Comfortable and clean rooms.
Even though there's a confusion on the type of room booking, staff was nice enough to provide room on the ground level for our convenience. Location was good, short drive away from Westfield Riccarton Mall. Even convenient to take public as bus stop is just in front of the motel.

Contented...

Very conveniently situated for visiting the University. Plenty of restaurants close by.  Right on the main road and easy to get into the city centre by car. The reception was really friendly and our room clean. Could do with a bit of refurbishment to the 2 bed room we had, otherwise all good.

Easy Access to University 

Super comfortable bed
Lovely lovely staff, very understanding when we want to make changes
Affordable clean everything you want
I come here every time I come to Chch, wouldn’t go anywhere else 
Great motel


Couldn’t ask for better

This motel was great, friendly staff / owners, great location, very clean and tidy and very well priced.
The lady that checked us in  went the extra mile to ensure we were happy with everything, helped us with our bags and even bought us chocolates to our room. Great motel, we will be back and will definitely recommend to others. Thanks!

Great motel

This us a gem of a motel!  The friendliest staff who couldn't have done more to make our stay comfortable.   Rooms are super clean, freshly decorated spacious and well appointed.  Beds are very comfortable with quality linen.  Location is within easy reach of riccarton mall, bush inn and the university.   We will be back!!!

So friendly and super clean/comfortable!

Great little motel, perfect for overnight stop for airport as only 10/15 min drive to/from Christchurch airport. Clean, spacious motel room with separate bedroom, living and bathroom space. Motel was quite warm, although there was a fan available. Great amenities would stay again.

Great little motel 

Very clean, central location, very friendly and accomodating staff when we phoned them to say the road from Nelson was closed and we had to go back to Blenheim and come down the East coast arriving very late at night and they stayed up to welcome us, which was awesome service and indeed "going the extra mile". Thanks very much, will definitely stay again

Top marks

The booking was made through work for 5 nights as somewhere close the La Vida Conference center, and has breakfast available,
When I arrived, the person at reception did not speak English very well at all.  We communicated by written notes.  The unit appeared clean and tidy, and the wifi hooked up straight away.  So far so good.  But Breakfast?  Oh no, not available.
The next day I arrived back at the unit after the first day of the conference, and everything appeared to be in order, until I went to make a coffee.  The coffee I used in the morning had not been replaced.  Still there was sufficient for that night and the next morning.  Just as well I picked up some fruit juice on my way back to the unit.

When I went to bed, I noted that the bed had just been been roughly pulled up, not properly made.  But as it was just me that was no big deal.

Day 3, and the waste bin had still not been emptied since I arrived.  I overcame the coffee situation by leaving the empty rack (that holds tea, coffee etc) balance over the sink.  If the guy spoke english I could have asked for more.

Over the time I was there the unit was not cleaned properly once.  Soap was not replaced (Just as well i prefer shower gel anyway) and the general standard was poor.

Stay away from this place.

This motel has everything except service, cleanliness, and an ability to understand English

Greeted by a guy who was hard to understand on arrival.
Room was tidy and clean but lots of dust behind the TV and couch was falling apart.
Room servicing consisted of removing the rubbish and room was not serviced on the Sunday we stayed.

Average visit

I arrived on Sunday to them not even having my booking even though they were called on Friday for confirmation. Be aware the say they don't give refunds. Lucky they had vacancy. Went to take a shower in the morning and after running the hot water for 5 mins it was still freezing cold. Considering it was only 5deg outside a freezing cold shower is not what I want first thing in the morning. When I tried to cancel the rest of my stay I was told they don't give refunds. Avoid if you like warm showers and customer service.
