Was a 2 night stay...location is on Bealey Ave which has high traffic flow recommend unit towards the rear or the property...unit was fairly basic ....bed a bit hard...bathroom could do with better storage even a shelf would be good...car parking bit tight recommend backing into the car park if you can.

Beds are so comfortable, comes with electric blankets, the pillows were the best ive ever slept on, they were thick yet soft, the towels were soft and fluffy, theres a wall mount heater in the lounge area, plus a fan heater in the bathroom for those winter days. Kitchen is well equipped with dinner ware, cook wear, even supplies dish liquid. Wifi access is really good . I would stay at this motel again.

Tidy, quiet, centrally located motel with a reasonable tariff. Having free, on-site parking was an advantage compared with some other central city stays.

Frount desk worker was extremely rude. He Asked how old my baby was then made it seem like a problem when i said shes 1. I already payed online and he made me search for my card in my car that was filled to the roof due to travelling so he could take photos of the frount and back of my visa card. (I am not sure if this is allowed or not but it made me feel uncomfortable) The Room wasnt cleaned properly, hair in bathtub and when tried to use the bath jets they made the bathwater murky so i assume the jets need a good clean. I guess you get what you pay for. Then apon reading the guest book i find that the room keys unlock the laundry door so if all the room keys can unlock the laundry door does this mean all the room keys are the same and can unlock any one elses room? I felt very unsafe anyway, i didnt even stay untill the sun rose the next day.

Ants in the bathroom and the manager didnt really care. He said there was 2 dead ones, but we had had showers and they had been washed down the plug hole. Felt like he didnt believe me, so I took photos of the 20 ants in bathroom when checking out. Didnt care. Also room was left unlocked after room had been serviced which isnt food

We liked our stay, staff were friendly amd room was spotless. We stayed on a very hot day and there was no airconditioning and the large glass sliding door faced the evening sun. Staff tried to mitigate this by having the windows open. The location was great and we were able to walk into Christchurch central and along the Avon river in the evening.

The motel was in a central location enabling an easy drive to the CBD and the Shirely area. The staff were very friendly and ensured my stay was hazzle free. The only draw back was the state of the IT system. Each unit was only permitted to have two devices connected to the WI FI. These days this is very unusual and when ther are two people with two devises this creates problems. In addition, I experienced many instances of the WI FI frezzing / not working - very annoying and an unacceptable state of affairs.

I was there with my wife and two teenage children visiting from the US and everything was great. The beds are very comfortable and it was nice to have a kitchenette. We had to change one of our days and the manager/owner Andy was very helpful with our change. We will be driving back that way and staying again next week. The rooms are really good and the price is very reasonable.
