Top Timaru Hotel Reviews

Anchor Motel

Anchor Motel

4/10 Poor
"There was no kitchenette as advertised, Had to take the kettle outside to fill from a garden tap. Only one pillow that flattered down to nothing. The toilet window could not shut fully and the toilet paper was a large roll of paper so narrow it made it very hard to complete the business. I realised it was cheap but never again, in the add for the single room it had photo's of what i can only assume was another bigger unit. Very disappointing. "
