    The "bar" was not really a bar. There were 2 lovely ladies working there, who didn't really seem to know what they were doing, but were super nice.

    Cute hotel, especially for the price. So close to everything we wanted to see in Auckland.

    The gym was a make shift one in the basement.

    Staff were very helpful and accommodating. They were helpful when one of the guests arrived earlier than the check in time. Having parking on site was also very good.

    After a day of travel we chose to stay and eat in the restaurant. My chicken and salad was served to me in a plastic take away dish on a plate?? Not a good start. Not much of a de8nks selection. Waitress service was average.

    A fabulous location for our stay which included a concert at the Civic Theatre. Lots of good eating places nearby and excellently situated to catch the Ritchies Express Bus (stop is at the Sky Tower) to and from the airport. Clean, comfortable and convenient. Would stay here again.

    I had $50.00 deducted when i arrived and checked in and i was really unsure why as the communication was not great due to language (English not fist language albeit very friendly). I think for a bond? They advised it would be refunded the next day when i checked out but this is 4 days later and it is still not in my visa account.

    Staff very friendly Central location

    There was not quite enough room for our things. There was not room on the one bathroom rack to hang two towels and a hand towel, and there were no hooks anywhere to hang anything on. There was only one suitcase rack so we had to put our other suitcase on the floor, they were not quite enough in the closet. it was not quite set up to bring dinner into our room Even though room service was offered.

    We loved the vibe of the hotel and how helpful the staff was for us. We really liked that. There was a restaurant downstairs where we could take a vantage of the breakfast buffet or slip in for a meal. Anytime of the day our room was super clean and comfortable.

    Not something that the hotel could change, but as a warning to other guests: the streets around the hotel are all being dug up for road works. It is a bit of a mess and it makes it quite difficult getting to and from the hotel on foot.

    The room was comfortable and clean. Breakfasts are excellent.
