Booked motel for 2 adults and 3 yr old . Comfy bed. Blankets stained. Bathroom / toilet had green mould . Was advised I was in room upstairs but next day could move downstairs once a disabled person left. I hadnt requested a room downstairs. I thought he meant he was giving us the option if we chose to move. Didn't think any more about it. 1st day my 93 yr old mother experienced a power cut which lasted entire day. Power by 6pm still not on so I contacted the motel to request a room for my mother . They accommodated this. As we left for motel power was restored. Recontacted motel within 10 to 15 minutes to cancel the room . Manager refused to cancel as he had already called the housemaid to turn the bed back ( whatever that means). Cost $90.00 then said will you still want to use it!! Arrived back at motel and manager showed us to the room and requested I didn't use the shower, towels or kitchen facilities!!! Next day went out had a phone call from motel staff to say they had removed all our belongings to the downstairs room. I had not requested a room change. I was very unhappy they entered and removed our belongings whilst we werent present. Returned in evening to find the upstairs room we previously had now had a red light in window. We all know wat that means. Not child / family friendly environment. Would not recommend.

The only thing I didn't like was that it advertises on the sign outside that they have 50 channels of SKY TV and that certainly wasn't the case. Apart from the sports channels and maybe four of five others, most channels were unavailable. Apart from this, it was not a bad place to stay, and very convenient to the Riccarton Mall,
