Very spacious, modern, clean and quiet. Also beds were super comfortable (and both large, rather than the more typical 1 queen/1 twin). Also free parking! Only disadvantage was distance from CBD.
First time booking this place and I loved it! it had everything I needed. Room was cozy and comfy. Came with milk and tea which was lovely. Shower was amazing with great pressure. There was a perfect view of the sky tower so I was able to watch the fire works on NYE. Then Dinner at gladstone was another added bonus. The fact that you dont have to go round and round for parking is also another added bonus. Would totally stay here again! thank you so much -
Always love staying here - such lovely staff - easy open air parking and easy walk to Parnell shops and restaurants and easy for public transport.

We stayed in a two bedroom suite. It was ok, very tired in terms of comfort, the two arm chairs are very uncomfortable, the sofa ok.
The beds were comfortable though.
It had everything you could want but it was just old and v tired.
The air con would only turn on if you reset the master switch on it.
The area of Parnell is really lovely though.
Easy walk to bus stop and Parnell street of good cafes and restaurants.

Clean room with balkony overlooking downtown of Auckland
An older building but still kept clean and maintained. Situated in a quiet area close to the city. I enjoyed staying there and plan to stay there often.
