The owners where very rude to me * Made to feel unwelcome * Was yelled at by the lady for soiling my sheets and called disgusting, When i am women and got my period in the middle of the night * I was accused of being a working girl because I had a man visit me late at night * And was told I shouldn't be back g sex while on my period * Emailed asking for a late check-out and it was approved than to be yelled at by the man for holding things up however I did explain I had an email saying the late check-out was approved * So to say my stay was terrible is an understatement, However the room was clean and tidy

Lovely spacious 1 bedroom unit, with full kitchen and a bath was a bonus! Top marks for allowing a 12.00 midday checkout at no extra cost. Unfortunately the cleanliness was a let down as was the faulty body wash and empty conditioner dispensers in shower. Overall was a nice 2 day stay and would return.

Don’t be deceived by Motel exterior - Lovely Room

Rose was very helpful when we arrived as needed to drop luggage early before returning our car to the airport. The room was lovely. Very tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. Everything we needed for our stay and convenient for the city. Would recommend and we will be back next time in Christchurch.

Hot water use would result in a loud pump going definitely on its last leg, otherwise in a good area central to everything and the room layout is quite classic

Kathleen

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The impression I got was that the owners are not interested in either their motel or the comfort of their guests. It was freezing cold 1 celsius one morning but all they had on the beds was a thin bedspread type cover, not a duvet or blankets. The TV had only a few channels, no Netflix or youtube. There was no pressure in the bathroom hot water tap and the shower floor was dangerous and slippery, an accident waiting to happen. The unit could be made so much better and inviting, sadly a complete disappointment.
