No staff at reception , had to go to restaurant and request someone to come and book us in. No valet parking available recommended by staff to use parking building next door. Absolutely disgusting, elevator full of graffiti dirty and poorly lit, stairs smelt like a urinal. No room service or snacks in room. Disappointing stay definitely would not recommend.

You’re paying for the location

It was pretty good! The hotel itself is sort of average, but you’re paying the the location! It’s nice and close to nearly EVERYTHING you’d like to do in downtown Auckland. Also if you have a car the parking next door is relatively cheap per day, although it’s also a bit cramped feeling if you have a larger vehicle
