Easy and quick communication with Martin. He met us at the apartment when we arrived in Christchurch. When we arrived he had even purchased some groceries at the market so that we had a few staples and treats to get us by in our first couple of days!
We did have issues with wifi due to a late spring Storm. Martin arranged for his son in law to fix the router and coordinate with local ISP!
We found the neighborhood to be peaceful and centrally located--be sure to visit Addington coffee Co-op as the food, coffee, and staff are terrific.
We had a nice time in Addington.
