This was our first stop in Auckland. We got upgraded to a studio room with the view of the Tower.. quite a treat! Queen's street is a short 15 mins walk away, and all the party places and resturants are right there. Clean room, though quite small, comfortable beds..

Although rather noisy (it was a warm night, and we kept the windows open, as there was NO ventilation otherwise), this hotel was clean and comfortable. Nothing special, but it did have coffee, tea and hot chocolate as well as a fridge in the room. Good location for walking around downtown, to the ferries, parks, etc.

Thanks Nancy for your feedback. We can provide portable fans for the rooms and suggest to people that they book on the south side being a cooler side in summer. We hope you enjoyed your holiday in NZ and thanks again for taking the time to post your feedback. Best regards Glenn More

Stayed here for almost 6 weeks when in NZ - absolutely excellent service, good value and convenient location (easy walk to central Auckland). Staff always incredibly helpful in advising about Auckland and allowed me to check out for a period to do some travelling. Would definitely stay there again.

What a great find in central Auckland. My sister and I stayed for three nights and we were very pleased with the accommodations. The rooms were clean and comfortable, it was a great location (we walked everywhere), the staff was friendly, and it was a very reasonable rate to boot. Only downside- no air conditioning, but the weather wasn't too... More

Staff were very helpful, even when checking in at 03:30 am. It's location is near bus stops and walking distance to the main CBD streets. Bit warm in the rooms, but reception did have fans for use on request. After reading the guest information in the room& the 2 pages on their contribution to the environment, this is perfectly understandable.... More

Please pass on my thanks to your daughter for selecting our great property. I am so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Backpacking can be so much fun so long as you have the finer things available such as a private bathroom and other goodies. We hope to see you again in the future, best regards Glenn Gairdner More

room was nice, clean, staff did daily refresh giving the stay more of a hotel feel rather than a 'budget' feel. the only issue was no air con so had to keep the window open resulting in street noise. Overall a great experience.
