Mick was very responsive with emails and even provided a padded cover for the futon sofa bed that we recommended beforehand (we have a similar one). He left some things for breakfast which were a very nice touch.

The location is fantastic! - just across from Christchurch and walking distance to some many things. Lots of buzz outside but almost can't hear anything when the windows are closed.

The apartment is basic, as seen in the photos, and clean and comfortable. The apartment building is very cool and has a garden inside and one on the rooftop terrace.

As this is a new listing, a few additions to the apartment may still be a good idea, including more lighting - but that's just to improve what is a terrific apartment.

Thanks Mick for a great stay!

Note: our best find near the apartment was the Fumbally Cafe...12 mins. walk from apt. ...south down Patrick St at Fumbally Lane. Can eat, read and hang out in a large cozy space with sofa chairs, guitarist, books, and fresh food.
