Ashford Motor Lodge

We stayed for one night. Room is in need of renovation. Very old, worn out and dated. Apparently rooms are being updated but ours was not. Close to town but not too many eateries nearby. Went to the eatery across from the motel, can't remember the name, but found the food to be very overpriced.

It was clean and tidy. But

It was what we needed clean and comfortable and friendly

Excellent recently renovated one bedroom apartment (upgraded on arrival). Really comfy bed. Excellent cooking facilities and everything that was needed for our stay. Well situated just outside the city centre and within walking distance of everything that matters in Christchurch. Also has an outside swimming pool for when the weather is nice.

One night stop over, very well priced, clean and well appointed. Would recommend for longer stays as well.

Nice quiet Motel if you stay in the back. We had a 2 bedroom and each bedroom had a TV which on a cold night is good to snuggle up in bed and watch a little TV. Good heat in the living area. Friendly recieption staff. I asked if they had scales to weigh luggage, and didn't but gave me bathroom scales which worked well. Have stayed here each time I visited Christchurch.
