Overnight stay
Room was mostly clean. Bed was extremely uncomfortable, mattress sagging into the middle, pillows way too high & had to use cushions off couch instead. Towel rack in shower coning off the wall, tiles in shower dirty. Otherwise comfortable for 1 night stay.

Solid choice, some finer details to improve on
Great location. Nice facilities. However, the $40 per day parking fee was a bit much. Also, the need to get staff to open up the door to the gym/pool and give you access to the parking in the basement is an inconvenience. Especially when you have to leave for the airport and the staff have put up a 'back in 10 minutes' sign.

8/10 Very good

The staff are as always brilliant to deal with, we are regulars you see so already know them by name too. The room we stayed in 205 is in need of refurbishing. The walls are getting grubby, the carpet is very frayed at the edges especially by the kitchen. The touch lamp on the rhs of the bed does not work properly. I like that there are handrails by the bath. Also, the pool,spa and sauna is always a big plus for us. Cheers Marge and Sid

The hotel was in easy walking distance to the Viaduct and the Britomart area, so handy to shops and the business district. The room was of a good size, the bed was comfortable and the shower had excellent pressure. Room rate was competitive. Would stay again.

Fridge wasn't turned on and took a while to chill. Bathroom door handle was loose. Hotel was convenient to downtown and walking distance so no need to use car once it was parked.

Everything was good except the bathroom was not a good standard. On checkout I advised the receptionist that that bath had several chips in the bottom and also outside the bath the skirting board looked mouldy. Also the floor looked like it had water damage. The receptionist noted my concern so I hope the necessary action to tidy it up has been taken/

Helpful staff
Staff were really helpful, the heating stopped working in my room and I had 2 people come to look at it and eventually got it fixed, they also brought me a portable heater! the tv remote wasn’t working great after they gave me new batteries which didn’t make a difference so they gave me a new remote! House keeping were great asked me everyday if I needed my room making up or if I needed anything topped up, fresh towels daily, more than accommodating! Highly recommend amazing location and great price!

I liked the location and walkable distance from downtown Akld and my work location . Staff were super helpful, and friendly on arrival. I did wake to some noise at night and I would have liked access to a full length mirror. Shower curtain also a little tired.

6/10 Good

Great location for viaduct and cad eateries - all walking distance. But being cbd was a bit noisy with road traffic noise. They heating was a little suspect and noisy - had to turn off to sleep. Staff took a long time - over 10 minutes - to check me in, saying they had a new computer system that it seemed they had little training on and had difficulties. Parking was available although expensive, and access via the lifts had to be approved by the reception each time -why not use the pass cards for the rooms to do this??? Overall the stay was satisfactory only, and yes for the price I would stay again but do some research for cheaper parking next time I have business in Auckland CBD.
