Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Good choice to save some money but still be within reach of everything in Wellington CBD. Plenty of parking. Friendly staff. Laundry facilities on site were great. Balcony views over the water were lovely but the road is very busy and noisy (noise did not travel inside with the doors closed). Room was large with good facilities. Bathroom floors were quite slippery when wet. No lift and it can be a long walk if you are at the end of the hall so keep in mind if you have heavy bags or mobility issues.
