“Terrible!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 March 2011

I thought this hotel was shabby, tired and the rooms were ridiculously small.....do not bring a cat....there is no room to swing one! The iron did not work, and the TV was really old and only a few channels worked. We had to ask to move rooms as the first room we were put in was like the broom cupboard which they had just shoved a bed in and called it a hotel room....it didn't even have curtains just a sheet over the window. I have no idea why so many people rate this hotel, it is really bad. Location is the only thing it has going for it. Rubbish.

Enjoyed our stay here, though not sure whether it suffered earthquake damage after we left. Access to our room (13) needed stairs as well as a lift.

“great location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2011

Great location for sightseeing in Christchurch. Rooms quite small, internet didnt work while we were there. Lift also didnt work properly. Fridge in room very noisy at night. I would recommend this hotel but only for the location. There is an extra charge for parking.

“Recommended if you like something a bit different and funky”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2011

Recently stayed the night there on arriving in Christchurch. The location was really handy to everything. Taxi fare from airport to hotel was around $30. The hotel is relaxed and friendly and professional. Was a bit disappointed with the size of the room, it was very small (just enough room to get around the bed). Books, plants 2 free internet stations, ice and microwave for comunal use. I would definitely stay and recommed, but would upgrade for a bigger room.
