Ailsa's place is well located - close to a bus stop and not far from the central city, yet in a quiet area. It's well appointed and spacious. It's also scrupulously clean and excellent value. Most important, Ailsa is the most considerate and gracious hostess anyone could imagine. When we had some unexpected drama on our final night, she went far beyond the call of duty. We've stayed here about six times now, and will return every time we visit Christchurch.
