The step into the shower was too high for my elderly mother. Because of the steps we were able to access from Evans street. Staff were helpful with that information for access
Really enjoyed our stay here. The unit was very comfortable and well appointed. The hosts were awesome. The unit had lovely views and was conveniently located. Will definitely be back when we next visit Timaru.

Typical motel stay, safe, opposite a big park, easy access to grocery shopping etc,
Nice staff, simple.
Is what it is!
Check in was easy. The room was very spacious and great value especially if you had three people travelling together. Coffee grounds provided for brewed coffee. Comfortable beds. Would definitely stay again.
Great service and very tidy rooms. Close to supermarket and food stores. 9 minutes from the Airport. Very convenient. Thank you to the Ashbury Park Motel staff. High recommend.
Clean unit, friendly staff.
Did not have a full private bathroom. Handbasin in bedroom without sufficient lighting, shower and toilet in another area.
Extremely noisy location, traffic noise all night.

The customer service was wonderful. We found the unit very cold when we first arrived. It took a couple hours for it to heat up. Also the wifi was not very good at all.
Great for a couple or family members but one negative being the toilet/shower and basin are all accessed off of the rear twin single bedroom which could be difficult depending on the realtionship of the respective guests?
