Happy happy guests!

For our 3 day visit in Wellington this was a terrific apartment It’s spacious and both of the beds were comfortable. There is a huge window/door to a comfortable deck, but no view. It’s a quiet neighborhood right next to a big Asian grocery store and a great meat market. We walked from here to several tourist places including The Te Papa Museum, Parliament, Cable Car, Botanical Gardens, Harbourside Market, Mt Victoria Lookout, and of course, Cuba Street The only negatives are minor. There is a broken toilet seat downstairs, and the kitchen is stocked with the bare minimum of cookware. We would definitely stay here again.

Not on Cuba Street

The property manager was good with his communication however he did not let us know that the dishwasher was not working. The dishes that were in there were also not cleaned. Very flexible with check out time and this was fantastic. Please note: this apartment is not on Cuba street and the title Cuba Apartment is miss leading. Nice and spacious though, but needs to fix downstairs toilet.

Great location and apartment but in need of some attention

Great location and apartment but in need of some attention

This apartment is a great layout and design and a fabulous location. However its starting to look a bit tired...the downstairs toiletseat slides off and is so pokey it's almost impossible to get in and out. Main light in kitchen doesn't work, neither does extractor fan or light. Cutlery is a bit cheap and useless, the dining table is wobbly so it all just feels a bit flimsy. The WIFI and TV details on the check in info is incorrect and when we tried to contact the person via text for further instructions there was no response, nor was there a response to the email. However, up until and upon check in, the communication had been great. We still enjoyed our stay but probably wouldn't book it again.

Property was nice, however, a few minor points need attending to.

Property was nice, however, a few minor points need attending to.

We were unable to get Freeview channels in spite of contacting the owners, which was most disappointing as at the rate we were paying one expected everything to be perfect! The noisy ventilation in the lower bedroom could only be switched off by tripping a circuit breaker on the main switchboard. The upstairs bedroom needs bedside reading lamps as the only lighting available was the main quad lights. If one partner wanted to read the other one got the spotlight right in the eye. The info sheet should tell you where to get the parking permits (at the dairy down the road). Good points were the location, beds were comfy, kitchen was spotless, very little road noise.

Close to Cuba Street.

Close to Cuba Street. Outside space not very usable as dumpster and birds all over. Everything was clean. Downstairs 1/2 bath is smaller than airplane bathroom and needs a mirror in the worst way. Apt is most ideal for couple with or without one or two responsible aged children.
