Columbia Apartments

You get a very very small single bedroom in a two bedroom shared apartment with a very small kitchen and bathroom. It’s basically student accommodation - dorms. The layout of the room can be quite cramped, squeezed into desk, chair, bed, etc. Overall rather an uncomfortable feeling, you may have to re-arrange furniture to accommodate. Cleanliness was hit and miss. Asked staff to clean, just ignored. You get what you pay for. Good location and price for dbl tho if on tight budget

The overall rating outcome is probably harsh but in a nut shell; - staff are rude, they can’t be bothered to make eye contact. - atmosphere; non existent. This is a student accommodation people literally only sleep here. - you get a kitchen to share with another bedroom but it’s so small & there are no common areas. But... this place is very clean, shower is excellent, the price is cheap & location is about 15 mins walk to CBD. If you’re here for a short time & want privacy this place is ideal.

Very close to student housing, but very safe feeling. We stayed just two nights on our way our of Auckland and it felt like it was a good deal for the price we paid.
