The motel is perfect for a stayover and is at a good location from the airport. The staff were lovely and really helpful. They offer a complimentary shuttle to the airport and even went out of their normal office hours to take us to the airport which was really helpful for us.

Economic overnight in Christchurch

Good clean motel, friendly staff, close to airport and easy to get to. Only let down was the bed which continually rolled towards the TV when you got on it, there has to be some way of stopping this annoying feature in motel beds! They always seem to be on the move as soon as you look at them!

Was clean but there had obviously been a flood in the bathroom and the vinyl was very marked and the vanity effected by it. The one heater in the lounge was just about enough to warm the unit up on a winter night. No plug in the kitchen sink. Was OK for one night stay.

Disgusting Motel

This was a filthy run down motel. we were in unit 6. The mould and stains through the bath and toilet were akin to a 3rd world public toilet. The place was run down , very noisey and busy road outside the window. Absolutely disgusted... photos on the site are not reflective of the experience. We left and went to another Motel. We have travelled the world, nothing compares.

It's fairly dated, older units, but it served the purpose for one night. It was very clean, the shower was good, the beds comfortable, so it worked well.
