“Clean, roomy and good service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

We had a very bad experience at the Tuscana Motor Lodge (1 Star) and found this motel the next morning. The owner was very accommodating and the place was immaculate. We had 4 of us in a two bedroom unit and it was plenty of room. Recommend highly. A little more expensive than some but worth it.

“Always surprisingly good and not a basic motel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2012

We have stayed here a few times and are always pleased with the apartment size and facilities provided . Very good value and close to both what's left of the city and the Merivale Mall and restaurants. Very friendly staff as well. No noticeable traffic noise from Papanui Road.

Room Tip: Upgrading to a one bedroom suite gives great space

“WOW”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 November 2011

I would thoroughly recommend this motel, which offered everything I was looking for. Good value, excellent modern and tasteful appliances, spa bath, free washing and drying facilities, clean rooms done everyday with lovely clean towels and flannels.
Would stay again.

Spotless place, not even regretting chain hotels.

Was good to speak to Peter.

“Fantastic service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2011

I recently stayed one night at this Motel with my daughter.
The room was clean and spacious, with electric blankets and a heat pump to ensure we were warm on a cold night.
In the morning I asked advise on where to eat breakfast and headed there on checking out.
I accidentally left my I phone in the room and the owner of the Motel drove up to the local shops to return my phone!!! Fantastic service!!!
