If you only want to sleep
The room was ok for the price. The bed was comfortable and the TV did work. Under my visit they were not good to clean or empty rubbish, just left a new towel in room. Did never see anybody in reception.

We felt the pictures online were not the same as those we actually ended up with. We had been recommended this by a friend, and were disappointed. There were no extra blankets, pillows, or even a chair and small table to put things on and have one of the 3 booked guests to sit on, aside from their bed.

It does not look ANYTHING like the picture! At least not from the front! There was no-one there - they operate it remotely. The entrance hallway smelled old and musty. The bathroom needed a good clean / renovation. The bathroom door didn’t fit properly so you had to slam it to get it to close. The extractor fan and several lights didn’t work. The net curtains and room in general needed a good clean. As we went in the room in mid afternoon the curtains were all closed, not inviting. The beds were very soft, but surprisingly I slept well. It was cheap and very close to bars and restaurants.

I booked a Budget SINGLE bed ROOM in the Lodge: The K/S bed was very comfortable, and the linen fresh & clean: Own bathroom was a huge PLUS, and it was very adequate. Great shower: A small fridge & electric jug was nice to have: Some basic cutlery would be helpful. Only one teaspoon provided: A bowl for cereal would be helpful: A glass & mug provided, but mug had chip on rim: The cleanliness of room and bathroom could be a lot better. I used many Anti-bacterial Wipes and I left both rooms far cleaner than I found them:

Terrible service
Bad service. Had to pay for parking even though it's not a hotel. Wasn't told that only credit cards are accepted, and that Debit Visas would be declined which is the most bizarre thing I've experienced as I pre-paid for the room with it. We paid cash and they didn't even have change.

I liked the proximity to restaurants/cafes/venues. I liked the quietness and the very comfortable bed. Very convenient & safe parking for an additional payment of $15. The handwash/bodywash/shampoo would be preferable in pump action containers. The present ones were hopeless.

the photo shown on adverts is not really the lodge, it is the house at the back of the main building. This building is old and in need of serious renovation. .All the linen was very good and clean. I got the cheapest unit I could find as I was on my own and only needed a bed to sleep in for a few hours. So it served its purpose.

2/10 Poor

Room did not look like image - dark and pokey and absolutely no ventilation in building or room which had jammed windows. 2 thin pillows on bed. Wifi not reliable- rang duty manager twice- no one in reception from around 6 pm so no one to help as we wanted to change to a bigger room. (probably owner) who passed the buck. Poor security as outer corridors open and accessible to the public all night. Yucky hair behind loo, no hand soap- we did not use the shower as it looked yuck. Would rather stay in a clean safe youth hostel.

Great spot right in the middle of Wellington. Does the job for when you arrived at 11pm. Good instructions on how to get the keys and check in remotely. All you need really.

We did not stay here and would like our money back. The man who could not speak English showed me three rooms to choose from all of which we very dirty. Scuffs on every wall, carpets ripped and not vacuumed. Each spa bath had stains, scuffs one had paint splatters all over the bottom. Other had dirt. One rooms bed spread had stains on it. I took some photos as evidence. My children age 6 and 4 wanted to go home immediately after being very exciting about a night in the city having a mini holiday. Very disappointed, disgusted it was horrid. I would like a full refund as we did not stay and told the host all of the above. Please make contact to discuss this further.
