super nice host. self check in available with lock box. wifi works well. large space with separate kitchen area and lounge and then bedroom and bathroom area. host had bread and fresh eggs and other bits of food on arrival which was so nice. has a microwave and even the portable electric stove top plates. shower was good, sink was wide, bed was on the soft side (apparently a nz thing) but fairly comfortable. quite close to the centre of christchurch. just note there was no tissues or paper towels and a kind of negative would be no on site parking and the driveaway is steep so you have to carry your luggage up and there wasn't any parking space next to the house so had to park opposite a little further up. overall recommended though, nice clean place with good amenities.
