Brian was very friendly, knowledgeable and flexible with not only our initial booking but also our extended accommodation requirements. The location is fabulous with everything you need within walking distance or short 5/10 minute drive. Also, having a light kitchenette (mini-fridge, microwave, sink, kettle, toaster, etc.) in addition to a full washer and dryer was very convenient for extended stay. The huge Jacuzzi tub was a welcome respite after our long days of walking. Overall, a great place to call your temporary home while in Christchurch.
