Welcoming host Sue and the cat who loves a cuddle Jack. Very nice bedroom with luxurious bed. Very convenient for events in the huge park in the centre of Christchurch. Riccarton very good for various shops with Westfield shopping centre near by, takeaways, bars and restaurants close too. After a month of quiet in the NZ wilds the sound of the traffic on the street disturbed me a little, but it was very nice in the luxurious bed and I still slept well!
