We drove to New Plymouth, on checking in we were told parking onsite would be an additional $20 per day. Last time we stayed there parking was free!!!! Secure parking onsite is part of staying in the hotel we thought. We got back late, no one answered the night bell to let us in and the swipe card to enter didn’t work. Had to phone them to let me in

Great place, room was sized perfect. I used the gym, a little small but had sufficient equipment. The hotel is at a higher rate so i was surprised that they charged a separate fee for covered parking. The outside free parks were taken by staff or you could park down the road on the street away from the hotel, a little inconvenient.

Pretty nice place. Clean and comfortable. Very easy to go to the city center by walking. Parking is not free, $20 a day. But can park on the street or a few free parking in the hotel yard. Some tenants in the hall were quite noisy. But luckily they didn't keep loud after midnight.
