- Angelo Gabrielle (10/5): Amazing - Cleanliness N/A
- Stephen (8/5): Good central location - A good location , 7/8 minute walk to town centre with numerous bars and restaurants .
There is a pub a 5 minute walk from the hotel in the opposite direction.
It appears to be student accommodation, but we had no issues regarding noise or anything to disturb us .
Staff were friendly and helpful. Our room , for two people, only had a desk , no table for eating on , even though there were cooking facilities in the room .
- MacLaren (8/5): The lady in Reception was delightful & welcoming - most things The cooking area. Not enough work area. The bench could have been longer with the microwave in a elevated position.
Not enough power outlets.
- William (9/5): -
- Liz (7/5): Student accomodation - Great location Other tenants were noisy through the corridors.
Pillows were too soft, had no substance
- Daniel (7/5): - Good cooking facilities. Bedrooms well sized. smaller living space, very institutional feel. One apartment in large group. Inwards view. Not easy access with bags - multiple doors/stairs/corners.
- Shortie7 (9/5): - Dass es ein backrohr gegeben hat und es war sehr gemütlich Dass es im Erdgeschoss war und viele hineingeschaut haben und dass uns das Klopapier ausgegangen ist
- Victor Boab (3/5): Live and learn.. Don't scrimp on price. - The room had most necessary things and was clean to begin with. Location to nelspnncity was handy. The bed was atrocious!. Didn't sleep for 3x nights. It was a double, not queen, was uneven and incredibly uncomfortable. We took turns sleeping on the floor.
The room was never serviced and the front desk was rarely manned.
- Kim (8/5): - It's was nice and clean, and close to town,
- Singh (10/5): Excellent customer service - Location was perfect Nothing
- Toni (10/5): - Fantastic service
- Doug (7/5): It suited our requirements. We were quite happy - Location, room layouts, beds Had trouble with the TV. Some crockery and cutlery didn't match the number staying (4)
- brenda (8/5): central quiet and convenient - central to most things we wanted to
attend no lifts as were on the third floor and we had to carry our suitcases up the steps
- Courtney (10/5): The manager lady super friendly, inviting and helpful. They let us check in early! Was great! - Close to everything. Enough space. Having a kitchen
- Michael (7/5): Great manager and location, but light and loud! - The manager is friendly, cheerful and eager to help. The location is great and the rooms are clean. Unexpectedly loud neighbours screaming, laughing and having really loud conversations at all the hours of the night and early morning. The blinds also don't really shut out the light, bring a mask if that bugs you.
- Marie (6/5): - Proximité du centre ville à pied: derrière la cathédrale.
Parking devant la résidence.
Grande salle de bain.
Propreté de la chambre et de la vaisselle.
Propreté des locaux communs.
Bien que petit, il y a de quoi déposer des affaires dans 4/5 casiers et quelques cintres. Plus 1 chambre étudiant qu'1 appartement hotel.
Seulement 1 chaise pour 2 personnes, 1 fauteuil. Pas de table pour déjeuner mais 1 bureau contre le mur: pas très pratique ni confortable.
Kitchenette très étroite, au pied du lit.
- Samantha (5/5): - Location is close to city centre. Appartement was really dark, and lacks any warmth. Purely utilitarian. No window in the bathroom. Kitchen was really basic so we decided to go out.
- Sandy (10/5): Right from the get go Leah in the reception was very friendly and explained everything to us. The room had everything we - Clean and tidy and close to town
- Libby (6/5): -

- Sandy (8/5): Overall good a little noisy but it’s that time of the year. - Great central location Kitchen was satisfactory but needed a chopping board and dishwasher brush. Small complaint I know but I was on dishes.
- Nathan (8/5): Very good thanks - Location, bed
- Puneeth (7/5): -
- Per (7/5): - Great location, friendly service. Room was basic but functional. Free street parking just outside. Short walk to queen's gardens, cafe's and shops. Very quiet area. Some noice from the front door which was just outside our room. The door slammed shut every time someone used it.
- Rachelle (10/5): Bloody good, slightly high in price but it was new years so understandable - I missed her name but the kiwi lady who checked us in was absolutely amazing, one of the friendliest most helpful people I’ve ever come across. Went above and beyond, couldn’t be more stoked with her service. Super chill and down to earth too, such a cool chick Can’t fault it
- Jalal (6/5): quite expenisve for the size of the apartment and facilities, apart from location - the location was good very near to city center and other amenities, however these are student apartments , so very basic facilities. the lighting was very poor in all rooms . and the air vent/exhaust in the bathroom was very small to take all steam out while shower is running. room lighting very low, very compact rooms and beds.

- Mylene (10/5): - Very comfortable bed and close to everything,staff so helpful Everything is beautiful we love the place, the only problem was there is no left to carry the luggage to go up and down, the rest is beautiful
- Klára (6/5): - Enough for a short stay Older equipment, looks like an older students dormitory
It would be great to have salt and pepper, when there’s kitchen
Also no space for meal prep in the kitchenette
- Peter (8/5): -
- Heather (5/5): Average - The door didn’t lock properly & we had an unexpected visitor
- sharron (8/5): It was pleasant - On Saturday night a group of people were outside the apartment until 2am very noisy Apartment did not let in a lot of natural light
- Helen (10/5): - Friendly, clean, comfortable, close to town and staff friendly
- Alison (8/5): -
- Paul (5/5): Friendly , helpful staff. Great price, but didn't realise 'apartment ' meant student accomodarion. - Location to code was excellent. Pleasant neighborhood. The information about the apartment didn't mention it was student accomodation. Although the rooms were clean , it was rather a tight space for 4 adults and kitchen area was tiny. Not really an apartment. No lifts for ease of getting suitcases upstairs - especially for older folks with restricted mobility.
Walls very thin - so noises from adjacent rooms could be heard easily.
- Rudy (8/5): Prima plek om een paar nachten in Nelson te verblijven. - Vriendelijke ontvangst en goede uitleg. Niets speciaals
- Jonathan (7/5): - Two bedrooms. Clean linen. Quiet when we were there.

- Waldemar (8/5): -
- Karen (10/5): - Handy for us Nothing
- Zoé D (4/5): Disappointed - Location. Very central. Friendly staff. Very disappointed with the kitchen equipment. The whole point of us booking an appartement that, it was said on the ad, featured an actual kitchen, was to enjoy having an actual kitchen. We tried cooking with the very little equipment provided and had a disastrous experience. It took ages for the stove top to actually cook our food, and the lack of something as simple as a strainer made cooking pasta very difficult. There is also almost zero space so chopping an onion is a challenge. Won't book again.

- Padraig21 (8/5): Very good -
- Criscelda (7/5): Good -
- Brent (10/5): Nelson inner city stay - Friendly service,great location and clean rooms.
- Megan (8/5): Very good - Very central. Comfortable bed. Clean bathroom. Compact but very adequate kitchenette I was woken up on Friday night by drunk young people talking extremely loudly in the corridor for a long time so not good sound proofing
- Alicia (8/5): Great base to explore Nelson - Very well priced for a pretty central location - easy to walk around the city from here. Helpful at reception. Everything you need for a stay. Noise from other guests/residents a little annoying
- Lauritz (8/5): Nice clean accommodation with all amenities including kitchenette. Comfy bed. The outdoor light needs adjustment as it f - A nice room in what appeared to be a university dormitory setting. Nicely equipped with modest appliances for home food preparation.
Clean with comfortable bed. My only dislike was a halogen light outside which shone brightly into the room causing me to have the shades drawn the entire stay. And it flickered all the night as well.
- Tyra (8/5): Very good -
- Chandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Norma (8/5): Very good -
- Matt (6/5): Pleasant -
