Very good

The Bond Refund on Arrival $140.00 and Parking $25.00 per night should have been clear on the website and not sent after booking was made! Photo identification on Arrival should also have been clear and not suddenly requesting it upon arrival! The photo of the Fitness Facilities is misleading because its is not the property’s fitness facility but a gym down the road from the accommodation! Customer Service is not helpful. We will not be booking accommodation with City Lodge Accommodation again or recommend it to anyone which is disappointing!
Overall great for the price, walls are very thin but I'm not a light sleeper so this didn't bother me much. Truely a backpacker's scene

The soundproofing was definitely an issue, I could easily hear people in the hallways, noise in neighbouring rooms and various sorts of noise outside. No alcohol allowed in the room was a bit much, I'm not a 16 year-old trying to hide a 6-pack I bought with a fake ID from Mum and Dad. At the very least, it's affordable, but you're getting what you pay for.
The room was warm and quiet, and the location is handy to the Aotea Centre. For snacks etc there's a minimart just across the road. If you want to cook there's a kitchen downstairs. I didn't realise it was a backpackers but wasn't a oroblem.Good value for money

Clean and well priced for a single night stay. Very noisy - both the building itself and the street below.

Amazing self serve kitchen options, nice staff, laundry facilities available ke at $4 nzd per wash and per dry. Property needs to be updated - I had to sleep with an eye mask on bc too much light and the mattress needed to be changed out. Overall 8 of 10 bc of mattress and too much light.
I would never book here again. The rooms are small and smell musty. No Air Con in the rooms and they’re outdated and not very clean. We checked in and literally only stayed for 1 hour before deciding to check out and book elsewhere much nicer! You’re not allowed alcohol in your room, which is ridiculous or visitors either. The staff weren’t very friendly and the surrounding area wasn’t the nicest! I don’t recommend!
Out of hundreds of places, this is probably the worst place I’ve stayed in years. The worst part is it doesn’t have AC which is crazy for a subtropical first world city like Auckland. Was very uncomfortable. They treat you like a criminal, need a passport to check-in, license no good. They make you wait and check your room before you leave. It’s cheaper than most options, but you get what you pay for.
