Great staff. Very friendly. The location was great for our touring around Wellington. We like to use local transit and the bus was just steps away for both directions. Clean rooms and they kept restocking our coffee every day.

Room was clean, and comfortable and have most things that were needed. The problem was that the door didn’t lock. By the time I realised reception was closed. Nothing happened overnight, but it did leave me feeling a bit insecure. Reception was still closed when I left in the morning so I wasn’t able to say anything to anybody. For a transit stop on the way to the airport, it was fine.

Room 8 The room smelt. Dirty dishes. No fire alarm in unit. Overall condition was poor, with lots of damage to fitting and boards in bathroom. Tv only had on normal tv channel.. and four sky channels.. Wouldn't recommend this low standard model to anyone who asks.

Pretty Disappointed

I was pretty disappointed with my stay. The place is run down and could really do with some TLC. I even looked at what my other options were for accommodation after I had checked in. I have a feeling that the motel is being used for WINZ clients who have no respect for other guests and normal sleeping hours (especially for a Sunday night).

O

Not that good than all the other reviews said. Good location, quite close to everything especially if you have a car. Rooms are bit of out dated especially bathroom, clean though all around. Big minus have to give from the bed and mattress. Spend two nights in that bed and it was not funny. Bed seems to be quite new but WAY too soft for 70kg woman and especially for 105kg guy. Back were really sore and stiff after night.
