This motel has everything! The best view, the best location, the best amenities. This motel felt like a hotel! I’ve been flying over to wellington many times this year, and have been booking different motels and this is the best one by far! I love that it smells so good, I love how wide the parking space is. It’s near the main road but you the room is soundproof so you can’t hear any noises! If I were to fault it, it’s that it doesn’t have an elevator so you have to take the stairs - but it’s only 1 level up. There’s also no hairdryer and no milk! Other than that it had everything else! Heatpump/AC. Shampoo, Conditioner, Soap, Lotion. Coffee, tea, biscuits. And they refill them every morning when they clean the rooms! Most importantly the wifi is great! My favourite thing about it is it feels like home! Will definitely be back to stay at this place! Im so happy I found this place!
