Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The Residence - Fitzroy: the location was convenient and the host is so organised from the communications to check in and check out. Everything was meticulously explained and the apartment was so clean and comfortable. Thank you.
The apartment was nice, warm and super clean. I love how comfortable the beds were, these apartments are a great home away from home and exceptional value for money.
The place if lovely and has a feeling of luxury
Everything was great
All good.. nice house, comfy beds, comfortable environment.. no complaints.. instructions given straight forward and we enjoyed our stay.
Nothing. Just love it
Cleanliness location
Nothing
Great communication after booking, very comfortable beds and so clean. Also the location was great
The stairs 🤣
All very good.
The unit was very well equipped, very clean, comfortable and within walking distance to the beach.
Not a lot of natural light reaching into the apartment. The bedroom window is at street level exactly where vehicles stop at a traffic light. It only took a couple of motorbike drivers that want to be as loud as possible and I couldn't sleep through.
Well-appointed modern apartment with everything you need whether on business or pleasure.
No issues at all
Very well presented unit. Beautiful bathroom
Great space and convenient to restaurants. Everything was clean and tidy. Bed was comfortable, great having a TV in the bedroom as well. Even though it's next to a main road and a pub, couldn't really hear any noise. The double shower was a bonus. Having a dual washer/dryer was good but the clothes came out smelling musty so not sure if the washing machine need servicing?
The only negative was the very bright exit light above the door, it's pretty obvious that this is the exit since it's the only way in or out so not sure why there is the need for the sign. The brightness means you have to close the bedroom doors which in turn made the bedroom quite warm and stuffy.
Lovely clean, modern and tidy apartment. It was located in an easy to find location, a short drive from the city centre. The instructions to get in were clear and easy. The bed was super comfy and it had a nice bathroom. Perfect for our overnight stay.
Great kitchen, easy entry, huge bathroom and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
From photos I thought it had a separate bedroom so was surprised not to have separate room and TV hard to use if you are not used to smart TVs.
Nice layout and appointment of style and decor
Slightly compact but comfy
Property was new, quiet & good layout.
Really needed fans or air conditioning in the bedrooms. Nights were oppressively hot
Spacious, clean and tidy and everything we needed.
The location suited us, all amenities close bye.
A small stove/cooker would have been useful.
Lovely apartments. Really well appointed and beautifully presented. Clean and luxurious.Highly recommend.

Clean and good amenities. As described.
Sofa bed not comfortable
Don't book this place. There is no sound-proofing whatsoever between floors. It was HELL for sleep. By all means try it out but we'll never be back. It was also GARBAGE value for money. I've been holidaying with my now 11 3/4yr old since he was 6...he didn't like it. And he's not even fussy.
Lovely clean modern apartment with all my requirements for a work stay. Close to the beach for evening walks. Would recommend
Room 4 was a little dark even if sunny outside, not a big problem when the beach is just down the road .Some facecloths would have been nice but again not essential.
Good location, clean, comfortable studio apartment
Great location
A well-equipped apartment that is great base for work trips. Rooms are modern and amenities are quality fixtures. Quiet and well located with shop nearby and walking distance to the beach.
Location Modern- bright and light crisp and clean- decor lush- wonderful bed- bedding was fresh and felt luxurious - amazing shower- shower pressure delicious- lovely bathroom amenities - tv in both lounge and bedroom - all over brilliant facility!!
A slight hic cup with room not being ready at time of check in …Comms from management was appreciated and we were offered free coffee from near by cafe (sadly unable to take offer as we left before cafe opened following day)
Very clean and comfortable
Nothing .
The apartment was clean and comfortable, with enough room for our party of six. I would definitely recommend this apartment.
Everything was great.
Great stay . No complaints
Host is very responsive.
Amazing apartment, location is so central and convenient. Staff are friendly too! Easy communication with great host, everything is appreciated. Also very easy walk to shops and cafes.
Nice clean and modern
I don’t like mattress toppers, they make the bed sag. Just be aware, some rooms are upstairs.
Very happy with our stay at the Residence - Fitzroy. The room was modern spacious and clean, with everything we need from cooking to doing laundry. The location was also perfect.
The exit sign above the front door was exceptionally bright at night. It is understandable it's for the safety requirement, but a dimmer feature or a way to turn off in case of emergency would be nice.
Nice and clean
Nice apartment. three beds and very confortable. TV available for kids.Tidy and clean. Location is good too.
Only one bathroom and toilet. Dryer machine did't work. Rubbish bin too small.
The location is convenient.
Only one bathroom for 3 bedrooms i.e 6 people is definitely not enough. Can’t find parking slot always full. Outside rubbish bin is full full and nobody empty it.
Excellent modern accommodation. We had everything we needed including cooking amenities. Otherwise there are quite a few cafes, bakeries and restaurants within walking distance. Will stay there again.

Fabulous location for the beach and walkway, and to the fabulous Fitzroy kiosk. Lovely clean, modern and comfortable home. Can’t wait to come back
we loved the location, easy to acess and get in the residence. Easy parking, close by to the beach and main street. We could quickly jump in the car ride couple minutes down the main road to get something to eat. Or enjoy a walk by the beach for about an hour to the center. Clean, modern, had all the facilities. Perfect!
We enjoyed our stay in Apartment 8. It is upstairs which might not suit some, but it is beautifully furnished and super clean. We found the location exceplenty and we weren't bothered by noise. The bed was comfortable with lovely sheets and pillows. The iron and ironing board and the hair dryer were well used as we were going to a wedding! All in all a very enjoyable stay.

Roomy ground floor apartment 1. Very comfy bed, all facilities needed for a good stay. The location is really good with cafes pizza and takeaways close by, plus some interesting decor shops and a great shoe shop! Not far away is the photogenic Te Rewarewa footbridge and walk around Lake Rotomanu connecting to the coastal walk.
It was a bit gloomy for easy reading. Maybe because some of the lightbulbs need replacing. An easy fix. No wash cloths provided , luckily we had our own. The towels were superb though. 👌
The location was excellent.
There was an apparent miscommunication between the owner and Bookings.com regarding the size of the room and I would not have booked it if I had known how small the room was.
The location is handy to shoping and access to the highway , it is also quite and a plesent place to stay
The only complaint we have is that the air con in the bedroom could be more efficent , or another split aircon could be added as we needed to run the split in the lounge to help cool the bedroom at night
Staff were easily reachable and check in instructions were easy and clear.
Thought my room came with washer and dryer as per the description on bookings.com we had lots of laundry that we needed to clean that’s one of the reasons why we chose this property.
La calidad del lugar fue excelente. Es accesible a la costa y a cafeterias, restaurantes y supermercados. LA seguridad en el area y la tranquilidad del lugar.
Clean central for our stay great facilities

The apartment was well appointed, modern and spotless. Only downside is the very bright "Exit" sign, need to have bedroom doors closed at night, as it lights up the apartment. Not sure why this sign is in the apartment at all.
Location
Kitchen utensils are in bad shape. Kitchen floor is soapy like someone spilled detergent over it. Kitchen floor is not very clean too. Main door is jammed and need force to open and close it.
Close to shops and pub across the road as well as Liquid laundry. Short walk to beach and park.
Electronic door lock did not work and was 3/4 hour late to work after finally contacting someone to get a key to lock the unit we were staying in.
It was spacious enough for four people. The layout of the apartment. Good size main bedroom
Was only one negative. Only one bathroom with toilet inside bathroom. Either two toilets or separate would have been great.
Garden was nice.
There was hair in the room, I assume from thr cleaner, also there was hair in the towel also, The floor was stickey. Coffee machine would be great
