Choose me if you're stranded in Wellington,
Emergenct stop thanks to Air NZ cancelling the last flight of the day home. Perfectly situated for the stranded business traveller, not expensive and a good room (size, facilities and cleanliness) for my needs. New World opposite to buy the essential toothpaste and toothbrush at not-airport prices and only a few dollars uber back to the airport in the morning. Reception staff were wonderful.

4/10 Fair

1. There was no milk in the room for tea/coffee. 2. The restaurant/bar closed early because "it was quiet" 3. The rooms themselves are in a pretty poor condition: furniture is scraped up and cosmetically looks awful 4. The whole place is rather drab and not pleasant I wish i had stayed elsewhere. Saturday night partying around the periphery of the hotel was very loud and woke me up multiple times. Avoid this location if you need peace and quiet

Very thin walls, can hear neighbours even when they're quiet. Dated rooms, some things/surfaces felt sticky. Very convenient to town. Very handy having 24 hour front desk.
