Good - location and friendly staff. Close to shops and restaurants. Rooms are well equiped and clean. Good water pressure. Bad - No exhaust fan in the bathroom, after shower bathroom fogs up and stays wet for ages. Need to open windows to air rooms out, but directly outside the window is a carpark not 2m away, so people are constantly coming and going right next to your bed.

The bath and shower were both really good, as was the bed. However, it was hard to sleep due to lights that shone outside from the verandah into the bedroom - even with the blackout curtains closed.

I could not fault this property, we advised we would arrive late, we were provided lock box information and on arrival to our room the light was left on and the heating was on. The room was serviced each day and were plenty of towels and fresh milk every day. We will definitely stay here for our next visit to Christchurch

朝食は、前日のうちに運ばれるので最初は違和感が少しありましたが、部屋の中にはトースターや電子レンジ、フレンチプレス（コーヒーを手軽に淹れることのできる抽出器具）、冷蔵庫、食器なども完備されているので、他に必要な食品を買っておくと朝食に加えることもでき、連泊すると次第によいと思ってきました。
