AI Summary
The Wellington accommodation provides complete facilities, convenient location near attractions, and exceptional, friendly service. However, some guests find the bar to be a bit loud.

I stayed one night in the single room and I have mixed feeling about it/ for sure good value for money and ok service as I asked a quiet room. but still it was quite loud and the room was quite dusty and quite old. You could hear everything from the outside and the fridge in the room is so old and loud. Don't think I will be back

I was constantly sexually harassed by Indians. Changing rooms was useless. There was an Indian in every room. The customer service changed my room card, but!!! I didn't stay for just one day. On the second day, I couldn't open my door or other public area doors (the card was invalid). I asked the staff, and he said he couldn't handle it. He could only open the door for me once. This resulted in me not being able to use the toilet or take a shower that night. I was afraid that I would not be able to return to my room once I went out. This was such a terrible experience. I won't stay here a second time.

The location is quite convenient, there are many restaurants around the building, especially many Chinese restaurants. The transportation is also quite convenient, the overall environment is quite clean, and the facilities are quite complete.
