Unique

This place is spectacular. Small but just about perfect, has to be seen to be believed!

A few more things for cleaning up would have been helpful

Great location, could be better

The kitchen side of the apartment was well equipped. There is a great view over the bay both from the balcony and the bed. Not too far to walk in to the main part of Wellington and a few decent places to eat nearby. The bed was very comfortable.

The fridge was really noisy and seemed to come on all night. It was advertised with breakfast but all that was provided was one small loaf of bread, 1 individual portion of butter and a few individual portions of jam. We actually went to a cafe just down the road and had a lovely breakfast. The shower is also very compact, I'm only 5ft tall and found it claustrophobic, so can't imagine what it would be like for someone of 6ft plus.

Zimmer mit super Aussicht aber auch Mankos ...

Der Ausblick toppt alles. Auffahrt zum Appartement per Cable Car, genaue Beschreibung vom Hausherrn, hat super geklappt. Ausreichend Parkplätze auf der Straße. Am Wochenende umsonst. In der Woche muss man bezahlen. Wir waren am Wochenende da 😉. Ca. 20 bis 25 Minuten Fußweg in die City.

Frühstück zum selbermachen, bestehend aus Toastbrot und Einzelportionen Butter und Himbeermarmelade (hat nicht gereicht), Kaffee und Tee und eine Packung Milch. Man kommt besser, wenn man ohne Frühstück bucht und sich im sehr gut sortierten New World Supermarkt versorgt. Beleuchtung war teilweise defekt, von vier Deckenlampen funktionierte nur eine, bei den Leselampen auch. W-Lan ist zwar angeblich vorhanden, aber lt. Aussage des Vermieters wetterabhängig. Wir hatten wahrscheinlich ungünstiges Wetter, also kein Internet ☹️.

Great location, fantastic views, a lovely stay!

Location and views are fantastic, the cable car ride up to the apartment is definitely unique. Hosts were very responsive and gave very clear instructions. It was nice to have some basic breakfast items included/available at the apartment. Overall a really great stay!

Grandiose Aussicht

Die Aussicht ist ein Traum. Man fährt mit einem Cablecar, was man erst zwischen den Häusern finden muss, den Berg hinauf und hat von der Unterkunft aus einen fantastischen Blick.

Good experience for a couple of nights. Great view and location.

Great location and view. Cable car access was unique and fun.

Better wifi would help us rate it 10/10. Needs to consider wifi extender or internet over power or something,

Sensational location with amazing harbour view

Amazing view, cable car access

Didn't have working air-conditioning and it got really hot in the afternoon sun, overly soft bed, windows were grubby and the outside plants needed some TLC

A nice wellington surprise

The view from the room was spectacular 😊 The location was great. Parking was convenient. In the afternoon it got very hot and there didn't seem to be any air conditioner but other than that it was comfortable and great

Friends trip

Amazing view that was key for a weekend away. Bed was super comfy, clean and nice and big for friends sharing a bed

We got given 1 towel each for a 3 night stay. Bathroom was tiny couldn't even get dressed in there but clean and functional. Cable car was a daunting long way up... we stood there for some time getting through the details to get up there, but enjoyed riding it in the end

I travel to Wellington for work regularly and usually stay in inner city hotels but I will definitely be back.

The view was breathtaking, the private cable car a unique experience and room itself cosy and well equiped.

The owners had left a loaf of Vogels bread for breakfast but no butter or spreads.

Beautiful views and comfy stay.

The view was so amazing! The unit was easily accessible by cable car. The unit was clean and very comfortable. Breakfast included cereal, bread, butter, jam, milk, tea and coffee. We had a very enjoyable stay. Owner was very responsive to messages.

Great spot on the cycle highway between the airport and the centre of town.

I absolutely loved the frozen burrito! It was just what I needed one evening. Loved the view, and the novelty of needing to use the cable car. The underfloor heating kept it nice and warm.

I would have liked hot chocolate to be available, as well as an alternate tea (Earl Grey only appeals to some people). Also some other spreads (e.g. peanut butter, marmite, honey) would have been nice.

Terrific experience, recommended to fifty people already!

We were riveted by the splendid harbour view from the patio or indeed the whole room, for morning coffee, afternoon tea and night bubbles, and tickled to find binoculars provided. Lovely generous amount of milk and muesli, bread, butter and jams for breakfast.

Only wish is for a luggage rack so we could tidy the ‘floordrobe’

Cable car was not operational when we came home at 10.30pm. Lucky we could use the original stairs to get to studio otherwise could have been a major problem.

Very good

Loved the view, cool cable car, excellent comm from the owner, very comfy bed and lovely outdoor space. Good value. Easy to park in parade public parks opposite the entrance for free at the weekend.

The bathroom was very, very small. The garden was full of weeds. But everything else was awesome.
