Quest Petone
Parking - The parking spots are tight but secure. Parking is $15 a day, but was worgh it in Petone. The room was somewhat dated. The kitchen was a very small kitchenette, but it had a full size refrigerator.

Didn't have breakfast, so no comment. The major restaurant was closed, but the Peltonen had a simple menu and their food was excellent. Well done to who ever is in charge of Food & Beverage there
