The staff were lovely but the property needs an upgrade. The shower water floods out to the carpet. The upstairs water drains noisily outside the windows. condensation is a huge problem so windows had to be opened even when very cold.

I really chose this property because it was central for the time we were in Christchurch, airport / city / friends. The room was a great size, quiet even though close to a main road, fabulous bed & shower. The lady in Reception was lovely and very helpful. Very happy with our accommodation.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The property was fine, it had everything required. I loved the spa bath and the rooms are spacious and quiet. They could make it more appealing by putting a bedspread over the single bed in the lounge and a full length mirror in the bedroom, as well as more than 2 clothhangers in the wardrobe. Staff were super friendly and helpful.

Very nice friendly staff. Comfortable bed. My only criticism is that, although there was a non-smoking sign on the table, the room smelt of tobacco smoke.
