Darra Holidays from NZ$927

Walking distance to shops, coles, restaurants, cafes and Uber wasn't expensive unlike other ares that have tolls.

Beautiful apartments, great balconies, stayed in a level 9, 3 bed and each room had a balcony plus big living room had big balcony. 2 bedroom on level 7 was amazing for bbq and drinks on balcony if you had friends staying oj the trip or as a family or couple. group of friends as it had an enormous balcony across front and wrapping around side with decent city and river views, second one on level 3 had pretty big balcony and again had private Nice open plan designs, and building is quiet. Close to museum, library, science cenre, cultural centre, major bus line stop and train station less than five min walk away. Do not like the area late night, threatening begging, homeless people often sit along front enfrance on footpath, carpark is difficult in bigher cars/utes, Dont like how much staff harrass you at check out after calling reception. Don't like that their sister company morgan suites have a lunatic manager who got me banned from both while kicking us out 20 min post check in because our service dog barked to alert us to my daughters medical needs, and due to that they owe me over $500 but refused because our service dog was accredited while unknowingly to us- was pregnant so we had pups with us (cant leave service dog behind, but cant leave pups off mum). Whats worse is fleet lane cancelled a booking on midnight because of this experience and caused me to be almost without accommodation. Thankfully a much better hotel brand could accomodate me, but i paid max rate

Great location, only 5 minutes walk from cafes and the Expedition Centre. The kitchen was large and well-stocked. On the downside, the wifi was extremely slow, too slow to use it for work or meetings. Also, the apartment didn't have heat and could have benefited from maintenance. For example, the TV remote didn't work and the toilet paper holder was broken.

Easy check in and pleasant staff. Room was spacious with views of the river. However, there was thick dust on the surfaces, especially the bedside tables, dirty glasses with lipstick and finger marks, rips in the sheets and a strange strong smell.

Great location, clean tidy room
