The hotel was in an easy-to-find location and had very good transportation links. It was also very clean and everything was neatly arranged.
There is a restaurant next to the lobby with a nice atmosphere, and although we didn't use it, it didn't seem like we would have any trouble finding a meal.
The front desk staff also spoke to us in a friendly manner, and my elderly father (who speaks very little English) seemed to enjoy the conversation.
If I ever come to Auckland again, I will definitely choose this hotel again.
