Pros:

Easy to check in. Good location. Well equipped room. Has everything you'd need and close to everything in Porirua.

Cons:

They hadn't zipped the two single beds together so they kept coming apart. Room has no air conditioning, so was very warm. The fan did help, but I expect in summer it could be quite hot.

Good location
Pros:

The location is great for bars and restaurants.

Cons:

The heater on the wall kept twanging loudly as it heated up and cooled down, it eventually stopped making the noise after about an hour.

Comfortable stay 😊
Pros:

The room was simple, clean and had everything we needed. The coffee machine and extra tea downstairs along with the vending machine was a great addition. Location was great and also the Free parking ✅

Cons:

If I had to say one thing it would be that the carpet in the reception area and long hallway could do with a deep clean. Lots of foot traffic in and out 😊

It was rainy and windy while we were there but we lived there 30 years ago and should have known . Despite the weather
Pros:

Close to everything in the township and the room
was really comfortable, easy access to carpark but if its full theres free parking from 5pm-8am.

Cons:

Booking in because theres no access until you have a card so someone has to be on the desk when you arrive. Gotta feel sorry for the guy if hes the only one there and has to step away.
