Value for money, particularly for an overnight stay. - Clean & tidy room, very comfortable bed, good location in town, good sized fridge with proper small freezer (not a small bar fridge with an ice box), friendly staff, had free view tv which was good - alot of places these days don't have this basic provision. No coffee mugs, only smaller tea cups were provided. No WiFi included, have to pay for this separately. No onsite or near parking.

• Samantha (9/5): - Very spacious, clean, great view. Wifi wasn't great. It kept disconnecting.
• Rawlinson (7/5): -
• Emi (7/5): 起伏の激しいオークランドの街を歩いて楽しむ - 部屋が広かった。 オークランドの街を認識できたら、ロケーションも許容できると思った。 近くにコンビニがあって、使いやすく、調理可能な部屋でよかった。 部屋はカードキーで入室するが、内鍵が壊れていたため、安全面で不安があった。 せっかく三方向の窓があったが、すべて窓の向こうに別の建物の窓があり、カーテンを開けることはできなかった。
• GIULIO (10/5): -
• Shein (8/5): In general, the apartment is good with easily accessible location. - The reception staff are friendly and supportive. The room was clean and comfortable to stay in and with good facilities. Wifi is not inclued in the room fee, and so we have to buy the internet plan even though it is not expensive.

• Nurazilan (9/5): - Everything!

• Jalin (7/5): -
• Tash (1/5): Disappointing - Not a lot. Bed was uncomfortable, can hear others talk from the corridor, the door to rooms dont shut quietly they slam. Too much noise. Unpleasant smell in reception area. I left a day early due to this.

• Amy (8/5): Location was perfect for us and it was great to have the whole apartment - Location and size of apartment
• Neelofar (8/5): It was good - Location is perfect. Its centrally located close to University of Auckland and Whitecliffe College. There were 2 washrooms within a 6 bed apartment. Cleanliness was good. Hot water was not an issue I was not aware that they take security deposit of 100$ and they say they return within 3-4 business days after check out. That was a surprise. Wifi speed is good but its paid. 10 bucks for 3 devices for a week. Parking not available
• Maria Helena 1982 (8/5): Good value accommodation for family. - Good location. Bathrooms were tidy and beds comfy. Served our needs well. Would stay here again. No parking, so be prepared to park in carpark and walk. Room had a lot of noise from wind, but you can't control nature! Need to pay for wifi.

• Rangi-Rose (3/5): I would NOT recommend this place - Wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone The mattresses are so hard, not very comfortable beds The pillows are pathetic No couch to sit on in the 3 bedroom apartment No aircon or air flow on the 19th floor. The windows barely open Stayed 4 nights, 5 days and the rooms were not serviced at all during our stay Free parking is only available 6pm to 8am but only about 20 spaces for the whole street. It’s pure luck to get a park

• Lorenza (5/5): - Facile à trouver Très simple Pas de parking Le fait de nous avoir débité une caution et nous la rembourser après a aucun moment ce n’était précisé
• Carolina (8/5): -
• Préma (6/5): Expérience Empire - L'accessibilité, l'ouverture de la réception jusqu' à 22pm La gentillesse du personnel de nettoyage et leur travail de nettoyage et d'entretien de l'appartement. Les chambres pas forcément terminées ( peintures, lino), un salon avec deux fauteuils alors que nous étions 3, une télé qui ne fonctionnait pas. L'espace commun n'était pas forcément des plus agréables. Nous ne savions pas forcément à quel moment le service de nettoyage passait ni quel jour.
• Daniele (10/5): we love it. And with a buger plase/malesyan restaurant next by - is a beutifull place, very big room, we stayed twice and both times they upgraded our room for free (I know we were lucky but still). Room are big, clean, confortable big beds. close to bus stop (10 min) nothing. 10 min and you are on the streets with a lot of bar/restaurant.
• Janice (5/5): - Friendly staff. Nice on site Malaysian restaurant Bed was extremely hard. No comfy chairs to use to watch telly
• Sheryl (5/5): - The area The room was not clean. The toilet did not flush very well. Kitchen was not well set up. Not suitable for family's
• James (8/5): Only gripe I had was the very close proximity of the neighboring buildings. - I never had any breakfast and at first was not impressed with the area. All things considered nothing serious. The staff were polite and very helpful. The flat was very clean and tidy with ample amount of cooking facilities. The bus service was convenient and close by.
• Svenja (9/5): -
• Nurliyana (8/5): It was enjoyable stay and near to CBD. Easy to go anywhere. - The space is good and can fit up to 6 adults. Very cosy. The toilet and shower room is quite small.
• Alana (10/5): - The view the people the room the space the facilities amazing the bond 😁 No pool
• Unidad (8/5): -
• sonia (8/5): Suit my whanau for cheap stop over , will use again I could see parking could be a problem - Close to city and three rooms worked well for the kids No air con
