Everything you need”

Stopover at Christchurch for 1N to catch early morning flight, very impressed as the room has everything you need. The reception allowed us to check in early and we left at 4am the next morning. Very comfortable, clean and good showers however the sink is a little too small. Everything you need is provided and the location is best, great variety of food at Little High which is just 1 street away. I will stay again if I come Christchurch.

Very convenient to the centre of Christchurch, breakfast could be had at cafe in part of the complex. Only downside was the ignorant group who were having drinks, smokes and talkingand laughing at 4am at the table in the courtyard. Otherwise staff were very welcoming and helpful in getting my luggage to my room.
