Oamaru Motor Lodge
Oamaru North

10/10 Excellent

We were tired from traveling for several days and wanted a nice place to rest for the night. The Oamaru Motor Lodge was perfect. It was spacious, had a comfortable king-sized bed, and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The icing on the cake was the big jetted tub we enjoyed together. The studio was so nice, we could have stayed a week or more. The hotel clerk was a very friendly man. The check-in process was nothing--literally. He got everything he needed from Expedia...
