Great, warm and clean room with clean Linen and Bathroom facilities. Staff was exceptionally on point with requests and welcoming. No issues with the accommodation although parking is tight and some guests can be a bit rowdy. Overall a good stay if you are on a budget and need a warm and cozy bed.

"Peaceful Sleep"

The room we were meant to stay at had plumbing issues and so he had arranged another room for us to stay at in another building and it was lovely! He had upgraded the room for us from a standard to a king's room. Everything was clean, had new linens every day and the place was were equipped.

Lovely owner

Rooms were spacious and had a proper  air conditioner   only a few blocks from city. It appears some rooms are rented out long term which have attracted noisy renters, I stayed 2 nights and the last residents were noisy till early morning, so my other booking in a week later was cancelled by me.

We arrived after 5pm on Friday night and were welcomed by the motel owner presumably - all very pleasant. Across to the room and I dropped onto the couch opening a gap between adjacent squabs - filled with some sort of food chips. Goodness knows how long they had been there. A quick look round showed windblown leaves inside the door and carpet that had some sort of staining and tattiness. Shower before bed had the bathroom door and bedroom door failing to shut - possibly a remnant of earthquake damage. Next morning, plugged the razor into the power outlet in the bathroom - no go. Maybe that was because I assume the power socket was a traditional socket rather that a protected bathroom type socket. Generally not very clean - my wife saw things I missed being a mere maie - general grime and indicating lack of genuine cleaning.I concede this was certainly not the most expensive motel in Chch but I expected better than we got. 

Disappointing visit

Looked lovely on internet, however it was very dated and then found out this motel is used emergency housing so has people sitting outside of rooms smoking etc. Beds were comfortable. Staff were very obliging. 

Not quite like the Internet

Didn't end up staying. Arrived only to find the motel being used for emergency housing, didn't geel safe to stay. Manager did have another site that they put us up in which was ok, othwise we would have canceled booking and found somewhere else to stay.

Even though located on a busy road the traffic noise was minimal. Great location, friendly staff and good, clean amenities. We will use again. Thanks

very dusty, carpet not vacuumed only tidy room was the bathroom.

average

Spotlessly clean, comfortable beds, powerful shower, quality linen andsoft furnishings, well equipped kitchenette, outstanding caring customer service delivered with a smile 😃  thanks for another great stay at abbey motor lodge - we will be back!!!

Outstanding customer care ❤

We stayed for one night in a family room. The receptionist seemed to struggle to find our booking made on booking.com but she found a room for us. We appreciated her letting us check in an hour early. We were in a family room with two twin beds in a spacious separate room and a queen bed in the living area. The queen bed was against a wall with made getting in and out a bit frustrating for the person sleeping on that side. The unit looked like it had been recently renovated and was clean. The room didn't have air conditioning and was a little hot and stuffy in January. The bathroom was spacious and modern. The motel was a short walk to the central city.
My only suggestion would be to change the bedding configuration so the queen bed isn't against a wall and also turn off the light outside the ranchslider at nighttime as it is very bright and even with the curtains it lit up the room all night.
