If you are after a cheep very basic room, you will be fine, it’s really a 2 star hotel in my opinion. Very dated and worn, but the bed was comfortable.

It's a shame because it's in a great location. If they put more love into it, it would be excellent. We came in winter, and there was no blanket, and the bedspread was burnt.

Beth

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
It was warm once heated and comfortable. It was pretty clean and tidy and the staff were friendly however could have physically greeted us rather than sitting in the back room talking to us through a doorway. Our room had lights without working bulbs. There were dishes provided but no plug to use the sink to wash them. The extra bed in the communal area made seating uncomfortable for watching TV. The $30 fee for 2 nights parking seemed steep and should really be a complimentry service unless people have more than 1 vehicle or something oversized or built into the price rather than an extra. Overall we enjoyed our stay but thought that these areas were constructive ways to perhaps improve guest experience. Besides the parking it was great value for money.

We knew this wasn't going to be a super flash place. It is what it says it is, a safe and convenient place to stay at a reasonable price. The room was not super clean, but the bed sheets were. The car park is very tight, but we still managed to get our Toyota Estima in and out. I was surprised at how quiet it was. Would stay here again, but keep your expectations in check. This is convenient more than fabulous.

I cannot say it was dirty but it was dusty, things were never moved to clean under an object. But I loved the space in general! The old house! The convenience! The furnishings! The kitchen space! The patio outside the room! Walk to anywhere you needed to go! Spacious parking!

I actually think it was ok for the money- not many other choices at this price in central Wellington over a busy holiday period. The sheets were clean and the bed comfortable. I slept well. However, I do think the cleaning could be more vigilant- the shower curtain could be washed more regularly and I went to pick up something I dropped so noticed the accumulation of dust, etc under the bed.
