Very comfortable accommodation. Owner/operator was welcoming, provided a tour of the unit and two home-baked muffins. Carrot cake and very nice. Accessories in the unit were of good quality and bed was comfortable.

Our friends had previously stayed and I can understand why the return. The rooms are very spacious and very comfortable. All the bits and pieces you need and the muffin and chocolates were a real welcoming treat. Fantastic visit.

Easy to find. No hassles stay. Unit clean, although mysterious stain on sheet. Friendly staff, nice basket of welcome muffins. One car park right outside unit. Overpriced for size and quality of unit though.

Fabulous accommodation for all the wedding guests, fresh homemade muffins on arrival which was a lovely tough! The owners are a lovely couple and made organising the bookings of 9 rooms very easy so thank you. Rooms were very clean and had everything we needed big thanks to the housekeeping staff who worked hard to make sure the rooms were available for earlier than normal check-in! A wonderful weekend was had by all and I totally recommend the Asure Ambassador Motor Lodge to people looking for a lovely safe and clean place to stay in Oamaru.

After a dire stay in a different Asure motel a few days before we were hesitant to use. However a warm welcome from the lady in charge and being shown the room changed that. Good sized room, fair price for the night. Clean, had all usual amenities, bathroom was designed for disabled so roomy. Shower bit dated but surprisingly good to use. All in all nice stay and would have stayed longer but was booked up. Freshly made home made muffins on arrival were a nice welcoming touch as well and very tasty indeed. From the outside possibly not the most inviting looking motel, right on main road which is busy but do not be fooled by looks, it really is a little gem and we would use again.
