Good but smallush
The room & bathroom was a little small but bed was comfortable. Room, bedding & bath towels were clean. There was no room to sit down to eat even though there was a small kitchenette so we ate out at High Street Eatery (highly recommended- walking distance). Staff were good & helpful. Quiet area even though some guests were not. Overall a good overnight stay before flying home.

I am not sure about the noises from somewhere. Strong base sounds, feels like a club. It is quite bad and serious

Good location. We had a studio room that was pretty tight for space but good for what we wanted for a couple of days. Laundry facilities were very handy. Staff friendly and helpful.

Good room with a huge balcony. Limited on-premises parking that has to be booked in advice. Public parking nearby has very inconvenient payment options - you can only pay for 12 hours at a time.

On arrival, found that the bedsheet was dirty with stains. We arrived very late at the hotel so next day I compained about it and the receptionist flatly refused to accept the fact that the sheet was stained and showed the photos of the bedsheet.
Also there was no parking for us and we were told that we should have prebooked a spot and do send and email to state that one needs to prebook but we did not receive an email or any notification to the prebooking parking space. Had we known there we were not going be allocated a space we would have booked our stay elsewhere in Christchurch.
The 3rd day receptionist was very helpful and suggested an off street parking.
