Airport Gateway Motor Lodge

8/10 Good

"Time for a definite refurbishment,"

LyLo Christchurch

2/10 Terrible

"We checked in late due to traveling and decided to stay here since we have an early flight the next day. Reception Staff was dismissive and can only say the wifi details and handed over our keys (not even checking an identification for a prepaid booking) Our room was next to the lift, which we do not entirely mind since we just want to take shower and have a nap for a very early flight. The door opens, and we smell sweat and sewage! We tried to ignore and thought maybe it was from outside. And due to the weather that day in Christchurch (17 degrees) in that small room it can be very hot so we made sure the air condition is working— we set it at 10 degrees and headed out for a quick dinner. After we came back we found the room a lot hotter and a lot smellier than when we arrived. We are from the same industry so we didnt want to be a bother since we are only staying for couple of hours. I turned off the air condition since it is not working whatever button I pressed except the High/Low Buttons and Power Button and opened the window (Thank goodness otherwise we will be suffocated to death!) The bathroom smells like sewage, and exhaust is not working, the bathroom door was ajar and when I tried to slide it in, it cannot be closed, I had to asked my husband to lift the whole door fram to close and open for me to find that there’s a huge gap and you can see the whole thing from outside. Molds everywhere! And bonus part was, there was a booger on the wall. Disgusting! Shower doo"

8/10 Good

"As a suggestion for improvement, it would be great if the breakfast menu offered different choices each day rather than the same selection. Additionally, providing a variety of freshly cut fruits would be a welcome addition and would help create a more enjoyable and balanced breakfast experience for guests."

Bealey Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing staff, they did our room everyday and cleaned the kitchen and toilets. Kitchen is a little tight for lots of people and only had sofas under the stairs at the entrance as a place for people to relax. The fridge in our room was extremely loud so turned it off alot to sleep. But definitely would stay again"
