We stayed here during the Covid-19 level 4 lockdown and booked it the night before we checked-in. We stayed for three weeks and felt a home! I almost wished we could have stayed longer. The apartment is clean and comfortable and has everything you need for a short or long stay and in particular a well equipped kitchen. The owners are responsive and helpfull. Although not much of use in our situation, the location is very central near bars and restaurants. Nearest supermarket is 10 min. walking while several large supermarkets are within 15-20 min walking distance. Also the balcony (with sun all day) was a real advantage during the lockdown. Only disadvantage is that the internet is not very fast (about 10-15 Mbs). Good enough for surfing and e-mail, but insufficient for (HD) streaming. It is supposed to be high-speed fiber, so the low speed could have been caused by the increase in internet use during lockdown. It would not bother me when on a "normal" holiday, but fast internet was one of the reasons to spend the lockdown in Christchurch, so that was the only disappointment we had. Besides this, is was perfect!
