Karen's place gets an A+. It is attractive, spacious and very clean. She provides explicit directions which makes check-in a breeze. The on-site parking space is roomy and convenient to the bldg. entrance. The lift is big enough to accommodate thirteen people.
The kitchen was well stocked with coffee, spices, cooking oils, a bottle of milk and even toothpicks. It is equipped with top notch appliances, and all the silverware, and chinaware you need to prepare meals. The bedroom is roomy with plenty of closet space and the bed is very comfortable. The bathroom is well organized with a spacious shower that has good water pressure and more than sufficient hot water. Karen stocked the bathroom with shampoo, conditioner, body wash and toothpaste.
The apartment has a balcony on which four or more people can eat meals comfortably.
If you're looking for a place to stay in Christchurch, I don't think you can do better than Karen's apartment.
