Should have directions for the washer. Also, office hours are only until 5, so make sure you are there. Our room did not lock, so they had to give us a different room. I’m happy staff was still there.

King bed was small, needed updating. Car parking across the road cost $105 but we parked in wrong spot & we’re fined $190 by carpark owner, very expensive for us & the hotel should reimburse us $105 as we didn’t use their specific spots

These apartments are in an excellent location, just around the corner from Te Papa and across the road from the waterfront. Lots of nice eateries within a short walk too. The apartment was well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The balcony had views of the waterfront and was a lovely spot. We would definitely stay here again if coming back to Wellington.
