The property was ideally situated for me to take a short stroll to where I was working. But there is no shortage of choice when it comes to, pubs, restaurants, grocery stores, or hardware, and a wide selection of boutique breweries and shops.

Thanks Susan so much for help us to do later check in.It’s really appreciate.
I have stayed before and this time I was disappointed. The car parking was so bad I will not be going back. It was the car parking that attracted me to this property in the first place. Parking I could not get into, repairs on my car. Never again. Sorry
Only serviced one day. But we could have created that confusion..

Our Foreshore unit while clean and well provisioned was a disapointment.
Tiny, cramped and more than a little tired, the interior of our unit certianly did not reflect the lovely brick facade outside.

Very convenient motel
Two nights. Room was clean and well serviced with a kitchenette (Microwave, kettle, fridge). Bathroom was clean with a bit of wear in places. The shower gel dispenser was difficult to use properly but nothing major.
The motel is well located with only a short walk to many restaurants and a supermarket close by. It is also located close to SH2 which make it easy access.
I was happy with my stay and lovebei g near the beach and the convenience of lots of cafes and restaurants nearby.
My o ly complaint is I was very cold as the heater wS not very effective. e.
We stayed in the family suite and we loved it..! Everything was provided for and was tidy and clean all round. We recommend this lodge to everyone who wants to explore the area..!
Lots of things we liked- close to the beach, shopping, restaurants, Petone is a busy place from what i remembered so Jackson street too busy no parks but where we stayed was great.

A handy motel if you're after something that is pragmatic & basic. Even though there are signs of natural wear, the cleanliness & tidiness of the property is spot on. Staff is helpful & lovely. Handy location to shops, restaurants/cafes on Jackson Street & Shoreline cafe, right around the corner from the supermarket & best of all, it's right across the road from the beach & my favourite Seashore Cabaret!

Very small and limited cooking facilities for the price we paid. It was totally over-priced!

Stayed here the night. Pretty basic. A bit run down. Very expensive for what it is. Microwave had broken internal glass. Mismatch stuff Very old damage. Kitchen brush disgusting. Better value for money in Central wellington
Firstly My wife was surprised there was no SKY TV! We just assumed it was still there. You may want to update the motel guest books in the room.. I notice the last date for this was 2013 on the tv channel page. Your carpark is tight for modern vehicles and some people could be forced to park on the road if you are not in early. I managed to park by the office on the first night because of congestion in the carpark... Yes cars and utes and bigger now than ever or are they? Remember Valiant and Falcon in the 1970s? I guess the motel was built in the late 1970s? .. Just pay to change the kitchen light bulb.. Other wise I enjoyed it

It was way over priced at 165 per night, no air conditioning, no Sky
Friendly welcome. Clean and comfortable.
Unable to tune tne TV to TVNZ.
Kitchen equipment good, just needed a cutting board.
Will be happy to stay again.

A room here is very expensive for the quality of the room: $156.00 when really it's a $85.00 room at best. Painted concrete block walls, just barely enough amenities in the room.
I know it's Wellington but this is overpriced for what it is.....
