Fantastic value for money for someone looking for a simple overnight stay in the central city, even outside of the backpacking context. A safe carpark building directly behind the building and awesome Wellington coffee right next sure to that. Will be back!

Room was in good condition. Staff fine. But I found the place rather noisey at night. Also, in the bathroom - no soap/shower gel in the shower!

Adequate. Good comfortable bed. Bit run down but clean enough and very affordable. Nice staircase. Surprisingly quiet. Quirky. Ancient plumbing sounds amusing. Decent budget option.
