Room is fine and all good for price. No aircon and a bit dated but location is perfect for a gig at the domain. No issues. Just basic. What you would expect for price you pay.

Parnell Pines isn't the Ritz but it's really great. It's right in the middle of Parnell, on the inner city bus route, and the room was clean and just fine. But the best thing is the rooms are extremely good value. Highly recommended.

The room was clean, bed comfortable and linen and towels changed regularly. Property Manager was pleasant and helpful. The room and facilities are run down and shabby and in need of a complete upgrade. Parking is down a steep driveway, and it is extremely difficult to navigate even with a medium size vehicle particularly is there are other large vehicles already there. There is a down-market bar in the front of the building which appears to be totally out of character with the Parnell area.

While the Parnell area is lovely with plenty of shopping, restaurants, and close to central city, this is basically a one star property. However the staff were very good! We arrived to find reception unmanned and had to ring a cell phone - problem 1 - I didn't have a phone! We were asked to pay upfront by card - problem 2 - I was overcharged by $103 and didn't notice until I got to our room. Problem 3 - the owner resides (?) overseas and receptionist did not have authority to make a refund - it took contact with Expedia to sort out and I got refunded the day before we checked out. The photos on Expedia are clearly old - there is a noisy bar attached to the front of the property - not a Gelato shop, not Lala Coffee Shop. The bar sells a smoking product via a hookah and has direct access to the toilets which are in the reception area - this is a security risk and it is not the only one - the lower floor side door is never closed - even when it is raining! The stairwell has direct access to the hallways on which the rooms are based. I recommend anyone staying here uses the room door security chain. The wifi is poor and the TV services stutter as the TV only runs on wifi streaming - no aerial. The condition of the room is "run down" with marked paint work on the walls.The bathroom is also run down - the lino had not been laid properly and looked to have been done by an amateur. The sink was cracked and the large mirror was badly marked with water damage (to the rear).

Staff assistance was excellent. Tiny window No AC though there was a fan. Couldnt get tv chanels. One pillow was old and extremely discoloured. Walls and decor were tired, marked and overall in need of refurbishment. Shower was cleanish although wall shelf was broken and cracked and the pressure non existant. If you needed a place to crash and didnt mind the hostel/student accomodation like environment then it would be sufficient.

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.
