Very clean motel unit on Ashburtons main street, handy to both town, Domain and Aviation centre. The 2 bedroom unit was comfortable for 4 people, shower had hood pressure and there was adequate cooking facilities. Only negative was the extremely hard beds, we all woke with very sore backs.

Comfortable and spacious apartment
This was our first accommodation in New Zealand and we were really impressed by the comfort, cleaniness and spaciousness of the apartment. The beds were comfortable, nice shower, complete kitchen and far enough from the road to not hear the passing traffic. Owners were super friendly as well when we overslept and requested for a later check out.
