Excellent Motel

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 19 Aug 2019via mobile
I got a room here last minute. I called the owner to check on a baby crib prior to booking and confirmed one was available. By the time we arrived (myself and two children) the heater was on, a cot in the room and plenty of bedding for the cot. The owner was extremely welcoming and friendly, one of the best hosts I've come across in a Motel in NZ.

The room was a 1 bedroom which contained a Queen and single bed. The room had a spa bath and a small kitchenette which had everything I needed to heat up and feed the baby. As for my son and I, we arranged Uber Eats.!

The room was clean and tidy and everything was in working order. There were two TVs in the unit, one in the living area and 1 in the bedroom. They had freeview and selection of premium sky channels including Movies and Sport.

We had to leave very early in the morning to travel home to Queenstown and my only criticism would be that I couldn't find a box to drop the key, after hours. Maybe if I had told the owner then maybe he would have given me arrangements?? I ended up leaving the key in the unit.

One final thing, my crawling baby took some plastic things off the blinds that cover the doors, as much as I tried I couldn't figure out how the went back on. I do apologise, I'm sure if you know what your doing it would take 1 minute to do.

A wonderful stay and the top of my list of places to stay in future.

We recently moved to this motel from another one we stayed in. Best thing we did, we've been here several times now and just love the place. Owners are true kiwi's, warm and friendly, with a heap of knowledge about what to see and where to go for great
meals. No noise rooms so great sleep. We take our two dogs, so plenty of room. Great place

The rooms are clean and spacious and the kitchen is really well-equipped and the owners were so friendly and helpful with advice about where to go and where to eat. It was a short but sweet stay and I would definitely recommend it. About a twenty minute walk to the centre but very do-able

We arrived for our first night in New Zealand and stayed at Tuscana. It was easy to find, close enough to the airport for it to be a short trip after a long flight but close enough for a walk into the city centre.

Spotlessly clean, comfy, well-equipped, friendly welcome, ample parking.

This motel is the perfect example of what all motels should strive to deliver. From the warm welcome to the warm departure our hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. The
room was delightfully and tastefully decorated - modern, clean, luxurious with a well equipped kitchen and bathroom. The small kitchen was very well equipped and concealed behind louvre doors, as was the en suite bathroom giving the room a contemporary uncluttered feel. We were on the second level and the balcony had a table and two comfy chairs for that evening glass of wine and al fresco dining.
The town centre was a short but extremely pleasant walk away alongside the river and through the park.
Handy bars, cafes and restaurants also within walking distance.
We were flying from Christchurch to Singapore and it was only a 15 minute easy drive from this motel to the airport.
I highly recommend this motel - you will really enjoy your stay here.

Our family of four stayed here and loved it! The rooms are a nice size and comfortable. Laundry on site. Great vibe. Helpful and friendly staff and management. Walking distance to town plus close to great bars and restaurants. Will stay again next time we’re in town!
