Longbourne Lodge Motel Mosgiel

The environment and facilities here were good. It was located in a ranch about 10 kilometers away from Dunedin. It was already late when we checked in. We booked four rooms separately. One of them was unsuccessful. The boss (a serious old man) upgraded our family of three to a family suite. We were so happy that we renewed the reservation for one day. The next day, we went to Dunedin city to play for a day and then went to the supermarket to buy food and cook it ourselves. Who knew that our car was leaking oil the next night? After negotiating with Zuzuche, they said that we had to wait until the car dealership here went to work tomorrow to find a solution. The next day, we waited until 10 o'clock and the problem was not solved. We explained the situation to the old man, and he was very enthusiastic to help us contact the car dealership. While waiting for the rescue vehicle, the old man said that we could stay in room 4. The rescue vehicle came and said that it could not be repaired. So there was another long wait and constant negotiations. Finally, the car dealership agreed to send a car to tow our car away. It was 1:30 in the afternoon. The old man asked us to pay another night's room fee for room 4. I negotiated with him and said that generally many hotels can apply for late check-out. If it doesn't work, only half a day's room fee will be charged before 6 o'clock... Who knew that the old man said that we are not others, and if you don't pay a day's room fee, he will call the police immediately! I was full of gratitude for the old man's shelter, and I wanted to give him a little tip to show my appreciation, but I didn't expect the result to be like this!
