The motel is a short walk from multiple shops and within easy access of central Christchurch.

Undergoing painting and not at its best, the motel was nevertheless adequate for my purposes. A wardrobe rather than a coat/hat stand would have been preferable and for any lengthy stay would be, this would not have been optimum

The front desk was very accommodating in letting me leave my bags at the desk since I arrived off the plane before I could check in, and then I explored Christchurch on foot. The room was spacious and well laid out with a mini fridge, microwave, kettle, and dishes. The only thing is that the motel is next to a busy street so it was a bit noisy, but the street calmed down during the night.

We were booked to stay 2 nights but left after one. We weren't the only ones to leave early.
- the dining table chairs were wobbly and not safe to sit on
- the futon in the lounge which was to be used for a bed for our son was beyond the end of it's life and highly uncomfortable to sit on let alone sleep
- the toilet was dirty
- the unit was dirty and walls filthy
- no bedding was provided for the futon and staff were unhappy to provide when requested
-Skylights were positioned directly above the bed in the lounge without curtains. This was unsuitable, particularly for children, given the early sunrise in summer.
- the curtain rails were below the window frame in the bedroom which allowed for light to come in
- the fridge did not keep anything cold
- the cleaner tried to enter the unit before we left. We hadn't told them we were checking out at that stage.
We only booked there as there was nothing else available for 5 people. We will not be back.

Close to Riccarton Westfield

The unit was lovely, tidy, clean and nice decor. A few small areas in entryway that could do with a paint touch up. Outside is superficially tidy but closer to shows a few areas around the bottom of the units and the stairs could do with more than a lick of paint. These details are not negative comments just would enhance the area. Staff very helpful when required. A carving or cooking knife would be a good addition to the cutlery. Kitchenette very tidy and well presented. Very comfortable stay. Very handy to Westfield shops, restaurants, buses, movies and sightseeing.

Great location and friendly staff. Pictures online looked great, however, our room was filthy and smelt weird. The sheets were clean thank goodness. Walls and windows were so very grubby with marks and sticky fingerprints, and skirting boards had a layer of dust and dirt. Corners of rooms had dust and hair. Drain in bathroom absolutely reeked so we covered with towels- looked like it was full of hair, grime and what looked like toilet paper. Seals around bath/shower were mouldy as was around the plug in sink. Dusty furniture. Lots of light coming in through the night so no good of you are sensitive to light when sleeping. Beds were hard as rocks- husband now had a sore back and my hips ache (we are in our 20’s). Unfortunately we will not be returning here in the future.

Great place to stay the only thing would be the noise from traffic on a main road and the rubbish truck coming into the motel at 6am to empty skips

We did not get the room we booked, it was much smaller and not well maintained. The carpet and chairs were stained and the walls and ceiling were dirty.
The curtains were sagging. The bedside tables were wonky and the coat hanger was broken and patched up badly.
The sheets and towels were clean and the kitchen and bathrooms were too. But overall the place felt dirty.
Staff offered a $50 refund if we were to leave and said we needed to complain to wotif if we wanted a full refund. They also said they were fully booked and could not change rooms, yet the car park was not full and the vacancy sign was on outside. I would not go back.

I do not recommend staying here if you have any other choice. We unfortunately ended up here as we had to stop in Christchurch last minute on New Years Eve, I just about cried when I saw the state of the room. It smelt, there was a large bug in the shower, the walls were all marked and lots of broken things within the room. To top it all off not only did we not feel safe leaving our belongings in our room while we were not there we were shocked to learn the room beside us had a brothel operating out of it?!!!! Multiple drunk males coming in and out with some very loud sounds.. we ended up leaving and sleeping in our truck.. what a night!!!!!!

The motel room was unclean. A large stain on the wall, marks on the carpet and windowsills, grime and mould in the shower tiles.
Upon pulling back the sheets on the poorly made bed, there was hair and crumbs. Inside the bedside drawer was what looked like food crumbs and greasy stains. Very very disappointed. I got the manager to assess the room and raised my concerns, he offered a complete room clean but I stated that wasn't good enough and requested a full refund.
I was only offered a half refund which I had to take even though the room was simply not at a clean standard.
Would not recommend.

The motel is in a great location 2 minutes walk to Riccarton mall and 10 minutes to Riccarton Bush. The room was modern, clean and had comfortable beds. Generously filled / refilled with toiletries, tea,coffee and hot chocolate daily. Friendly staff and quick check- in.

Good base for Tranz Alpine

Nice and clean room. Service man gave us a lift to the train station in the morning - so we could catch the Tranz Alpine Train. Walk to high street shop in 5 mins. Lots of restaurants nearby and local Westfield shopping centre. Room was on ground floor, but the sliding glass door faced the busy road, which seemed quite unsafe and for us a bit exposed.

I stayed in a room with no blinds in the bathroom so at night or early morning you could see who was going in there and doing there business from the outside looking in the bedside lamps weren’t working and batteries for remote were flat,I got the stairs to my room so my knees weren’t very good 🙁 I did ask about another room but I got the brush off 😒😒
