Breakfast was the same every morning x5. Fruit varied but heated food always baked beans, yuk, scrambled eggs, hash browns and bacon/sausages. No ability to put together maybe an egg benny meal, or maybe salmon for a bagel meal.

Friendly staff. Comfortable beds and a warn, clean room. Breakfast was included and it had excellent options, including a separate toaster for gluten-free needs. Thr hotel is close to the centre and was in a quiet area. The building is quite tired as a lot of nz hotels seem to be.

We didnt like the very tight car parking. And the slippery slope drive way going down to the city. Theres water running down it. And its constantly wet. Very dangerous when frosty. But loved the stay in the complex. And will come back.

Very noisy, with people able to walk through the carparks, yelling, screaming,swearing late at night early morning, very close to Ambulance service with sirens.Would definitely look for somewhere more peaceful. No restaurant onsite for evening dining, there is a very limited in house menu with very few choices.
