Beware.
Pros:

Close to restaurants and walking distance to attractions around town including Te Papa. The front desk is not manned all the time

Cons:

There was no daily room service, so no clean towels etc so you are on your own. It is not a Hotel. No movies or TV programmes unless you have your own logins for streaming apps. None of this is obvious when reading what is offered in the price of a room.
