We have stayed here a few times. It is clean and the beds are pretty comfortable. The price point is great and Willis street is very central to most things. Parking is a bit tight, but that is the same with every wellington hotel and its only $25 which is cheaper than a lot of wellington hotels. Lots of good cafes not far away.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is tired. The carpets have stains, the decor is patched, and the rooms, and particularly the bathrooms, are basic. I was surprised to see the “earthquake prone building” notice behind reception and attached to the outside of the building. This building has been assessed at only 15% of the NBS and therefore earthquake prone. Now that I know this, I won’t be staying here again.
