Grand Millennium Auckland
Really nice, big room. The only thing is there is a really big bathtub and a really small shower! Low water pressure in the shower but the toilet ran for like a minute and flushed crazy and splattered water everywhere! I reported it at checkout because surely there was something wrong with that ...
