      “John”

      The units are quite dated, but the price seems reasonable comparing it to other motels in an overpriced market in Christchurch. The stairs to the upper units are quite steep and staff were not about to help with the luggage. Taxi $30 to the airport.

      “A night of comfort and ease of access”

      Things I like
      I like the beautiful room, how everything is neatly organized. I like the brown-haired lady, she is very friendly and kind. I like how they allowed me to park for a couple of hours while I'm in Uni.

      It is amazing, if the rooms are not fully booked then I would have stayed there for one whole week. I prefer it to some new hotels or other motels :)
