Overall a great place to stay. Very clean and nice up to date decor. Staff very friendly. Well equipped. Downsides were no aircon so was too warm overnight. And everytime someone showered the plumbing system made loud sound like a foghorn which woke us up and was at an intrusive pitch. If you’re not bothered about that then this place is good value for money and in a great location for walking around the city.

No AC, most power sockets didn’t work, both sky tvs didn’t have any reception so no tv, no one asked how stay was when key was dropped off and fan in the bathroom didn’t work so everything in bathroom got soaked during shower. Overall spend your $180 staying somewhere better

It started off poorly right at check in. On the Expedia app it’s clearly advertised as “parking available”, which is one of the reasons I picked this hotel. Little do you know, you have to read the fine print and parking is limited. The hotel staff then proceeded to tell me she didn’t know what to do because she just returned from a vacation herself. I will also add here that the bathroom had mold all over the shower and there is clearly a musty smell, just disgusting. The next morning, this same employee (Tamara) proceeded to call our hotel room at 7:00am multiple times just to say parking isn’t advertised as available. We go to the front desk on our way out and she continues to say parking still isn’t available. She gave us horrible attitude and essentially told us off, HORRIBLE customer service. We return to the hotel just before 8:00pm and a different front desk employee offers us parking for additional $40 a day when we have now already paid to park the car elsewhere.

Lovely place to stay!

We had a brilliant few days staying in an apartment here. The room had everything we needed and was very comfy :) Only slight criticism is that the gym was quite small and would be better with a simple bench and some dumbbells, but overall the hotel was great!

Check in was easy and staff were very friendly. We booked this property to do laundry before crossing over to the south island. Laundry machine was a 2in1 and small unit so we could only do a partial load and it had trouble drying so we ended up hanging and laying everything out overnight. Room was noisy and our window was broken which was letting more noise in. I believe there was a concert the night we stayed - luckily we were so tired that day that we were able to fall asleep despite the show. Bathroom was very small and there were stains on the carpet probably from previous guests cooking as there was a bit of a cooking smell coming from the hall. Had to park on the street but it was free for the time we were there so we just made sure to bring everything in with us for security. Overall it was fine for a quick stop.
