I cannot recommend staying here enough! Will, Erin and their son really welcomed me into their family. I stayed here for 5 ½ weeks whilst working at the University of Canterbury. The property has a great location just 10 minutes to the airport. The bus is also situated on the purple line, which goes right out the front door, which takes you into the city via the university or in the other direction to the airport.
The sleepout was a great combination of my own space as well as use of the kitchen etc. The desk in the room also provided a good place to work. I had an absolutely lovely time staying with Will and his family, including playing board games, making pancakes and celebrating Chinese New Year with fireworks. They also kindly came to support e running a half marathon.
