The lounge was nicely furnished and also had a single bed; the bedroom had a queen size bed and a large closet; the kitchen... More

Very impressed with this place, everything is quite old but you can tell it's been looked after. It was nice to have a separate area to watch TV instead of just having a Studio! Only thing that really lets this down is its location - Christchurch is much bigger than we anticipated! We walked around the CBD & botanical gardens... More

One bedroom unit (unit 9) which had queen bed in lounge and two singles in bedroom (with room to put up a portacot). Small kitchen but everything you needed. Been renovated and liked quite modern. Absolutely awesom price, with an AA discount on top! Will definitely use again next time in Chch!!

We stayed for the night in a family of 7. We were given two rooms which were on the ground floor. While the property looks rather old, worn out and rather depressing - the kitchen and rooms were clean and comfortable if you are just stopping over in Christchurch for a short stay or layover. The surroundings looked pretty eerie.... More

Do not judge Motel by external design. Internal studios are roomy, spotlessly clean with well equipped kitchen facilities. On busy road but not noisy.Owner/ manager very pleasant & helpful as experienced throughout our 2 trips around N.Z. Very good value in a city that has a shortage of vacancies following earthquake. Can recommend. Handy to lovely Merivale shopping arcade. Say... More

We arrived about 3 hours earlier than the check in time of 2pm and the owner was very welcoming and our room was ready. The studio we had was clean and very spacious for the two of us. It was a lovely short walk down the river to the city centre - which we enjoyed. The kitchen was well equipped... More
