Oamaru Motor Lodge

Quiet place to stay didn’t hear any traffic noise, was clean tidy and comfortable

Pleasant, comfortable and clean unit.

It was very comfortable and clean. Easy to get it (and get out) Definitely good place to stay for a reasonable amount of money

It is a bit far for the centre

Very happy with everything

The mugs were too small

No breakfast. Very convenient.

Ill fitting cupboards

The size of the room. The vibes. The overall quality was very good. The shower hot water pressure was excellent. Sky TV that had sky sport so we were able to catch the NHL game that was on. Quiet despite being on main road. Electric blanket on the bed. Heater and fan in the room (instead of heat pump - which we didn’t mind as heat pumps can be loud), free wifi, free parking. The best and most easy to follow “service room” or “don’t service room” sign process of any motel we’ve stayed at. Close by to a good takeaway shop, the rainbow confectionery shop, and the Whitestone Cheese Diner, and not too far from the main part of town.

Only 2 pillows on the bed that were rather thin (and no spares in the wardrobe) There was a cobweb in the corner of the room, a usb powered lamp on the bedside table - but no where to plug it in - which we just found odd as a decor choice since there was another standing lamp next to that (though one light bulb wasn’t working in it). On our second night, with all the windows/doors shut, a smell from outside made its way into our room. It was only when I opened the door and poked my head out and the smell was stronger outside that we stopped panicking that something in our room was maybe burning (didn’t know if it was the dusty standing lamp or a weird food smell). Other than that everything was great and we’d stay again in a heart beat.

Standard facilities, comfy bed, spacious bathroom

No heat pump only a small convection heater so it was freezing when we arrived and couldn't leave it on when we were out
