Check in was easy and staff were very friendly. We booked this property to do laundry before crossing over to the south island. Laundry machine was a 2in1 and small unit so we could only do a partial load and it had trouble drying so we ended up hanging and laying everything out overnight. Room was noisy and our window was broken which was letting more noise in. I believe there was a concert the night we stayed - luckily we were so tired that day that we were able to fall asleep despite the show. Bathroom was very small and there were stains on the carpet probably from previous guests cooking as there was a bit of a cooking smell coming from the hall. Had to park on the street but it was free for the time we were there so we just made sure to bring everything in with us for security. Overall it was fine for a quick stop.

this property is more like a college dorm/apartment than a hotel and i have rated it accordingly. to be a standard hotel the carpet and furnishings need a substancial upgrade. that being said the location is great. less than 5 mins walk to the harbour, and right in the middle of restaurants and shopping. even with the worn appearance it was clean and the staff was friendly. recommend it as a reasonable option if you are ok with the modest vibe.

Enjoyed our overnight stay. Very central and close to public transport, as well as a short walk to the harbour, cafes, and museums.
