Cosy house in a very quiet and safe neighborhood 10min walk from the University of Canterbury. The bedroom I stayed in was on the ground floor, fairly spacious and very cosy. It had a heater, which was very helpful in the cold days of October. Very comfortable double bed and plenty of space in the wardrobe. Roy is a very friendly host who immediately makes yourself at home - at the same time, he knows how to respect your privacy, so that was really convenient too. I shared one bathroom with another guest - at first I thought this might be a problem, but turned out this was not a problem at all, as guests have their own schedules and we hardly ever met (so the bathroom was always available). Roy also made me free to use the (spacious and well-fitted) kitchen, so I could buy food at the supermarket and have it properly stored in the fridge etc, which was convenient and saved me a lot of money. By the way, there is a supermarket 2min walk from the house, and also bus stops nearby to go both to the city center or to the airport. Westfield Mall is 30min walk away, not too far through a beautiful neighborhood. All in all, I TOTALLY RECOMMEND Annie’s House to anyone visiting Christchurch, especially if they have any activities connected with the University of Canterbury. Thank you very much again, Roy!
