Comfortable affordable stay - rooms were very basic and dated - mould on the exterior windows and the carpet down the hallways could definetely do with replacing it was a bit of a tripping hazard. However given what we paid to stay there, you get what to pay for and it was perfect for our needs which was a clean tidy room to spend a couple of nights. Close to city not a far walk at all so good location.

Last time i came here couple of years ago you had breakfast laid on,not this time obviously. Bit of a walk to Wellingtons cafes from here. There was no air con, my room 502 was pretty damn hot over the weekend. I noticed there was a sky remote also but no actual sky service installed so kind of pointless have these remotes in the room. As i see it the corridors and the rooms need a makeover,its all looking pretty tired.

The room was really dated, shower over the bath difficult to get in and out of. Pictures on website in no way resembled the room we had. One sash window that didn't stay open and a pedestal fan. Restaurant was closed and when I booked it said there was a restaurant available on site. I get that they may be upgrading rooms but they could indicate that so that you have advance warning.

Easy to assess. Quiet and clean. Didn’t spend so much time in the hotel so it was good for the price point. Would come back if doing another short stay in Wellington.

Very old run down lodge painted up and cheaply renovated to look like a hotel. Okay for one night if you can get it for a budget price. Wouldn't stay there again.

The hotel room was a little run down and needs some TLC, but it was a comfortable place to stay and had what we needed. The staff were very nice. Restaurant wasn’t available, so not sure what that’s like.
