I stayed overnight at the anchor motel in Timaru New Zealand, I had booked a studio, I’m a seasoned traveler, when I arrived the owner show me the room it was so small like a cell with a bed and a toilet, I commented that I did not booked a backpacker, he assured me that was not it, seeing my reaction he offer me to upgrade at a great cost of a bigger but similarly run down, with holes in the cupboard, etc, and so noisy the electric blanket worked only in one side, to add insult to injury in the morning about 10 minutes passed the check out time the owner knocked loudly at the door, saying are you ready to move out! While at lunch in town the restaurant owner and I were talking he asked where did you stay and I told him, and he said OH No! That is the worth place to stay so that say it all. Stay away.

Good tidy (new) hotel, no frills room although we were just looking for a bed. My wife had an operation in Dunedin the previous day and we were taking a couple of days to get to Oxford. The women at the front was great we needed accessible showers and we were given a well appointed disability friendly bathroom and although scared my wife a user friendly lift. Unfortunately had no hot water in the shower! So that took the gloss off the great service we had received.

The Aigantighe Art Gallery is just a few minutes walk away and Caroline Bay Aquatic Centre a short drive. Situated in a prime position on the main highway at the base of Wai-iti Road (always known as the Bay Viaduct corner before the motorway).

All of our motel units are double-glazed, so the great view and prime location are enhanced and there is limited traffic noise. Additionally most units have its own patio where guests can sit in the summer sun, take in the spectacular views and admire Timaru at its best.
Hadn't booked ahead but was delighted to find they had one room left. Arrived late in the afternoon to a very warm welcome and a lovely warm ground floor room. Impeccably clean, super comfy bed, fabulous hot shower and nice toiletries. Loved the bedside lamps ( as I read before going to sleep and hate getting up to turn out the light) Loved the fact that the hosts remembered me from my previous visit almost 1 year ago. Great value for money and will definitely stay again.

The motel smelled really musty when you walked in, couldn't open windows in front rooms as had funny double glazing covering them. Right on main highway with lot of traffic noise. The bathroom was very small a short person would have trouble reaching the shower over the bath. Had to get in bath to turn it on.

We can't recommend this motel highly enough. Firstly Pam and her team were super friendly and went above and beyond for us and made us feel so very welcome. They upgraded us to a gorgeous 1 bedroom unit which was super quiet with a huge comfortable bed, very spacious and such comfortable lounge chairs, & an extendable dining room table. Also many windows to open for ventilation if needed, with a beautiful outlook onto the spacious garden area. The motel is next to the Botanical Gardens as well, as an extra bonus.

Firstly I must say, check in was great, greeted by a lovely young lady who was very helpful. Room was very spacious and whilst dated well appointed and clean. My only gripe would be the road noise. We were in unit 5 and it was next level. The 3 nights we were there we hardly got much sleep at all, then you combine this with the boy racers on a sat night made our days very long and tiring. To be fair though any motel along evens street would have the same problem. Was very close to the aquatic centre, 5 min walk. Would I stay again..... most prob not because of the noise factor only! The actual unit was fine but the noise was a massive issue for us.
