Lots to explore in Christchurch and this apartment is in walking distance to all. Everything is spanking new due to the earthquake of 2011. Clockwork Towers seems like a business of renting condos so it is not like staying in someone's home but they do a very professional job. Communication was great, lots of nice touches like basic food supplies and plants. Easy in and out with a smart lock. Particularly enjoyed the botanical gardens and Hagley Park which is very close, Quake Museum and the Transitional Cathedral. Mexicanos is a great place to eat as well.
