This accommodation is operated as a hotel rather than the typical AirBnB setup. As such, it is necessary to pay a security bond at check-in. The accommodation is well-located on Queen Street, uphill from Aotea Square and near the Real Groovy record store. In the evening there is a bit of 'colourful' activity occurring in the public realm, in Scotia Lane adjacent to the front entrance to the accommodation. Staff at the accommodation are pleasant.
