Great mid range motel. Clean and tidy and just as the description said. I bit noisy though, with road noise, passers by and our neighbours keeping us from having a restful night. Bridget from New Zealand. Would stay here again great Motel no worries very friendly Staff.
Judy from New Zealand.
Spacious rooms, clean and tidy, and in a great central location. The wifi could be better but it does the job. Marie from New Zealand. Ian from New Zealand. We use this motel regularly as we like the space in the rooms, especially in the larger multi room units. It is very handy when travelling with children. Leanne from New Zealand.
Good clean and comfortable room. Diane from New Zealand. Fairly easy to locate. Stroll into city and Avon River. Overall the cleanliness of the unit was excellent but the shower cubicle needs replacing or a serious look at as it leaks. Did not have much contact with the staff. K from New Zealand. A very well positioned clean and friendly motel.
Stuart from United Kingdom. We used this accommodation for one night at the start of a self drive tour of the South Island and again for one night at the end of our tour and found it ideal for this purpose. Staff friendly and helpful. Raymon from United Kingdom.

The director of Japan's Military History Archives of the National Institute for Defense Studies estimated in that as much as 70 percent of the army's wartime records were burned or otherwise destroyed.

On a branding level, they have perfectly tapped a consumer insight precious to the something male — the high praise bestowed upon friends, acquaintances, or noteworthy strangers: In addition to branding, some serious conversion work is going on here too.
And, there is something about the music and walking the beach with proper glassware that gets me to both on- and off-premise. Thank you Southern Comfort.. I wonder if we'll get a quote from someone other than the person or people who worked on the campaign That was pure envy, not self-promotion!
Everybody and their brother gets mentioned in the credits Anyone know who he is? I don't drink at all, and I never go to bars,etc.. I don't know why.. This ad is quite possibly the most disgusting ad I have ever seen. To see a company go this low is sad. You are also in a educationally deprived, hick minority of about 4 other sad morons. Check out intelligent opinion on this ad anywhere it appears. How utterly pathetic are you? Why is it disgusting?
Because the guy is comfortable enough in his own skin to star in an advert? As for the advert well its always nice to see someone who has'nt been airbrushed away to nothingness Probably what your used to seeing in your "vogue" or whatever other presumptuous crap you read. What a sad person you must be if you cannot appreciate the sheer class of this brilliant ad in all it's delightful aspects!!! The fact that you choose not to justify your remarks just goes to show the level of your ignorance and demonstrates your total lack of intelligence, I mean why bother to take the time to voice your views without justifying your criticism?
Personally I'd prefer to keep my distance from people like yourself and keep you and your family well away from my own!! I love this guy It is hilarious and real! Comments are real too. I am not in advertising, and I don't drink much. But as a man of a certain age, the ad seems brilliant!
Caught my attention, without a doubt! Reminiscent of a scene from a bad ass Taratino flick. I've never seen a commercial that says so much, with so little and one in which the viewer can project so much onto the character. The fact is we all know this guy, and we sometimes envy him. He lives an unencumbered lifestyle, drives a '67 Buick Rivera, and still listens to a reel to reel tape player in his apartment. He's get's along with all three ex-wives and he's perfectly fine eating dinner and going to a movie alone.
He ocassionally plays the horses and get's together with guys from the precinct for some Texas Hold'em. Would love to see this made into a movie! Oh and heee's back, he has reached the patio! Just wondering how many the ad team had in them prior to hitting on this Any idea who the actor is? People saying it's Mike from the Cuban Brothers but I'm pretty sure it's not
