A great place to stay. Walking distance to restaurants, shops, parks, botanical gardens, etc. Bus stop is right around the corner. The apartment was clean, tidy and had all the amenities for cooking and a comfortable stay. Penny was super responsive to any questions I had. An excellent hostess. There is some construction going on next door, but that is out of Penny's control and it wasn't that big of a deal since I was out during the day. I would stay again when I come back to Christchurch.
