“This property's main advantage is location, being a short walk from the lakefront and Queenstown's center; the in-house tour desk helps with local excursions.

private parkingeasy accessclean apartmentsmall bathroomdoor delaminationslow draining
I appreciated the private parking. It offered easy access through a gate. The apartment was very clean.. it also had plenty of room. The view of the bustling nightlife from the deck was enjoyable.
The downstairs bathroom felt small. I noticed signs of wear and tear. For example, the doors were delaminating. The bathroom looked tired, and the basin drained slowly.

The hotel is close to the town centre. The bed provided great comfort . A laundry room is available, very useful for longer trips. The kitchen had pots, pans, and plates, though i did not cook anything elaborate.
I noticed some noise from people in the corridor at times. The doors have basic locks. Parking spots are narrow.

the apartment had a great location. it was easy to walk into town from there. Free parking was also available, a nice bonus.
The apartment lacked security. the door had a very simple push knob lock, which I found concerning. i could also hear people coming and going in the building. It was often quite noisy.
