We had room 825 which was upstairs with a spa bath. Lovely views of the beach and plenty of room. Only complaint would be the towels were looking a bit old and Grey with some stains. Definitely need to be upgraded. Otherwise would definitely recommend. We stayed here for an event in Wellington, easy access to trains or busses into town
