We had a great stay here. Our apartment was very spacious, it had a separate sitting area, a kitchenette with a 2-burner convection cook-top, kettle, toaster, cooking dishes and nice quality plates/silverware/glasses, a small dining table, and a larger than average bathroom with a washer/dryer and a large shower. The mattress was the firmest of the trip thus far. I liked how the bedroom was separate from the kitchen and the living area, if you had one person who wants to sleep off jetlag and another who wants to stay up, the layout is ideal for this.
I had requested a unit on the upper floors since some of the reviews on TripAdvisor had complained about street noise; we were on the 10th floor and it wasn't a problem until Sat night when we could still hear some noise from the party-ers on street level, but it wasn't loud enough to keep us awake. The apartment was extremely clean and perfectly fine. The European washer/dryer combo was a pain however... It was extremely noisy to run and took forever to figure out how to use it, and it also took forever to do a load of wash and to dry it (3 hours total for a 3 KG load). And the clothes came out wrinkled, probably all because I stuffed it too full... Great location close to restaurants and shopping. I'm really surprised that others complained about dirt, our unit was impeccable. It was a great value for the money and we spent a lot of time researching where to stay in Wellington, and were happy with our stay here. Our only issue was that it didn't have a typical reception area that is open late, and when we got back at 10:00 pm one night, the front desk was closed.
