It was much easier to find than I had expected with the reviews. The staff was very helpful. Our room was an upgrade that I had not expected and was very big and well equipped.

Didn’t like the room outlook onto an ugly old wall with half dead sparsely planted greenery that didn’t hide it. Averaging over $500 per night that’s not what we expect. Have stayed here a few times over the last 17 years since we left NZ, but this will be the last stay. There are far nicer choices.

The property is convenient for where we wanted to go and do while we were in Wellington. Easy to get to from the motorway.. They upgraded our room to the 2brm apartment which then allowed our daughter to have her own room and not just a pull out bed.
