Very good location close to the main road. Bakery opposite. The supermarket is less than a kilometer away. Good laundry along with a drying room (thanks to the nice lady from the reception I did not have to pay extra). Very nice and helpful staff. My room with the bathroom was small, but in my opinion it was worth the price I paid.
The location is quite superior. On the main road, there is a gas station nearby. There is a convenience store with a late opening hours. It is rich in things. Many restaurants in the town are closed at 9:00 in the evening. There is also a side. Park, good scenery. The front desk was very nice and the reception was very kind. When checking in, I also sent local fresh milk. The labor cost is higher there, and the front desk and the cleaning seem to be one person, so it is best to clean it when you check out. There is also a beach in Timaru. In the evening, you can see the blue penguin homing. If you miss the Omaru Penguin Protection Center, you can choose to watch it inside.
To every one who's reading my review,my mum who has a Disability,my brother an i,we stayed at this Motor Lodge,on Friday 29th October,the lovely couple that run the motel.they made us feel welcome,they also looked after us,and told me if we needed any thing to to see them an they would do there best,to get what we asks for,plus there Disability Unit was a very good one,its just like the hospitals,walk in with a wheel chair,it was very excellent Accommodation,we were all very happy with the service,the cleaners were very good as well,nices to chat to The Manger/Manageress,a very excellent lovely couple to as well chat to,so any one looking for accommodation go to that motel,they do there best,an i am very grateful,as well there meals are very nices Well done guys at the Avenue Motor Lodge,very high rated by me
The equipment is very new, the room is very clean, the front desk service is very welcoming, and there is a large spa bath, great value for money! The biggest advantage is that the Wi-Fi signal is very good! Thank you, I will stay here next time!
DATE OF TRAVEL: July 2023 Stayed here for 3 days for a business trip. First impressions were.... disappointing. The hotel was empty, the chef was also at reception and the building looks run down. HOWEVER, check in was fast, the rooms were well appointed, if well travelled, and the bed was very comfy. Sadly I didn't get back to my hotel room until late night each night but the breakfast was fantastic and affordable. All the staff were super friendly, welcoming and accomondating. Room walls were thick as I didn't hear my colleagues in the other rooms at all, even when we were talking. Shower was great. Good pressure and the bathroom had all the basic amenities you would need for a regional motel. Though some people may not like it, the interestingly spaced corridors made the hotel feel like a rabbit warren and I actually quite enjoyed that. The gym was probably the best one I'd seen in all of my hotel stays in Canterbury. I was really impressed. Sadly it was closed before I left and when I came back so didn't get a chance to try it. It's only a few minutes away from the main restaurant ***** of the town and the food at all of them was fantastic. Caroline Bay Beach is beautiful and I enjoyed my morning walks there. Would I stay again? Though I may never have a need to again, most definitely if the need did arise. First looks are certainly deceiving with this place but push through it and you'll find yourself a gem of a stay =)
The motel is conveniently located near the Botanical Gardens south of the centre of Timaru. It is on a main road, but we heard no road noise, despite being only two units back from the entrance. Staff were friendly and helpful. We had the impression that our unit had been built a couple of decades back, but had been renovated to a modern standard. It was spacious, with a large living room, a small kitchen, a spacious bathroom, and two bedrooms each with a large double bed (this meant the space around them was quite narrow). We were very comfortable there.
We received a very warm welcome at check in and enjoyed our stay in a spacious room. Good cooking facilities, comfortable bed and good size bathroom. Located a short distance from the main shops, bars and restaurants this motel is well placed. We felt we received very good service and that we enjoyed value for money. We have no hesitation in recommending this motel to fellow travelers.

GGuest UserWe switched up our itinerary last minute so was limited on availability. I selected this and were addicted a bit early sns they happily accommodated us. Additionally they offered some discounted restaurant coupons. We had a corner unit away from the street. It really was quite large and enjoyed the 2 sofas. The amenities in the bathroom were plentiful too. It was a clean unit and the receptionist was very helpful and pleasant. Good to know about this ”chain” for the future!
GGuest UserThe hotel has free attached parking within walking distance to the sea and you can go visit the penguin nesting area. We got a large room with a kitchenette and balcony, Everthing is clean and wall maintained and the owner is nice ana helpful.

GGuest UserWe stayed here while on a biking trip in the South Island. It was two level accomodation adjacent and below a main road. Walking distance to green areas and supermarket. The unit was clean but had an unusual layout in the bathroom and second bedroom which wasn't ideal. There was no sound proofing between floors where we had kids running around upstairs late into the night and workers using this as a base coming and going. It was not restful with additional traffic noise. Wife was not happy with the amount of light from outside lights reflecting onto the ceiling from the top of the curtains. The manager/owner was very pleasant and helpful and we were able to park safely with our bikes. Location was ideal for us although entry was via a side street. Would be stay again. Probably not.

HHSIUCHUThe bed slept comfortably. The equipment is in Yangchun, the bathroom is narrow, and the vanity top is veneered, and it has been opened without a hair dryer. The inside of the kettle turns yellow and is not good enough to use. Poor sound insulation, audible sound next door.
TtravelerererCaroline Bay, really beautiful and picturesque, we are driving by the way, passing this bay, so stop, blowing the sea breeze here, looking at the scenery, really too comfortable and leisurely.
王王海娃子Timapu was a port for cattle and sheep, and I didn't expect that there were so many plant species here. It is located in the south-central island, with high latitudes, but the botanical gardens here do not lose to the North Island.
