Horrible, if you want to sleep, get another place.
Pros:

The bed was good.

Cons:

There was an air conditioning unit on top of my ceiling which belonged to another room as my wasn’t on, it shook the ceiling all night until 5:44, literally spent whole night awake.

Pleasant easy walk to cafes & restaurants and good large lounge/dining area in 2 bedroom unit
Pros:

Large room with great facilities in the centre of the city

Cons:

Access to reception from on street parking only. It would have been nice to know to leave our luggage in the car until we had access to our park under the hotel. Parking very tight

Great apartment in the heart of Whangarei.
Pros:

Location, large modern apartment, regularly cleaned, well equipped kitchen with a good size fridge, microwave, oven, washing machine and dryer, two TVs with free movies and air conditioned.

Ok. Good for farmers market. Heavy traffic just outside to front door.
Pros:

Clean. Centrally located but I’d book another place next time.

Cons:

Limited parking which needs to be precooked. Our bad but we didn’t realise that you had to book in advance. We had an unlocked trailer that we ended up taking to secure parking at the airport overnight for $15. We also arrived on a public holiday & there’s an unmanned reception. The instructions to get in weren’t brilliant.

good location, well overpriced
Pros:

Good location, staff very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Only one aircon in main room, had to have on high and leave doors open to get into the bedrooms.
One bedrrom as window outside, blind does not stop any lgiht getting in, so doent get dark till late and light early.
Main bedrrom has a window to the rest of apartment, with no blind, so if Tv on when going to bed then light comes thru and cannot be shut down.
Also no cleaning on Sunday, as np staff, but same price as rest of week, this day should be discounted.
Lift didn't work on last day and as no reception unless 2 to 5pm there is never anyone to ask problems during most hours.

Pros:

It was definitely a dated property but overall it was okay for what we needed. I felt it was a bit expensive given it was one night in a studio, but no complaints in terms of cleanliness or others. It had what we needed for the night and was located central to everything. Check out could’ve been explained better as there were no staff around when we left at 9am.
