Well equipped with excellent beds. The gardens and outdoor spaces were lovely. We really enjoyed our stay ##### Jo C. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Sonia J. 3 Apr 2019 #### One bathroom not two as advertised on Bookabach Had to request more towels, rubbish bags, more glasses and cutlery - not a top standard of cleaning - had to clean back of a chair, some pillows not changed so disappointing when we were travelling with overseas visitors. All requests were dealt with efficiently - lack of second bathroom very inconvenient. Enjoyed the location however, close to great shopping centre, and enjoyed the garden - nice areas for BBQ and for relaxing. ##### Sonia J.

Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael A. 3 Jan 2019 #### Nice Apartment in Good Location, Great Garden A family of four visiting friends in Christchurch, the was perfect for our stay - being both central to the wider city and easy walking distance to Merivale. The apartment is down a drive off Leinster Road and looks small from the outside but is surprisingly spacious and has everything you need - apart from maybe Sky TV. Its comfortable, quiet and well maintained. Two great features are the garden with large, covered outdoor seating area and the covered clothes drying line. ##### Michael A.
