We had four nights here in a 1 bedroom apartment. We thought it was great. The lady at reception was lovely and always cheery. The apartment was large enough for the 2 of us. The kitchen had what we needed. We didn't use the oven. I do agree with another review that a larger pot would be good though, as cooking pasta was challenging with the smaller pots. But for breakfast and lunch, it had everything we needed. We cooked a few basic dinners with no issues. The balcony is disappointing as it is only large enough to stand on; you cant sit out there on a chair. We were able to see the Sky Tower in the CBD and watched the NYE fireworks from our room. The bathroom was a great size and we had extra towels available. There was plenty of powder and detergent available for the sink, dishwasher and washing machine. There is a dryer and a clothes hoist for drying. The airconditioner was great and helped cool the apartment down quickly. The bedroom was small but the robe had plenty of rail space and some built in cabinets which was helpful. The bed was really comfortable. The bedside tables were too large for the room though and whilst one was able to be used normally, the other one had been turned to the side to fit into the space, making the shelving inaccessible. Our apartment faced the railway but trains were not operating during our stay so I can't comment too much on the noise. There wasn't much outdoor noise coming in though and the whole area is quiet. Newmarket is a great area for those who want to be slightly out of the city. There were plenty of good restaurants and shops nearby and is well serviced by trains and buses. Internet was great. It was fast and we could even use it whilst at the restaurants next door. We would happily stay here again.

Two of us stayed in a one bedroom apartment over Christmas. The rooms were clean, comfy bed and quiet. Plenty of washing powder etc. Parking was $20 per night in a secure car park. Kitchen ok, oven wasn't the best but it managed ok. Good location for getting around Auckland, train took 10 mins to the centre.
