This is a great starting or ending point for your NZ trip. The commute to/from the airport is ideal (NZ$1.95) and you're near the train station straight to downtown. It's also a good starting point for seeing the surrounding areas. The neighborhood itself is predominately Indian, Chinese, and Fijian, and the restaurants reflect that. Lots of good cheap food.
The room itself is comfortable and the Nitin keeps the place immaculate. Full facilities offer a taste of home.
Nitin is a kind professional who works much of the day, but he takes the time to make sure you're comfortable.
Highly recommended!
