Clean well equipped comfortable room and en-suite very quiet
Appreciated help from the staff member in reception to carry our bags up the outside stairs to our unit.
The room was very clean and comfortable. It had everything you could possibly need and was easily walkable to restaurants and activities. Definitely on our list to stay the next time we’re in the area!
Remodelled rooms, spacious, well thought out. Beds comfy, close to everything needed for a short stay in Takapuna.
Kitchenette with toaster, kettle, fridge.
Will stay again on my next trip. Don’t be fooled by the exterior.
This property had been renovated to a high standard 2 years ago very roomy the bathroom was fully tiled and all the furniture was nice the bed was top quality and comes with a kitchenette. Also very handy location in Takapuna. Looking forward to our next stay.
Very nice property and room was well furnished and nice to stay in.
The service from reception was good.
The only negative was that the beds were very firm and on wheels.
Good value for money property with good parking. Handy to supermarket.

Check in was fast & the receptionist was friendly.
The shower pressure was awesome, just be careful of the hot water heat.
The room was clean & tidy & I didn't hear any noise from other guests (although I think there was only 1 other staying at the time).
Convenient location.
The bed was too hard.

The facility is undergoing major works (two storey addition, with scaffolding). My room (ground floor) was nicely renovated, the kitchette was odd - cups and plates at floor level on shelf (I literally resorted to a bowl for my Uber eats as I could not get to the undelying plates), and little bench space. Had to rinse my dishes in the bathroom basin. Wifi was very poor strenght.
On arriving at the hotel, it looked run down and significantly uninviting. The reception was unattended and after waiting for a few minutes I knocked loudly and then called out loudly. Still no-one. I was walking away from Reception when somebody appeared saying they were doing the laundry and hadnt heard me. HOWEVER. The room was fantastic, comfortable and clean and a really great experience.
