Our stay was great for what we needed, it was very cheap and it was clean and a good location. Car parking on site is very secure however tight in a large vehicle. The room did not have a window you could see out as there were privacy shutters so we kept the blinds shut, okay for one night but maybe not any longer. Staff were great. It is a solid 3 star hotel in my opinion and a good budget option.

Quest is very convenient to family we are visiting. Our room was small compared to other rooms we've stayed in at the Quest. We had no surfaces to lay our things out on and no drawers so that meant we could not empty our suitcase. That lay on the one chair available. Rooms are always clean and we will use the Quest next trip to Auckland. Hopefully, we will get a better room

We have stayed in this unit twice before. This time we notice the drawer handle on the cutlery drawer kept falling off the drawer, the filter on the front of the dryer fell off when we used the dryer, and the door between the bedroom and the bathroom was completely jammed shut and would not open. Everything else was excellent, bed was VERY comfortable, washer dryer combo good (except for fault noted above). Kitchen well stocked. We will stay here again, and probably ask for the same unit next time.
