My husband I were so impressed with this studio apartment. The space was functional, the design efficient. We had lots of storage space, and the washer and dryer were a big bonus. We stayed here for six nights, and did not run out of things to see and do in the Dunedin area. Special thanks to Cecilia, the lovely host, who greeted us so warmly. We really enjoyed meeting her. We highly recommend this accommodation.

The perfect secret hideaway in the heart of dunedin. I loved the gardens and the space to sit out. The property had everything you could possibly need and a lovely welcome from Cecylia too.

Good location. It didn’t meet expectations. The 3 bedroom unit we were in did not have two bathrooms. It had one with a seperate shower room. Only one toilet. 2 couples travelling together and we expected 2 complete bathrooms as advertised. Manager did not return calls we made. Beds very soft. We would not return.

We needed somewhere for Mum and daughter to stay for a couple of night while we checked out Otago University Open Day. Short roll down the hill to the university or the Octagon so perfectly placed. Room was compact but not overly so; decent bathroom, superb shower, comfy large bed, dressing room/wardrobe/storage area very handy, quietest kettle I've ever heard, warm room, heated towel rails, heat pump, clear. Lovely host, very very amenable and helpful. Would definitely go back.

We did a lot of walking (uphill to get home) as we did not have a car. Recommend hiring a car, which is difficult if you do not arrive through the airport.

Great Apartment.
The apartment was excellent. We were upgraded to a larger apartment. Complimentary chocolate block and special coffee greeted us on arrival. This was a very comfortable apartment. The bed was great, shower cubicles very good and the lounge, dining room and kitchen made the stay very comfortable. WiFi was very good. Restaurants are down the hill. The hill is steep, however, if you have a car, drive down the hill. Would recommend and we would stay there again.

Handy for those visiting uni students, being about halfway between student accommodation and the city centre. Neat and tidy apartment, with a welcome arrival pack of Cadburys and coffee. Also really appreciated the after service, with our lost Kindle being recovered and posted back. Great work by Natalya!

The best stay of our NZ trip.
This was an excellent stay, complete with Easter egg and freshly ground coffee. Spotlessly clean, walking distance into town, parking outside our door, private enclosed patio , beautiful view of mature trees as the iconic Home Olveston with its magical garden is directly across the road. The location is very quiet and peaceful. The proprietor has thought of everything. It was also the best value for money during our trip. We were there for five nights. If you are in Dunedin, I highly recommend this self catering property.

Great centrally placed apartment/house
We arrived a little bit early and they were still cleaning the apartment. The owner was a very nice lady and recommended several places to try for coffee and also dinner. She also recommended other areas of Dunedin to visit for attractions etc. Nice spacious apartment/house. The beds were very comfy and it was lovely and quiet at night. There were two showers/bathrooms but only one toilet which was fine for us (family of 3) but there are three bedrooms so potentially there could be 6 guests which would be difficult with just one toilet. Nice fully equipped kitchen and there was coffee and tea. They had also put some milk in the fridge which was great for when we first arrived as we could have a hot coffee straight away. Very centrally placed for walking into Dunedin town centre and the walk back (uphill) all the way, helped walk off some of the delicious food available in the town.

Hard to find not worth finding
Upgraded don't know why but living room had an awful smell. Springs had gone in the Settee. So couldn't watch TV as it wouldn't adjust. Bathroom clean but like living area needed updating. Classed as luxury accommodation. Not quite sure where it was.

Quiet apartment on a hill
Very comfortable apartment with all amenities - king bed, microwave, fridge, washing machine, television (although I never did work out how to turn it on). Situated in a quiet lane, on a steep hill. Very steep, if walking is your means of getting around. The hill is the only thing that would make me hesitate staying there again.

Pleasantly Surprised
We had booked a 1 bedroom apartment, and were upgraded to a 3 bedroom apartment at no extra charge. The owner was lovely, couldn't do enough for us. Checked to make sure we were comfortable and that our internet was working well, which it was. We will be booking the Heriot Lane Apartments next year. Was lovely and quiet no student or street noise. Thanks for the great accommodation!
