This hotel is very conveniently located for events at Spark Arena, about a 3min walk, if that. Also less than 10min to bottom of Queen Street and Britomart / Commercial Bay shopping. Lots of cafes and restaurants nearby. The only negative was the inconsistency of timing for room service, every day we ended up being in the room when they came to change the towels, etc. But the staff were all extremely nice when we interacted with them. Room size was very good, even for just a studio. Highly recommend.

Great location

It is a nice, clean hotel. Getting there via the public transit is easy as it is close to the Britomart station. It's close to the city center. There is a lot of restaurants around the hotel. Also, you can find a laundromat a few steps away. The staff was friendly.
