The hotel is centrally located in Auckland, making it convenient to explore the city on foot. However, the confusion over room types and the noise from the surroundings could affect the overall experience. The friendliness of the staff stands out, but some amenities like Sky TV were missed, and the cleanliness of the area was a bit of a letdown.

The hotel room was suitable for a one night visit but fell short on comfort and amenities for the price paid. The service was efficient and friendly overall, but lacking in detailed explanations. The location was great with convenient stores nearby, yet a bit difficult to navigate. The dining experience was pleasant but could get monotonous for longer stays. Overall, a decent choice but with room for improvement.

The hotel had a convenient location in the city center near key bus stops and shops, with easy access to popular food truck spots and a supermarket. The rooms were basic but clean. Service was efficient and accommodating, though the food was not up to standard. The dining options were limited, but the artisan bread was delicious and worth trying. Overall, a central location with some room for improvement in dining.

My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. The location was incredibly convenient, being close to everything, but the room was noisy due to lack of soundproofing.

I had a great stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean and spacious, the breakfast was wonderful, and the bed was super comfortable. However, it could get a bit noisy from the street during the late evening and early morning. The service was amazing, with nothing being a problem, and the staff were very attentive. The location was fantastic, right in the center of food places and close to a supermarket. The dining was decent, but the portions were small. Overall, a good value for money.

The hotel is a good choice for anyone visiting Auckland as a start to a holiday in New Zealand. The rooms have all you could ask for, making you feel welcome. However, there was a slight smoky smell from a previous guest, and the noise from the busy elevator could be bothersome. The room servicing schedule and limited amenities like toiletries and milk pots were minor inconveniences.

The hotel's location is amazing, being in the middle of Auckland CBD and close to key places like The Civic and Aotea Square.

The hotel is centrally located in Auckland CBD, offering easy access to city amenities. The rooms are quiet and soundproofed with a nice view of the city, but there were some issues with cleanliness and previous smoking odors. The service was mixed, with some staff going out of their way to assist while others were less helpful. The location is convenient for exploring the city but may have noise disturbances from nearby vents. The dining had a good spread, but limited options and pricing concerns.
