VickiYoung couple - Avg. price/night: AR$ 71,356.778.2Scored 8.2Very goodRated very good· 455 reviewsRiverlodge motel is situated just a few minutes walk from Nelson town centre. The room was sizable and on the first floor which meant some heavy lifting of luggage. There were a few cars in the car park already so we decided to leave the car on the road outside. We had a meal in the town so other than tea and breakfast didn’t make extensive use of the facilities which were more than adequate for a one night stay.
GeraintYoung couple - 4.9Scored 4.9DisappointingRated disappointing· 269 reviewsThe location of Mid City Motor Lodge was just perfect for us. Having a room with a kitchenette. Cost affordable. We could see our vehicle was in a free parking space at all times. Location of the room we paid for, was in a good position as we could see the flea market. Even though its structural building is in the mid city. There was no noise, which I thoroughly enjoyed.
