Friendly staff and organized hotel.
ALVIN, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice and easy Motel.

This Motel had most of the comforts of home. Just a touch on the smaller size, but still ok. Parking ok, location ok too, but a bit far he you want to walk to the Riccarton mall. I have stayed here before and Happy to stay again if required.

The owners went the extra mile to fit us in for another night at late notice, and helped us find accommodation at the neighbouring property when they were full.
Sandra, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Helpful staff, clean property. Good location - right by a number of bus routes into the city and to the airport, close to uni and shops - although this means it can be a little noisy for the front units.

6/10 Good

Main living area was very small and more suited to a maximum of 2 people. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was OK with basic necessities. Sofa in living area was quite uncomfortable. Overall not a bad place to stay, but nothing outstanding about it.

Riccarton Motor Lodge again

As per on other stays the Riccarton Motor Lodge is the best. Great hostess and host. Staff always pleasant and say hi. Lovely big room. one point we did think great was the TV as in some motels we stayed in we have had trouble but the tv was explained by a leaflet circling what you touch and where. Comfy bed, great shower, facilities great.
