Wellesley Student Apartments (WSA) - Auckland University of Technology (AUT)

This review is considering the absolute outrageous price for the state of these student apartments.Management don't care about you or your needs at all. They do all they can to save money and cover their own backs.Many things are stated to be provided for students, such as kitchen ware and garbage bags, but is never provided.The general state of the apartments is absolutely terrible. Old building with bad floors. The suction in the kitchen doesn't work. There is no heating in the rooms besides from a towel heater that management mention as your heater"

My life was a shambles before i came here, but once i met the Goats Billy Forrest and Big Chris Jansen my life really turned around and gave my life purpose

The building administration doesn't give a damn about you or your complaints. It's dirty, it's strict and the apartments all have some problems, big or small. A lot of people are complaining about a constant ringing sound at night time, a lot of us arrived to a dirty apartment and the building is just faulty in general. Especially the elevators. The only positive thing is being social.

Best student apartments for AUT students . The community and facilities over there is too good. The bookings are through online portal only. Only problem I saw is, they mention different types of rooms in the online portal and they charge huge amount for those rooms but in reality all rooms are same, same facilities, shared bathrooms only.

Good option for AUT students to consider for accommodation within the campus (or within walking distance to the university). Very friendly staff (most of the student advisors/staff are AUT students staying in WSA itself).One will enjoy staying in this place if they get friendly flat mates (else it'll be nightmares). It all depends on how you influence your good/bad qualities to your roommates.The only issue is during the summer stays - it's quite dead or not lively as most of the students/occupants are away on vacation. However, it's very much affordable during the summer stays ($210/per week for 2 months).

these apartments always smell weird, no matter what you do. for student accommodation, the prices are extortionate and its disgusting. rooms are stuffy, doors automatically slam, and you can literally hear everything from above and below. move to the suburbs and save yourself before its too late...

Was unsure of where I was heading in life and whether I should go to uni or start a forklifting career but met the goats louis pinker-Meihana, big Chris and billy forest then I knew I should drop out of highschool and study law

Was unsure on how I felt but then I met the goat Louis Pinker-Meihana. That's when I knew I peaked in life.

Good view from the upper floors, the location and social life are the only good things about the place, apart from that there are lot's of things to be improved.1) There is often something not working. Elevators, washing machines, dryers for start.2) Heaters in rooms are far too weak to make the room comfortable when a bit cold (so suggesting turning it off for energy consumption reduction is out of question)3) Kitchen equipment is extremely poor, there wasn't even cutting board or normal knife in the appartment. The common kitchen downstairs has to be booked which is quite annoying, especially considering it's really not worth it as the equipment is not much better, just very basic stuff at your disposition.4) While some staff members appear seems helpful, I asked them to resolve an issue in our appartment cca five times, for two months nothing happened, no sign of change and the issue remains unresolved...5) Other problems with the building like water leaking inside even with closed windows.It is nice being offered small things such as candies or free meal from time to time, but that just doesn't make it worth the money - far too expensive for what you are getting here. Not really recommended.

Rooms are hardly cleaned. Poor communication with staff. Cleaners have thrown food away when still staying in room. Security staff are pretty boy thugs looking for a fight. Wouldn't recommend place to anyone
