Not enough parking
Our room was adequate. It was not clear that self parking at the hotel needed to be reserved in advance. We were directed to a parking garage on the next street which was all full! Street parking was limited to 1 hour durig he day. Quite frustrating! We were able to park on the street overnight 2 blocks away near our daughter's apartment. Since parking was very limited during the day, it was best to leave the city and return after 6pm when parking is free. Next time we won't stay in Central Dunedin.
