Awesome location! Kim is really helpful and makes staying here feel super comfortable. If there is anything she can help you with then she will. Lots of access to shopping and greater Christchurch, I chose to use e scooters and bike's which was perfect as there is a bike lane direct to the CBD from this location.
Extra bonus points for Zhen, he's very skittish but my tip is to get treats for him from Kim and also flax, he will be your best friend in no time.
