We have stayed in Auckland a few times and love this building. Albert park across the street is amazing. Ten minute walk to waterfront. Two small grocery stores close, larger one 20 minute walk. Lots of choice in restaurants, just beside the building and easy walk around CBD (favorite Melba on Vulcan lane).
The pictures are accurate, gorgeous view of the water. Very comfortable, everything you need. The indoor pool/hot tub great bonus at the end of the day.
