Great spot, very reasonably priced.
4.1
Booked motel for 2 adults and 3 yr old .
Comfy bed. Blankets stained. Bathroom / toilet had green mould .
Was advised I was in room upstairs but next day could move downstairs once a disabled person left. I hadnt requested a room downstairs. I thought he meant he was giving us the option if we chose to move. Didn't think any more about it.
1st day my 93 yr old mother experienced a power cut which lasted entire day. Power by 6pm still not on so I contacted the motel to request a room for my mother . They accommodated this. As we left for motel power was restored.
Recontacted motel within 10 to 15 minutes to cancel the room . Manager refused to cancel as he had already called the housemaid to turn the bed back ( whatever that means). Cost $90.00 then said will you still want to use it!!
Arrived back at motel and manager showed us to the room and requested I didn't use the shower, towels or kitchen facilities!!!
Next day went out had a phone call from motel staff to say they had removed all our belongings to the downstairs room. I had not requested a room change. I was very unhappy they entered and removed our belongings whilst we werent present.
Returned in evening to find the upstairs room we previously had now had a red light in window. We all know wat that means. Not child / family friendly environment. Would not recommend.

4.1
Quite and good location
4.1
The only thing I didn't like was that it advertises on the sign outside that they have 50 channels of SKY TV and that certainly wasn't the case. Apart from the sports channels and maybe four of five others, most channels were unavailable. Apart from this, it was not a bad place to stay, and very convenient to the Riccarton Mall,
4.1
The unit was immaculately clean.
The manager was super nice, polite and helpful.
4.1
Great motel, clean room, friendly helpful staff and close to Riccarton Mall. Even though on busy road, not too much noise from the traffic.
4.1
Would just like to make a comment on the firmness of the bed. It was to the extreme. Very uncomfortable, but other than that great.
4.1
Fantastic location. Close to everything. Room and bathroom were clean and serviced daily. I would stay here again if I an back in Christchurch
4.1
Well they no longer have all the Sky channels, guess the package deals may have changed but the channels i usually watched, Crime, ID and a few more were no longer available.
4.1
Liked the location. Didn't like the bed it was brokenthen moved to a room that not similar to what we paid for. It was a cheaper room with less facilities and our room was no longer serviced.

Highly recommended

Great place to stay. Great service.

Only thing was our money coming out of bank account before we arrived.
Thought that was taking liberty.
4.1
5 stars for very friendly staff.
Though the property and facilities are getting old - some are broken. Average cleanliness - the towels were stained.
4.1
The spa bath plug leaked and needed topping up. Hot water filling the bath was really slow. TV was not great. No ice cube tray. Very small but the bed was clean and comfortable. Notice about using towels more once?. Electric blanket not working and overall not very warm.
4.1
These good be lovely motels but sadly very tired.Couch uncomfortable beds uncomfortable with a plastic underlay and various other sheets under bottom sheet. Curtains and blinds shabby and dirty. Carpet has stains and holes.Sink is partly blocked. Would could be a lovely private outdoor area is unkept and furniture turning green.Hopefully someone will love it again.yours sincerely Lesley Brocket ( Former motelier)

The place is very close to big shops and very handy to coffee shops. Easy to find. The room is clean and no big issues
Except my only concerned is the bathroom floor I find it very slippery.
4.1
The hotel canceled my booking last minute at the time of check in around 7 pm when no one is there at the reception. After 30 mins they told me that transferred my booking to another hotel - Econolodge. The other hotel charged me for the night even though I refused to stay there. And now I still dont have the refund on my card. Orbitz is not even helping here.
4.1
i loved the spa bath and the cleanliness of the room itself
4.1
Handily placed to Riccarton Mall. Small rooms, but makes for a cosy stay. A couple of things in the bathroom need looking at, so a bit more care would enhance.
4.1
I didn't notice until morning there was no milk in the fridge & the office wasn't open at that time. Just an oversight I'm sure. Most helpful in keeping my bag after I checked out for me to pick up later
4.1
Staff checked what we needed daily as we stayed more than one night.
Traffic noise was a bit of a concern, but used to it by night 3. Parking not as easy as thought, but sufficient.
4.1
A pleasant 2 night stay. Very cost affective. Clean, tidy and relaxing
4.1
Ok
