Nice size room.
Some plugs are not working and cannot get fixed during our stay. Staff responded quickly and offered to change room but we didn't accept as we don't want to repack our luggage. Provided an extensioon cord.
TV was not working intermittly and seemed to be a common occurrence.
Seems like all problems are electrically related.
Staffs are very nice and respond very quickly.

Nice stay in Wellington CBD. 3min to McD ,Count Down and main shopping street via the lift inside the restaurant. Parking is 25/night ,which is the best bargain in the neighborhood. Try their breakfast, the food is good and staff are nice.

Room wasn't ready, even though I arrived after the check in time. Had a free drink while I waited. Had a bath, but the bath I could feel scum on the sides. In the bath could see under the vanity which was rusty, needed an end to the vanity. In room safe wasn't working. The food and service in the restaurant was very good.
