Very good size room and location for the city. Plenty of eating options nearby. Free parking. WiFi worked but not very strong. Room cleaning didn’t happen when we were there for 3 nights.

Close to CBD, walkable, easy to find location. About the room. I booked a twin room, small space but adequate. The shower door did not close completely therefore water pooling on the floor when showering if not careful. Great kitchen fully stocked with everything you need on a short stay.

Convenient to central Christchurch and also very quiet.
Reception when we checked in was bit frosty as they seemed think we did not have a booking.
Otherwise a good place to stay.
