Gilmer Apartment Hotel
The shower is small. It’s had to take a shower. The location is hilly. It’s tiring to go up and down the steps. The staffs are friendly and accommodating.

Naumi Studio Wellington
The staff were outstanding, and very accommodating. But take note of the size of the rooms, we were in the Zyn room, extremely small. Hard for two people with one suitcase each to move around. Very hot in room, no AC. Noisy at night due to location near Cuba ST, but that could also be a good thing ...
