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.

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.

Booked two king spa rooms for 3 nights. Relatively comfortable, however broken heaters in both rooms (housekeeping did bring us working ones). One spa tub had what looked like blood splats. Great water pressure. A guest kitchen for use was good for our breakfasts. Overall, was happy with stay here.

Never got to stay. I wanted to transfer the booking to another date a month later due to making an error. Expedia let saying that the hotel would not refund the money, which I didn't want to do anyway and the hotel would change the date nor offer any other acceptable outcome. Very unhelpful from Expedia and the hotel, luckily it was only $75 but Kiwi's do not like this lack of service and my review may cost you more than my booking.
