Although two guests checked in, only one bathrobe was provided in the room. There were also no toothbrushes—while I understand that many hotels in New Zealand may not offer these by default, most five-star hotels do provide them without request. Additionally, the air conditioning was very noisy. Even though we set it to 24°C and on auto mode, the room temperature actually dropped from 21°C (when we entered) to 20.5°C. It didn’t warm up as expected, and there was no clear option to switch it to heating manually. The auto function didn’t seem to work at all.
