    tired hotel

    Definitely not what I expected, the room was advertised as a sea view, yet I could only see a shipping container. The hotel had a tired look, my bathroom was in dire need of a refresh, and you'd think as a valued guest, I'd receive a room upgrade for my troubles. I just couldn't give a good review after that.

    scenic harbor
    large kitchen

    great view but some minor issues

    The room was spacious with a lovely side balcony overlooking the scenic harbor. I appreciated the well-equipped kitchen, perfect for preparing meals, and the large TV was a nice touch for unwinding. The reception staff were really good, assisting me with laundry after my three-week trip across New Zealand. The sea view from the balcony was a highlight.

    very nice views
    helpful staff
    well-equipped kitchen
    aging air conditioner

    Very nice views from the room! The super nice team and the kitchen was well-equipped for simple meals. Loved how close it was to all the main attractions, everything's within walking distance.

    Some aspects showed signs of age, like the air conditioner needing an upgrade.
