4/5 - Good
John
A lovely location, close to Wellington City and surrounding suburbs. A good rail and bus transportation, As a visitor to the city, a good first stop coming from the north, giving time to adjust to the busyness of a city.

7.4/10 Good! (123 reviews)
Staff were nice to deal with. Rooms are basic but it was what we wanted. Bed was very nice to sleep in and there was no noise from other units. Units are well off the road so no noise there either. Having units so far from the road makes parking so much safer for your car overnight. Would stay here ...

Spacious clean room, very nice sheets and towels and a lovely comfortable bed.

I rented for 3 nights and stayed zero minutes. The problem was, that the room felt too enclosed. The room is downstairs - I don't recall the room ...
