Hi Gang,

Just thinking on the way into work that when Karen and I arrived in New Zealand, we had no where to stay....we thought we could sort it all out once we got here and were pretty lucky to get into a hotel for a couple of days.

We then found the Quest on Johnston (in Wellington, but there maybe others out there) and for a really good price they gave you a decent kitchen, washer/dryer and double bed with satelite TV...we loved it and it really helped us to have a secure base to start our adventure with.

Just for those who maybe worried about their initial accomodation, we rated this a 9 out of 10!

Cheers

Rich

Do they by chance have internet access in the rooms there?
Thanks,

Funny that my company put us up there for 2 weeks when we arrived... Can't remember about the internet though...

Hi Guys,

Yep, they do have access, you have to pay them a charge, not quite sure what that is though.

Cheers
