Carrington Central - townhouse in New Plymouth CBD

Good Location

The place was extremally dirty and many of the items including the shower, bathroom's sink and front door were very dated and barely worked/ worked terribly. Some major renovations needed here.

Tidy house. Good space.

Smell of secondhand smoke in one of the bedrooms.

A very nice clean and comfy apartment. Being on a busy road, it is a bit noisey. Has everything you need, including a washing machine. A clothes horse would be good for cold dull days.

Getting in was a problem. We had no email telling us how to get the key. I rung the place who looks after the apartment, but no answer. Rung again, no answer, so rung the other number in Auckland which was booking.com.After sitting in drive for over half an hour I looked at my emails to re read what I’d been sent. No mention of key access. Finally, after half an hour I received two emails, telling us directions on how to get to apartment and code for key. A little later a call from booking.com, from Singapore asking if we’d got in. I said yes and the lady said we had been sent an email. I said no we weren’t. She proceeded to say yes you did. I said the only email we got was over half an hour after we arrived. Not good enough, especially if you had travelled a long way.
