8/10 Very good

A bit grubby and in need of renovation
Robin, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Perfect location to Cuba and Courtenay, all necessities met for an overnight stay. Spacious room. Can't complain about pokey bathroom considering all other locations were more expensive with a shared bathroom. Suited perfectly for a Sat night out on the town.
Dorothy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very cheap, in the middile of town. The whole place looks a bit rough around the edges but the staff keep it very clean.
Jason, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

A very basic room without any window, inside an old building. Air exhaust of the building was noisy all the time like flying in an aircraft. Small Bathroom and kitchenette/ fridge adequate and clean, also very minimalistic. Clean sheets but floors not clean and sticky, can’t have been vacuumed let alone washed for a long time. Gaps between floorboards full of dirt. Would not stay again. Location very handy and central, bus stop opposite building, easy to walk everywhere.
Edel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very helpful manager Well priced Would stay again
Mehboob, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

We should have been told there was a lift and how to exit the building Good value for money Clean Own bathroom Nice touches like shampoo soap towels
Kevin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great walking distant to food, pubs and nightclub. Secure hotel to stay in. Would recommend to whānau and friends
Leigh-Maree, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was ok for the price paid. Best thing about the hotel is its central location. Walking distance to almost everything.
Annie, 12-night trip

6/10 Good

Adequate for needs

It was lovely and quiet. A cheap room with all you need. I liked the community area and wasn't aware I could cook so that was a bonus for next time. Squeaky floors but an old building. It suited me fine and location was close to what I want
carol, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

We only needed a bed to sleep in so met these needs well. Its handy to central Wellington
Josie, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place is an adventure and if you like great location and almost no facilities its ideal
Andrew, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The worst accommodation I have ever stayed at. Hotel manager is unprofessional, rude, unhygienic, and a total scam artist
Nick, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

I didnt like the creaking floors the barhroom door wouldnt close smoothly and the reception was barely maned it was a comfortable bed and gave you a place to rest or wash up but wasnt the greatest stay
Guy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was fine and clean, very basic accommodation but I was not in search of luxury. Good value considering the low price and central location. No exterior windows, so if you like the room very dark at night will be perfect.
chad, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Bit dark and dingy, concrete floor very slippery
Keith, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Didnt like the receptionist
Kenneth, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Rooms are clean and tidy, building in poor condition.
Grant, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Staff are extremely unprofessional and rude! I stayed there last week and was not even greeted by anyone no staff were even there. I called a number left at the desk and was treated like an inconvenience.
Nick, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was ok, the bed was relatively comfortable, and the property wasn’t as bad as the reviews portrayed it to be. The tv had Netflix which was a bonus. The shower was good. It was relatively quiet considering how the property is in the middle of the party precinct. It is more like a backpackers than a hotel, but of a relatively higher quality than a standard backpackers.
Dayvson, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The extract ducting was noisy. The shower head needed replacing a long time ago. Lifting the toilet seat i found it hadn't been cleaned from the previous tenants, the toilet brush is disgusting and a health hazard. Finally mopping the floors with a dirty mop is not classed as cleaning. The floor was sticky and i witnessed the mopping in person. The whole experience made me feel sick and i would never come back.
John, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Do not stay here ever!!!

Unhelpful staff unable to complete checkin

2/10 Poor

Room hadn't been properly cleaned, whole place is rundown. Would not stay again
Simon, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

She barged in our room while my lover was in the shower
Malachi, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was clean and tidy, but the walls were paper thin, the guy next door snored like a freight train all night, the floors were noisy when people walked over them in the early hours and late at night, you could hear people’s conversations loud and clear in neighbouring rooms. Extremely basic rooms.
Debbie, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I will never return

Never return. Place is old dirty and service is very poor.
