Pour un séjour rapide

Motel situé en banlieue nord de Wellington, chambre très petite quasiment de la taille d'une cabine téléphonique et donnant directement sur la voie publique. Un arrêt de bus situé devant le motel dessert facilement le centre ville et des supermarchés sont situés à 5/7 minutes à pied. A recommander uniquement pour un séjour de passage.

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.
