Perfect amenities with a washing machine, dryer and dish washer. Super clean!

Staff were super friendly and offered me a lot of help, laundry was the cheapest so far I’ve done in New Zealand. The beds, bathroom, kitchen are very clean. Location is good, was in a quiet neighborhood and still close to the city center.
