Very sorry to say this, room 803 smelt like a cat had left a present in the room. That aside, the property was clean and the staff were super friendly

Convenient to central Christchurch and also very quiet.
Reception when we checked in was bit frosty as they seemed think we did not have a booking.
Otherwise a good place to stay.
