The Shakespeare Hotel

The location was ideal. Although we arrived out of hours the staff made a point of leaving a note for us and also gave clear instructions on how to access our room, without any problems, which was great.

The mattress was broken on one side and major building was happening throughout the night just outside our window making it very difficult to sleep.

The website said $265 but we were told to pay $289. The floor was not very clean. There was no soap holder in the bathroom. No vanity either. No dresser or low boy or bench to a it our stuff/clothes on Paid too much for this night in this condition as mentioned above

Centrally located.

No hot water. Tiny room and overall tired property. No climate control. Pests and vermin.

It’s central and has a bar downstairs.

First room was small but was prepared for that. Got on bed and mattress had collapsed on one side springs exposed on one side. Went and mentioned it, no other mattress available and told us hey were unaware. Offered another room. Even smaller on floor below so nearer very busy building site and roadworks but bed was usable. No tv, no lamp and just ceiling light n room. Heater on wall smashed in half. Got a note shoved under door... no hot water as boiler broken. This place is cheap, yes but come on. The building site is going to continue for some time and the rooms won’t improve. I was woken repeatedly by site noise and could wait to get out in morning... no shower as hot water not fixed. Say somewhere else if you can and save yourself the worry. Same room was on offer that day for 40nzd cheaper so we complained and they did reluctantly and begrudgingly give us 30nzd.

Good, Location, pub below, good food

Wasn’t worth the value, poor facilities and cleanliness
