Super close and convenient to the University main campus. Riccarton is a main thoroughfare, with busses directly into the city. The studio room I was in had an effeciency kitchen with all the kitchen gear needed. All the staff are lovely and helpful. Extra shout out for super comfy pillows, easy to control (and working!) heat /cool unit, and nice towels. The little things truly make a difference. The Wi-Fi was strong, fast and steady. Great for when I had to work. Parking is a bit tight and tricky, but honestly, who cares?
