Wonderful
Huge family room with many more beds than we needed, but this turned out to be useful since we had to repack everything for our upcoming flight home to Oz. Well-equipped room with microwave, toaster, fridge and kettle. The sliding door was sticky at first, but was quickly fixed up. Good WiFi. Although on a busy street, the rooms were set back and quiet. Not far away from a big Pak'n'Save supermarket
Being on the first floor; the owner tried to fit us onto the ground floor, but these rooms were already booked out. The boards of the stairs were too narrow, it would be easy trip and fall down

Very lovely welcome and friendly helpful staff. We stayed two nights and our unit was warm, sparkling clean and spacious with a great heat pump. Enjoyed the electric blankets on the cold nights!

As we arrived in the early hours of the morning, the owners had given us very clear instructions on where our room was and the location and code for the lock box. The room was very tidy and all the facilities that we required were on hand.

Very large space, lots of room! Very friendly and helpful staff. Just a 17 minute drive into town to the Botanical Gardens, art galleries, shops and restaurants. They took great care of us!

The unit was so spacious and had everything you could possibly need! It was exceptionally clean and tidy and the beds were very comfortable. It's a great location and close to a supermarket and mall and only a short drive to the city centre.

Very comfortable bed. Allowed pets which is excellent. Close to Northland's Mall and Papanui. Very central. Owner upgraded me to bigger ground floor unit which I appreciated Very helpful and obliging. Sky TV. Although on main highway little traffic. noise. Good value.
Older units. Hot water in shower not brilliant.. Pressure in the kitchen sink not good. Carpet needs a good clean. However, perfect for a few nights away from home. No complaints really. Will be back and recommend.

Staff were really friendly and helpful. We were upgraded to a larger room when we arrived which was very nice. The room was clean and we appreciated the King size bed. Location was good being on a main road heading into the city with traffic noise never being a problem in the room. We would definitely stay again.
