“Great value for money!”
Fantastic motel accommodation, very close to the University of Canterbury. Very clean, tidy and well-appointed with everything we need. Two bedroom apartment is perfect for a family stay. Best value for money we’ve found in Christchurch!

“CONSISTENLY A GOOD EXPERIENCE”
I really enjoy staying here! It's so close to Countdown supermarket, Bush Inn eateries, BP petrol station, liquor store. The studio units are great and the beds and linen etc, are AWESOME. Riccarton mall close by with more eateries and shops. I walk around here at night and feel safe.
