Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Unit was very small indeed with only two chairs at the table to sit on - a limitation given the room was booked as suitable for three people. Beds were extremely soft. Unit is tidy and a little worn as might be expected for relatively cheap price. People are allowed to smoke on the balcony directly outside the units, which is unpleasant.

Difficult to provide a wholesome review, as we arrived after hours and left first thing in the morning. Host was very accommodating with late check-in, hassle free thru lock box. Host happened to be still up and welcomed us with Wifi password :) Room was nice, spacious and very clean. All up, definitely accommodation I can recommend. Thanks

Was surprised when a neighbouring guest unlocked our room at midnight with his key. He’d picked the wrong room. No harm done but hadn’t realised this could be a possibility. Otherwise we had a comfortable stay and found the facilities very clean and well serviced. The owner was friendly and helpful, allowing us to charge our EV

I stayed for 5 nights. Slept super well as despite being by a main road, the windows kept most of the noise out. Staff were super helpful and away from the main road, leafy suburbia in Spring was a beautiful walk.

We spent 4 nights in a 1-bedroom unit which was comfortable enough for our needs. Everything is a bit dated but functional., & we were able to heat meals, do laundry & sleep well. Access to & from everywhere we wanted to go was easy, especially once we worked outa "back route" to Mcfaddens Street!

Everything about this stay was fantastic. Possibly one of the best stays I've had in Christchurch. Beautiful clean, quiet and warm room with lots of room amenities, even air freshener spray in the bathroom! Nice easy parking, clean and tidy property. Easy check in and out. Easy to get around the area. Would book to stay again anytime

Last-minute booking via Expedia, but possibly one of the fastest-ever check-in. Second-floor room, one back from a busy road – remarkably quiet. The room and bathroom condition.1st room on my trip with UTH milk potals (remember to buy milk before arrival)

Overall, very clean and comfortable. It could even be better if the room was not smelling of cigarette smoking. I will be happy to stay there and recommend it highly.
