Gave it another go. And that’s a no from me.
Pros:

So I get some random message saying hey we’re new and better, and as I visit Wellington a couple of times a month decide to give this place another go. Regret! Not only had it not improved it’s got worse!! One life working. Expensive bar. Poor customer service with staff constantly confused. Poor information in the rooms. Promise of sky movies on the tv but no actual sky movies. I travel for work and all I want is a quiet drink at the end of the day and some mindless movie before I sleep. But limited needs aren’t met here. Last stay. This time I promise.

Pros:

We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. Since we arrived early in the morning from Singapore, we had requested an early check-in. The hotel staff were very kind and gladly accommodated our request, which was a huge relief as we were extremely tired after a long flight.

The beds in the room were very comfortable, and we had easy access to all the major landmarks..some within walking distance and others reachable by bus. I would highly recommend this hotel.

the location was very good for us - 6 minutes walk to the bus and train stations.
Pros:

I liked the voucher system they used to reward guests who didnt want clean towels every day

Cons:

we needed 2 singles but got 1 single and 1 queen which took up more space in the smallish room

The stay was disappointing, with no one at reception on arrival, poorly sealed windows that let in constant noise, and a
Pros:

The location was great. A short walk from the city centre and close to the ferry terminal.

Cons:

When we arrived there was no one on reception. I was standing there a few minutes before anyone came to check me in.
The windows did not close properly and with the wind, howled and whistled all night long.
The walls are very thin and there were people partying and smoking in the room next door. Security did knock on the door and they turned the music off however continued to carry on until 5:30 in the morning.

Breakfast was expensive and barista coffee was extra for brekky but they didn’t tell us that until we were charged. Most days we went to a convenient cafe nearby for breakfast.
