Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

Very nice place. Clean and bright. Good walking location to the city without staying in the high rise areas. The carpark is a short walk away from the house which is the only small inconvenience but compared to other Wellington options it is a good situation.
