Awesome hosts, great place.
Anne and her husband Honghong are awesome. They are friendly and helpful. Their house is close to the bus stop, just 1-2min walk, so you don't need to worry even if you don't drive. You can reach the city center easily by bus. Their house is clean and tidy, as shown in the photos. It was a pleasant stay and I enjoyed the time in Christchurch a lot. Highly recommended.
