"Have been back here the second time and it just keeps getting better! I booked 2 different rooms for our group. They gave us an upgrade so we can be closer to one another. The staff are just too nice. Parking space is HUGE. The motel always smells so good. We love the homey feel of this motel. I commented last time that the place had no hairdryer so they made sure we got one - how attentive are they? We visit Wellington often so we will be booking this place every time from now on :)"

"Excellent location. Beds and pillows great. Bathrooms good. Spacious for 3 bed apt. Staff nice. Downsides very pricey for not having the room serviced over the day ( we were there 2 nights), having the pressure washer on the bedroom window's at 8.30 in the morning was loud and unexpected, the apartment was up a flight of stairs ( no lift access) which would have been good to know in the listing. It really is the location that makes it a good place to stay."
