Very good

Mattress on the bed had a hump in the middle, making it difficult to stay in bed.
Room was VERY small. Did not look like the photo at all.
Hotel has air conditioning on the website, but do not have it available. Would not have stayed their had we known that as room size made it quite stuffy. A cheap pedestal fan was provided but only circulated warm air.
Room without real dayligjt, longer stay causes depression, houskeeping at five pm on Sunday! The old part of the hotel lacks quality for 200 $NZ per night
Being shoulder season This topend hotel was same cost as mid range hotels
The gym was perfect for serious weightlifters with 50 kg dumbells and Olmpic bar
Also has 2 kg dumbells for beginners
