Our room was nice and simple. However I think the heater inside the room is automatic we can’t adjust at all we are not sure if working or not though we don’t bother coz we don’t need we on the aircon outside. The amenities is just right though I think we did not get enough supply of milk, coffee and sugar as we only get when we arrived and we stay 24-27. As well as toiletries. For staff no complain had very fast transaction. Overall still recommended to my friends as the location of the place is very near to city. Planning to come back on Spring,

I chose this motel because it is close to the Christchurch train station at Addington (for Scenic Train). Clean and tidy, has cooking facilities, however there are not a lot of places to eat nearby and requires a bit of a walk. Also note that if you look at where the station is relative to the hotel, it looks like a direct walk but you cannot cross the the rail tracks without taking another 0.5 km detour.

Disappointed

Very tired motel in desperate need of an upgrade. I didn't expect that based on the pictures provided. My room was next to the highway and although the traffic noise was muted, it was still at times quite noticeable, especially as the morning traffic started up. There were other odd noises in the room as well. However, despite it being very bright outside with street and other lights, it was relatively dark in the room. Bathroom floor was discoloured so although clean, it looked dirty. Old stainless steel shower and overall bathroom was large so hard to heat up. Bed was comfortable and good choice of pillows. Didn't use the kitchenette so can't comment. Only bonus was being able to leave my car there until 1pm as parking in the area around the hotel is extremely difficult to find. Overall I was disappointed with the room.
