It was a well located, excellent place to stay. Clean and quiet with lots of space.
Pros:

There was no breakfast, that was fine. The apartment was quiet and clean. Good air conditioning. Enough hot water for shower.

Cons:

The shower unit is plastic and the floor can be slippery. Shower mat, perhaps?

Prettige en comfortabele plek voor een bezoek aan Wellingtonn
Pros:

Mooie ruime kamer met alle nodige faciliteiten, zelfs een wasmachine met wasmiddel

Cons:

Lag enigszins buiten het centrum, ongeveer tien minuten lopen, maar wel handig bij uitvalswegen en vlakbij de veerboot naar Zuidereiland

AN EXCELLENT STAY IN A GOOD LOCATION
Pros:

Our stay at Quest on Thornton was excellent. The location is a short walk to two pubs and the dockyard area where there are some excellent restaurants. The room was big, comfortable, with excellent air conditioning and there is a washing machine and dryer, both of which we used. The bathroom was very good. Staff were helpful. An excellent 2 night stay - we have been here before. Value is also very good.

Cons:

Nothing

Lovely clean stay, very close to the wharf and the shopping area.
Pros:

Lovely large room, very nicely decorated. It was great having a washer and dryer within the suite, very convenient.

Cons:

One small thing, a larger vanity in the bathroom would have been nicer.
