Absolute must stay. Peter is an amazing host with an amazing home. Highly recommended! Would definitely stay here again. Peter was very accommodating to all my needs and was easy to get a hold of when I needed anything. He is very knowledgeable about the city and things to do in the surrounding area. He is extremely nice and has a great sense of humor. The neighborhood is very safe. There is street parking always available for those with a car. The home is large and spacious. I never felt confined. There is plenty of space and multiple rooms to have your own privacy when needed. Everything is very clean and comfortable. The shower is strong and the bed is cozy. Plenty of pillows and blankets provided. There is a small back yard area and Peter has a beautiful rose garden as well. Peter offered breakfast in the morning which was a nice tough as well. A good selection of spreads with toast and a good selection of cereals. I had zero concerns staying at Peters home. With all that said the most enjoyable part of Peters home for me was his dog Otto. One of the most adorable and well behaved dogs I have ever come across. If you're a dog lover then staying here for Otto is a must on its own. It was great to wake up in the morning and relax before bed with Otto close by. He keeps you company while letting you do whatever you need to do. Never needy for attention but always ready to keep you company. Definitely staying at Peters place again if im back in Christchurch.
