Comfortable repeat stay.

Friendly, helpful staff. Close to shops, restaurants, and short (3 minute) walk to the waterfront and sculptures, and Pukekura Park (20 minute walk). Spacious studio with excellent king-sized bed, spacious shower room, adequate kitchen with a full-sized fridge and pod coffee machine. :) Friendly staff, and we felt warm and comfortable throughout our stay.
