Good location, clean serviced apartment, friendly people to deal with. Lots of space, room was set up nicely with TV that allowed you to watch from bed and from the chairs easily. Everything we needed to make food. Felt private and didn't feel like you would make to much noise for the neighbors.

I think a bed topper would make the bed more comfortable. I felt comfortable sleeping on the bed but the next accommodation we stayed at had a topper and elevated it, so that's more a suggestion not a criticism. Think it would have been good it the washing machine was free and there was a washing line to hang your stuff. ( can understand the dryer costing but would be good for washing machine to be free, or at least a way to get coins for washing machine on the premises).

Good size studio, mostly excellent facilities, especially the bathroom and size of the kitchenette

I had problem with the hob and couldn’t get it to operate. Unfortunately there didn’t appear to be any instructions to help. Fortunately I was able to use the microwave instead to prepare the meal so I didn’t need to get the assistance of the host. The check in was unusual - the office was a small unmanned space and I had to call the owner to confirm what unfit we were given. I’m not sure if that information was provided prior to our arrival but I couldn’t find any confirmation in the emails we were sent. The bed was a bit hard for us

1 bedroom apartment- Clean, tidy, modern and comfortable. Big beds and well equipped kitchenette with full size fridge, microwave and even a dishwasher. There was a tv in both the lounge and the bedroom - both with Sky Boxes.

Not enough parking. Not sure if people had guests over or several cars for one room. We had to park on the road; not a huge issue.

Great location, very comfortable stay with everything we needed.

The only thing I could fault was our room not being vacuumed or provided one. We stayed in the family room, and anyone with children knows how messy they can be. One of my children has a dust allergy so this could have helped with that. But other than that it was a very good stay!

The rooms were absolutely stunning.. the whole unit was.It was high end style, quality furniture ( the relaxing chairs especially), magnificent kitchenette and stunning bathroom. The main bedroom was separated from the lounge by the bathroom with a super king bed and 2 equally comfortable single beds in the main living, with the comfy chairs and a perfect sized dining area for 4 ( perfect if you need to work) and still so much space to move around. We arrived very late and our hosts left our apartment open for us.There was also a lovely courtyard for morning coffee . These apartments are truly upmarket and I would highly recommend anyone to stay. such a shame it was only for one night . A++

There is absolutely not one thing to dislike. it’s so central to the city and water and parking is right outside your front door!

good shower and comfortable bed. quiet.

No side table to put my coffee on. Having to put everything back where u found it for the benefit of the cleaners annoying. Too many things the client is expected to do to save operator money. This is the reason for not meeting my expectations.

Spotlessly clean with everything in its place, no mismatching or missing cookware or utensils. Everything looked new and has probably been completely refreshed in the last 6-12 months. I think the only items not new were the chairs, but they were still comfy enough. Definitely top of the list for booking next time we travel to New Plymouth.

The weather up the mountain, but hey, it's a mountain...

Great and friendly staff The room looks newly renovated and all the homewares feel good quality You can charge your EV at your Unit but you have to BYO cable. It’s $10 per day to charge

There’s a bit of smell in the room I stayed not sure where that was coming from

We’ve stayed at the Strand several times, with other family as well. Beautiful and clean and great location for us. Have tried to book other times but it’s always fully booked which is a great sign so we were very happy to have had been able to come back this time 😍

Room was clean and tidy. Recently renovated kitchen and bathroom. Check in (and out) was straightforward. Walking distance to the beach.

The uneven floor surfaces caused a few stubbed toes (especially going jnto the tiled bathroom). No way to dry jackets etc that can’t go in the dryer. A clothes airer or line outside would be good. Servicing was very minimal (changing towels only).
