Featuring free WiFi, 2 on Whiteleigh and 239 on Lincoln Motel is located in Christchurch, 400 metres from AMI Stadium. Free private parking is available on site. A flat-screen TV with cable channels and an iPod docking station is provided. I booked a room that’s good for family but realised that I only have a kitchenette. I connected with the staff and they upgraded me to one with full kitchen. The motel is top botched!! Staff is always so helpful with the best housekeeping service that I had in my entire 12 days NZD trip. The furniture and fixture is all so new and well setup. Whole motel Unit is so spacious and clean! The location is very convenient to restaurants and supermarket. An underrated motel, everything is perfect. It’s a motel with hotel service. Will totally recommend this motel.
