We stayed there in a one bedroom apartment on arrival into Christchurch before heading off on a South Island road trip. There was a Westfield nearby with a Pak N Save supermarket enabling us to cook simple meals on the cook top. There were eateries within walking distance but we didn't try any of them.

The motel was fine, just as it was shown on the site. We had a unit at the back which was perfectly quiet. We were only there one night but had no issues or complaints.

We booked in error and cancelled within 12 hrs after realising. Despite numerous requests, and the assistance of Expedia staff, the management declined our request. Though this is our fault, it goes to show the property is only interested in its bottom line rather than whats right.
