Super disappointed in this place. Booked as had spa/sauna and pool for kiddo. Spa was same temp as the pool which was disappointing after a hard day. May as well have paid a lot less for a different motel as the rooms were on a par with other motels I have stayed at. So nothing special.

I booked this motel over others as it had a sauna,spa and pool. Unfortunately the spa was luke warm which was terribly disappointing after a hard day working, also the sauna wasn’t warm enough to be comfortable let alone sweat. Probably wouldn’t book again on any of my monthly stays as the rooms are on par with any other motel around this area and some closer to my area of work.

Nice hotel with perfect location from the airport!
Booked this hotel to be close to the Christchurch Airport, and it was perfect. Very nice and clean. Layout was a little odd (lift at opposite end of the hallway from the front desk/check in) but otherwise no issues.
