Superb, no complaints and would happily stay here again. Our go to hotel for trips to Wellington
Pros:

Everything from start to finish. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Location was awesome and even with the rugby game on at the stadium, it was very quiet. We did not expect the bed to be made for us when we went out on the Saturday but came back to a nice surprise. I have already recommended this hotel to my parents and mother-in-law.

Cons:

We bought a jar of coffee as there did not appear to be many. This was the only downside which to be honest is trivial.

Pros:

Nicely laid out. Bed was comfortable. The alarm clock had usb c charging.

Cons:

No 2 seater couch.
The ventilation system was louder than the wind outside. So poor night sleep. Condensation on the window. Reason for ventilation system. Looking for parking was was confusing when booking in.No disable parking.

Pros:

The room was well laid out and had everything I needed, I particularly appreciated a Bible in the bedside table.

Cons:

The room would benefit from double glazing as I was aware of the hum of the nearby ferries, particularly on my first night
