This location was ideal. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. I would especially like to give praise to Lily who was working in the restaurant. She was so sweet and even vouched for us on a mixup at checkout regarding how many times we ate at the restaurant. She knew her customers. I would recommend this Hotel to anyone wanting to explore Wellington as you can walk to a lot of places or use the cuty bus 1/2 block away.
