Excellent value for money.
Pros:

The staff provided exceptional customer service. The location is excellent, featuring modern facilities and convenient access to nearby diners.

Cons:

The unsealed entry door allowed light to penetrate beneath it and external noise to intrude, creating the impression that the door was ajar.

总体非常满意，完美开启了我们的新西兰之旅，是性价比很高的酒店
Pros:

位置很好，离机场比较近。
周边吃饭采购都很方便，咖啡厅也不错。
停好车非常方便。

Cons:

房间里的两个面对面的小沙发显得很拥挤，但是无伤大雅。
冰箱刚好放在床头边，晚上似乎有一点声音，但我不确定是不是冰箱的声音。
