Arun’s place is very clean and very basic. Nothing fancy or lavish but you shouldn’t expect that given the reasonable rates. The rooms can get hot in the summer but there was a fan in my room which helped. The internet was a bit in and out at times. There is a free community pool which is very nice in the Town Centre about 15 minutes away as well as a grocery and various fast food if that is your preferred style of eating. If you want to experience Auckland this may be farther afield than will easily allow. But you cannot beat the very reasonable price.
