Great location
Spacious one bedroom in very well located Arena building. We come to Newcastle regularly and have stayed in several apartments in this building, this is a well-equipped spacious one at the front with ocean views. Yes the scaffolding is up at the moment but with so much to do in the vicinity you won't spend much time there anyway! FOLLO are great to work with. Would definitely stay again.
