Decent NZ Motel.
This is a decent NZ Motel style accommodation. Had a very pleasant welcome from the host reception which was real nice. Location on the arterial roads around Christchurch so with a big carpark is ideal for travellers with vehicles (M/Cycles etc) - Although not far walking from interesting Addington too.
My Favourite bar - The Miller Pub…
Many thanks…
