Highly recommend this place to stay! It has everything you need right on site, and particularly if you have kids - playground, spa and pool! Will stay again.
We had a generous sized room and comfortable bed. Our room had all the amenities, although the motel is a little old fashioned. Receptionist is friendly and helpful. Good eating spots nearby. Love the location so close to Hagley Park and the Botanic Gardens. Motel is just outside the city center.
Good location and spacious room! We had two levels with a bedroom on the lower level and additional beds upstairs in a loft style set up. Overall clean, but a little dusty in certain zones. Kitchen had all the basics for breakfast & light food preparation. Dishwashing supplies were provided, which was handy. Overall, happy with the stay but facilities felt a bit outdated, especially the bathroom and shower.
It was a wonderful place to be with Family and Friends ...
The warm Greetings of the people there makes me feel very much welcome ...
Thats why, we enjoyed our stay in there place!!!
The price is fair, the property is good, staff is friendly, quiet at night.
However, the WIFI does not stable, the car park does not design well, the toilet makes loud noise when filling up water.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Great value, did the job.
Quiet, warm and comfortable with everything we needed. Quirky vibe. Bathroom needed a do-up: toilet lid wouldn't stay up as the cistern was in the way. Shower had good pressure but needed a better clean.
Nice clean linen. Great having a wee kitchen of our own. Good parking.
