Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
There is no way this hotel is a five star. The rooms were tiny. Only 17m2 was claustrophobic. The aircon filters were completely blocked. The floors creaked. The access to the room was like a maze. No elevator to our floor. The exterior noise from the HVAC systems was loud and continuous. Had to shift first room due to kitchen extraction outside our room plus could see outside our room, no clear windows, obviously to hide the kitchen extraction. Very dark and morbid.

Liked: Cleanliness
Property seems nice in terms of finishes but trying to be a 5 star with 3 facilities and staff. Nice enough but missed all the small details from linen/towels that feels as rough as sandpaper to staff slouching on phones and minimal eye contact. The hotel is a short walk to centre of Dunedin. Food at the hotel is very average and well overpriced for what it is. If they concentrated on the small details it’ll be value for money but reality is it’s a 3 star and not a patch on other fables around NZ/AU
