If you only want to sleep
The room was ok for the price. The bed was comfortable and the TV did work. Under my visit they were not good to clean or empty rubbish, just left a new towel in room. Did never see anybody in reception.

Great spot right in the middle of Wellington.
Does the job for when you arrived at 11pm. Good instructions on how to get the keys and check in remotely. All you need really.

Overall the stay was okay and comfortable and had what we needed for the night.
There was no reception on site but the janitor happened to be in the back and was able to contact owner (?), get our room key and send him a photo of our ID (kinda seemed like a sketchy process). The room is in an older building that had public access from downtown. Not soundproof at all as it’s regular wood doors along a hallway. But overall okay considering the low cost of the room and last minute booking.

I liked the proximity to restaurants/cafes/venues.
I liked the quietness and the very comfortable bed.
Very convenient & safe parking for an additional payment of $15.
The handwash/bodywash/shampoo would be preferable in pump action containers. The present ones were hopeless.

Worst motel I have ever paid to stay in. So filthy I got them to mop bathroom/kitchen before we could move in. Staff don’t speak any english so you have to call a number then that person translates for them. So rundown! DON’T STAY HERE! If I could give minus stars I would! Again, DON’T STAY HERE!

Even though i paid for parking, there wasn't always one available, especially at night.
Couldnt sleep when upstairs tenants were having party and stomping on floor which shakes bottom unit.
Only one washing machine between all units which was leaking and draining down the driveway.
The only positive part is its affordability and availability at short notice.

We booked 4 nights here and stayed one night and left. We were in the older part of the building, when we opened the door to the room we walked through cobwebs. The queen standard room looks nothing like the pictures advertised and was very damp/musty. The wallpaper was peeling, there was cobwebs and dust all throughout the room. The drinking glasses were not cleaned, they had dried liquid in the bottoms still. Huge crack in the bathroom, which could use an upgrade. The area outside seemed sketchy and unsafe. Reception unoccupied during check-in hours.
