Staff friendly and helpful. The breakfast even described as continental was poor and not with the $24 per person. The best part of the hotel was the bathrooms which have been revamped recently. Just need the rest of the hotel to catch up!

We loved the view from our balcony of the rose garden and park across the street. We arrived in New Zealand at 6:00 in the morning and arrived at the hotel at 8:00. The hotel had a nice waiting area for early guests with a washroom and a place to wash up and refresh after a long flight. We were then ready for a walk to the Auckland Museum. The included breakfast was very good with lots of choices.

The hotel was under construction and very noisy. We had to wait to check in because our room wasn't ready at 3pm. They said our room had been renovated, but it wasn't very modern. Pool was supposed to be back in service when we arrived, but wasn't open. Okay, but not great.

Generally ok. Stayed a couple of weeks ago and check-in was definitely better this time. Pool closed because they are renovating the building next to the pool. This was annoying as booked again specifically for the fact it had the pool. It will be out of commission for sometime apparently so wouldn't book if you want a pool

Realise the place is outdated and appreciate the fact it is now being renovated. We had a basic, budget room, and it certainly does need upgrading - however we booked and stayed due to the convenience, not due to us spending a lot of time in there. Was particularly annoyed that internet connection was still using outdated connections - and wasn't working for us. If I was on business this would have been more critical.

The check-in was initially a bit sloppy but improved when additional staff came on desk. The room was comfortable and actually quite nice. Bathroom was a bit outdated and the shower head very short. The water pressure great in shower bath not so good took ages to get any real water in there but to be fair they say on their description that they are currently upgradinging these. The exterior of the rooms was very dirty dark and blocked in. Had a ranch slider but could really use it as the area was blocked in with wooden slats and clearly not maintained. The restaurant was amazing. The staff were very attentive and they made my 3 year old feel great as well. He got his own menu and an activity pack. The food and service I couldn'tfault even with a wedding happening in an adjoining area. There are rose gardens across the street to walk around and the pool area at the complex was amacculate. There is onsite parking. All in all met my needs for a one night stay and would stay again
