Very good

Bathroom floor was not safe, panel's and tiles in shower coming off
Back deck was rotten and not safe outdoor furniture was rusty
Wasnt told we had upstairs init so hard to get upstairs due to my mobility
Clean and tidy and bright. The only thing that might need looking at was the single bed in 23 had springs in the mattress that was very uncomfortable. A new mattress would be much more comfortable

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Clean and presentable. Good air con and TV. Comfortable bed.
2nd time I’ve stayed here and definitely catered to our needs . Great for a family of 3 or 4 . I booked it for a me , my partner and 2 mates . 3 beds and a full kitchen and great bathroom .
This is our 2nd stay and we were going to a concert at Spark arena which is only a 15 min drive away. Conveniently located for Takapuna and Auckland city centre.
We liked that we were close to services we needed during our stay.
I would have liked a bigger shower area, I bent down to get shampoo and whacked my head on shower handle. Or maybe im too big??? Hehe.
Only thing I could say - was the pillows were a bit hard - that’s all only because I have trouble with my neck
Other then that everything else was good thank u 🙏
