"Boulcott Suites is a great place to stay. It's our second time. The staff at reception are efficient and respectful. The rooms are beautifully clean, with a full kitchen, including an electric jug which is often not present with coffee machines becoming so popular. There is a roomy dining and living room and outside sun deck for warmer days. Comfy warm beds, bathroom and toilet, basin off the second b.room which they don't mention. And hiding in the cupboard is a washing machine & dryer and iron. Wonderful for your stay in Wellington., you'll not be disappointed. The shops and restaurants are right on the doorstep. You'll not be disappointed if you book your stay there."
