The room was convenient and had everything you need in a small space. Parking station next door over priced and very narrow to drive and reverse the car. There needed to be another entry to the car park other than the car entry. Finding the reception area on the 2nd floor was a bit odd and we struggled a bit with our luggage but overall it was a good clean and convenient place to stay overnight.

I loved my stay here. I was on a solo trip and wanted to budget certain portions so my hotel was part of it during my stay in Auckland. I felt safe, taken care of by staff, and breakfast was quite good! You are close to everything downtown and can walk as well which is also great for solo travel.

Enjoyed the accommodation but found the service when booking in was rude and abrupt, I did not feel welcomed. Basically everything was just too hard what how I felt when checking in. Information listed on the website about parking was incorrect and caused issues for journey as well as information about getting taxi at 4am etc again we were given incorrect information with not a lot of options at 4am in the morning to get to an international flight.

Location walkable to everything in city. Safe . Quiet. Breakfast in price of room. Bacon barely cooked. But could ask for crispy bacon which came out cold. But overall would stay again. Helpful staff. Maintenance man very helpful when we couldn't open our luggage lock. Quick taxi service when departing. Bed comfy. AC working. Room compact but enough to sleep room for 2 to move around. Bathroom walls are glass so if u happy to be watched showering its the place to go.
