Very clean with great light. Alide was a fabulous host. She was knowledgeable and engaging Our 11 and 12 year old kids also thought she was very cool. Our family of 4 stayed in both upstairs room for 4 days in Wellington. It's and easy walk into central Wellington, though a bit of a push back up the hill. Overall, though, a good location. Even though we had a car, we found it easy to walk 10 minutes to take a bus over to the Miramar peninsula (25 min) to visit Weta Workshop without driving or parking worries. The provided breakfast and many great restaurants nearby made it so that we did not miss a full kitchen.
