getting to the hyatt from akl...is airbus still a good idea?

i'll be doing a mileage run to new zealand next week and had originally planned to take the airbus from akl to the hyatt for my one night's stay. thanks to Kiwi Flyer, i know the route has changed and the bus has fewer stops...is it still a good way to get to the hyatt or is a cab a better alternative? clearly i won't be renting a car for my 18 hours in town...and i'm trying to keep costs down, but i don't want a long walk in an unfamiliar city in uncertain weather.

if i do take the bus, how far will i be from the hyatt when they let me off? i have a notoriously bad sense of direction, and if i can't see the hotel from the stop, i'm likely to be wandering around auckland in a jet-lagged haze with my rollaboard. (on the upside, unlike when this happens in china, i can actually ask people for directions and understand the answer! )

suggestions?

You will have a short walk. You will not see the hotel from the stop. Hyatt is on Princess Street. Click thru to map after selecting Hyatt. Airbus route here. You will need to get off & on at stop 3 or 5. Note the 2 maps are 90° to each other (not pointing tha same way)
