The room was above all the rubbish bins and old furniture, the room stunk of cats urine. The bunk beds ladder was broken and screws hanging out. The bed covers had cigarette burns all over them and dirty marks. Holes and pen drawings on the walls. Windows were mouldy and the overall cleanliness was very, very poor.

Did not like the roller blinds on the windows with large gaps between blind and window. Needs curtains to give more privacy and warmth. Could not get heater to work so no heater and no electric blanket on a very cold Wellington night. Very basic accommodation but staff friendly and helpful.

Detonate dont renovate
The hotel looks ok from outside, and some rooms may be ok, but our room was a disgrace. It really was the worst motel I have ever stayed in. There was filth where the ensuite door runs, mould on the blinds, nowhere for soap or shampoo in the shower which had tape holding the shower outlet together but still leaked. The floor in the ensuite was lined with something like contact. There was an outside stairway over our kitchen. Made of wood and poorly lined we heard every step upstairs guests made going up and coming down. The kitchen doors were flaking on the edges. The room looks like a fishing shack from the 1950's. My grandson was coughing but the motel refused to refund the second night so we could go somewhere else. We asked at 8:20 am. They refused. At 1:20 pm they said if we git out by 2:00 pm we may get some refund. We had nothing else arranged and were in the city so could not get out in 40 mins.

Ideal location.
Our stay at this motel was good because it was very close to where we needed to get to for the weekend. We were on the second floor and our room had all the necessities.

Seems to be a boarding house for those without permanent residences, so it was noisy and there were people hanging around outside alot. I wore earplugs and had a sleep mask so I wasn't that annoyed but be prepared. I just needed a bed and privacy for the night and was afforded this. The lock on the door did not look stable....At $100 a night it was a bit pricey I thought but I did book at last minute.

We stayed 2 nights. Room 7. The internet went out both nights. leaving us without service. There is a woldy water stain from a roof leak in the bathroom. The hot and cold are backwards on the loose sink faucet. The shower has a cracked plastic wall that has been "Repaired" with 2 long pieces of duct tape. The pillows were awful, the bed saggy. the small room had a 3rd chair in it that was just in the way. It is one of those buildings that appear to have had someone just start nailing boards together and see what happens. It is poorly laid out, and all finishes are outdated. it however was relatively clean. The ad states free parking. That means find it on the street, and it is free. There is no parking. We spent an hour on the internet trying to find a place near CBD that had parking. the only reason we stayed is we could not. The add on Expedia states 3 stars. It is 2 stars on a good day.

Very small and poky. Bed linen appeared clean but black mould in shower and room generally grubby, tired and sad. You could only see in the bathroom mirror if you were over 6ft tall. Very weird features - eg cat flap in door and power points above the door.

Booked in to stay after a flight arriving at 11.30pm. I was assured the room would be left unlocked and the key inside. Door was locked so I had to find alternative accommodation at midnight on New Year's Eve in Wellington. Never again.
