Convenient for railway station

Parnell Pines is in a lovely part of town close to the railway station. The reception person went out of her way to help me, as my phone wasn’t working, to order me a taxi and rang me at 6.30am to tell me the taxi was outside!! So kind. There is a small restaurant next door selling Indian Street food snacks which is worth a visit but if that doesn’t appeal there are many bars and restaurants along the street. Very convenient hotel for the railway - would recommend.

The cafe out the front is closed down now and there is no proper reception area but the place was nice and clean, surprisingly quiet, beds were comfortable etc. Overall very happy with our stay. They offered car parks but it was incredibly cramped, some of the car parks available would require about a 15-point turn to manoeuvre in or out of. Seemed like a lot more effort than it would be worth, but there is plenty of street and nearby parking.

The lack of parking on the premises was an issue. Had to park 2ks away due to no parks available on the road.

The most disgusting place we have ever stayed. So filthy, the whole place stunk. The room was so small you could barely move. Had to ask for cups cloths pillows teaspoon etc as only one of everything. This is more of a backpackers accommodation . Walls are like paper. Bed was so hard we might of well slept on the floor. Really wish we had asked to view the room before we paid as first appearances said it all. Nothing like the photos at all !!!!

Disliked: Cleanliness
The rear door was open at all times which was convenient to access our car but the manager's apartment is right beside it so still felt safe. Staff were friendly and helpful, at the restaurant too was a lovely staff member but the food could have been a little more exciting. Bedroom was very hot as we were north facing with no air conditioning but still slept well that night. The bathroom was really dirty though, again everything was so bright with the sun beaming in and no way to block it out. There is another floor of rooms below the main floor that I suspect are tenanted by long-stayers, the smell of cannabis wafted through the stairwell anytime you walked past. In the carpark there was dried toilet tissue and fecal matter that hadn't been properly washed away, it all clearly came from a flooded sewerage overflow which was a bit gross but I imagine this happens any time it rains heavily due to where the carpark is situated down a steep driveway at the back of the property. You get what you pay for, Parnell is a lovely part of Auckland and you are situated right in the heart of it.

The check in process was strange. No one mans the desk you need to ring a number. The room was small and hot, it smelt strongly of perfume. The bed was very uncomfortable and had a spring digging into me all night. Cleaning of the outside was occurring during the day with a blowing machine which made it very noisy.

The property was not well maintained, no staff presence at reception. The smoke alarm had been disarmed and put in the wardrobe. The TV did not work. There was no cutlery to stir your cup of tea/coffee or a place. All in all very very disappointing and definitely unsafe.
