I stayed in unit 8 - I was really happy with the location of the motel, also how quiet it was. The check in was a breeze, very lovely welcome. I was very very impressed with how clean my whole room and bathroom was- it was next level. I had a lovely balcony to have a cuppa tea and dinner on. I am definitely staying there from now on when I'm in CHC. The mall was straight across the road, loads of eateries to choose from. The bed was super comfortable.!!

I loved this motel, it was nice and quiet, and handy to the mall and great restaurants. I will definitely be back. The only downside was that my room was not cleaned the 3 days I was there. The 1st day I was on zoom calls so declined a request to clean. Unfortunately the room was not touched after this.

An excellent price for the area. Very friendly, polite staff. I arrived at 1.45am from an international flight and pre-organising the key collection was straight forward. It was great to arrive with easy instructions and to find the heater and lights were left on for my arrival. Thankyou

The best motel i have ever stayed in. Candi and her family who run the property were literally falling over themselves to help us as much as they could with anything we needed. The facilities in the room has everything you need for a short or long stay. We were there for two weeks and could easily stayed longer. Being just across the road from Riccarton Mall was extremely handy too.
