Close to Wynyard station, and pretty central. It was a bit odd to check-in, I wasn’t sure where to go and had to wait a bit for the manager, but no issues with customer service. The facilities are decent and overall clean. The toilet and showers are separate. I would have preferred to have an internal lock in addition to the key lock, but that’s more a preference. I would stay again, definitely a good budget option.
