Exceptional
We like that it is North of the city - closer to friends and family and whilst on a busy road, it is set back and very quiet in the rooms. There is a park directly behind the motel for kids and pets. The 80sqm apartment room is lovely and large! Good for people who travel with lots of bags ;) The rooms were warm, but had air conditioning to be cooled. The kitchen was well appointed. They had Sky so no need to worry about streaming channels. The welcome we got was lovely, will definitely stay again.
We were happy with everything. It met our needs perfectly.

Huge family room with many more beds than we needed, but this turned out to be useful since we had to repack everything for our upcoming flight home to Oz. Well-equipped room with microwave, toaster, fridge and kettle. The sliding door was sticky at first, but was quickly fixed up. Good WiFi. Although on a busy street, the rooms were set back and quiet. Not far away from a big Pak'n'Save supermarket
Being on the first floor; the owner tried to fit us onto the ground floor, but these rooms were already booked out. The boards of the stairs were too narrow, it would be easy trip and fall down

The room was spacious and very clean and the bed comfortable. It was very quiet even though it was on a main road with good off street parking right outside the room.

Spacious Unit 3 on ground floor.
We were able to borrow an iron and replace towels easily. Staff were very friendly.
One of the single beds was a bit wobbly.
Didn't like the tea bags supplied.

Friendly staff, handy location, and spacious room. Room was clean and comfortable.
The showerhead was quite low - something to keep in mind for taller people. Room is a bit dated.

Very lovely welcome and friendly helpful staff. We stayed two nights and our unit was warm, sparkling clean and spacious with a great heat pump. Enjoyed the electric blankets on the cold nights!

It was a large clean apartment with a very supportive bed and nice pillows. It was a very comfortable stay, the bathroom was a good size with plenty of towels and the unit had a separate bedroom with single beds. The kitchennet was well equipped and it was a very enjoyable stay. It is close to the airport and an easy 15 minute trip to the city centre. We highly recommend this motel and will stay again when we are in Christchurch.
The only thing I was puzzled with was where you plug in the microwave as the lead was too short, as there were no power points near it.

As we arrived in the early hours of the morning, the owners had given us very clear instructions on where our room was and the location and code for the lock box.
The room was very tidy and all the facilities that we required were on hand.
