Is hotel with very nice… We stayed in a nest room which we loved. Plenty of space, a full kitchenette, and a nice mix of old and new with an original brick wall. The hotel is centrally located and close to everything. There is very limited parking on site but you can park at the train station which is one block away for 8NZD per day.

Well appointed apartment with tall ceilings so felt spacious. Clean. Central city. No specified parking when you arrive so could be a frustration. We paid for the parking option but could have used public parking for free after 5. Contactless arrival so make sure to read the emails. Would stay again.

Property in a very good location and fairly easy on street parking (at a cost). The room in the attic was nicely finished but (as we were warned) had no windows and just a skylight which did feel a little claustrophobic. It also had the smallest fridge I have ever seen - could have done with something larger (there was the room for one)

The room was clean, nice and comfortable. Easy check-in and check-out process. However, it would be good if they inform us earlier with regard to the parking reservation. I have to park along the street instead.

This is a self check in property, there are no staff to assist with access or questions normally addressed to a reception desk. The hotel was difficult to find and enter as there is a small sign and entrance which is accessible from a lock box.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
It was very modern inside & very minimalistic. However not a lot of shelf space to put belongings on. Bathroom skirting & corners of mirror very dusty as was the bedroom. Found it difficult to find hotel & carpark, which is seperate to hotel & not very wide entrance as well as steep - wouldn’t say secure, as anyone could walk in to carpark.
