Tony and Monique are excellent hosts. They know when to step in and give helpful advice and when to step back and give their guests space. We were visiting friends that live in Christchurch, so after a warm welcome when we arrived Tony and Monique let us be.
The place is exactly as advertised. Compact but clean and tidy with a great shower. The kitchenette is we appointed and we appreciated the little oven/grill and hot plate. The off street parking close to the apartment entry is perfect and it was a nice central location to all the friends we were visiting. The windows do look onto the driveway and garden but that wasn’t an issue for us as we were mainly there at night and in the early morning when we kept the curtains closed for privacy.
