central stay

ideal locationconvenient carpark
The location was ideal near the waterfront. a short walk took me to dining spots, and the te papa museum was also close. It only took fifteen minutes. i found the nearby carpark very convenient. I did not need my car during my four-night stay.

the room included a washing machine, a definite plus. the location was convenient for access to state highway 1. i found the staff friendly and always ready to help with questions (mia was especially helpful at check-in).
the route from reception to the quay involved navigating a car park, which i found a little confusing.

The room had a washing machine dryer and kitchen facilities. That was acceptable.
the room was too hot. there was no ceiling fan or air conditioning to cool the room. the open window was too small, and trucks made noise early in the mornings.

great location with useful amenities

great locationeasy accessclean roomclear signage
the location is great, just above lambton quay. i found everything i needed, supplied in the room. it was good i could come and go as i please. the room was very clean and i appreciated having a washing machine.
access from reception to lambton quay via the carpark felt tricky. the route through the james cook arcade was confusing at night. clearer signage in the carpark would help guests find the way more easily.
