Always a great sleep
Pros:

The most comfortable bed. I’ve stayed a few places and this was tops!

Cons:

The bit of Federal Street where it’s located is average but it’s central so no major.

Excellent and would not hesitate staying here again.
Pros:

The hotel is situated in a great position, just near the Sky Tower in Auckland. Not far to be able to walk to most things that you would be wanting to do. Room was a good size with views from it. Buffet breakfast daily was really good with very friendly staff throughout the hotel.

Cons:

Wasn't really anything not to like. If I were to park a car here I'd probably just do it at the parking space right next door as it is half the price. Nothing else comes to mind.
