Rosewood Court Motel

David was very friendly and went the extra mile to help us. Room was comfortable had everything we needed. Shops were nearby. David gave us a map when we got there to show us where everything was.

Very pleasant stay, and highly encouraged to choose this motel! Above my expectation, room comes with small kitchen with adequate kitchen tools, room is spacious, room is clean and neat.

The hotel doesn't have breakfast, so we went early to go to the center to have coffee and buy warm clothes, as it was our first day in NZ and we weren't prepared for the cold. We weren't able to get to checkout in time (which is a very early 10:00 am), and we weren't able to announce the delay, as, again, it was our first day in NZ and we didn't have a local phone or internet access easily. We returned to the hotel at 11:20 am and all the windows in our room were open with all our personal things inside. We were scared, we know Christchurch is a very safe place, but we found it disrespectful. We packed our things quickly to get out of the room as quickly as possible and not delay the checkout any longer, and then came the WORST experience with this hotel: Upon arriving at the reception, we were approached by the receptionist very rudely asking why we didn't notify the late checkout beforehand, asking where we were, and rudely repeating these questions several times. We had to pay 90 dollars for the late checkout, that's okay, because rules are rules, but there was no need for them to enter our room and leave everything open and treat us with disrespect.

Very helpful check in. He asked without prompting if we needed any dinner recommendations, which we appreciated. Spa room was a welcome addition
