City courtyard retreat near Margaret Mahy in Christchurch

Great central stay for coffee lovers Positive: Ee stayed for 6 nights. Great location, modern, clean and comfortable. The handy cafe, Table at Monks, 30m down the road was 5 star with fantastic coffee and food. Negative: Finding a par was a pain at times as there was only on street parking available. It would have been good to have some tissues supplied but if that's all that was negative it tells you how good the stay was.

Would stay again Positive: I saw the reviews about the noise from the daycare next door, but I stayed over a weekend (Fri-Mon) so this did not affect me at all. I did hear when the neighbor next door came home, and was a little annoyed by that noise, but I'm also a sensitive sleeper. The place was clean, more than what I needed, private, great location, easily walkable and a delicious breakfast spot on the corner (Monk). Negative: The bathroom door handle was broken so I couldn't latch it shut, this wasn't necessarily a problem for me there by myself, but it would be an issue for more people - I did send a message to the manager but never heard anything back about it.

Positive: I liked the apartment. It was great. Also the location was pretty good. Negative: It was often hot and there weren't fly screens. We were reluctant, at first, to open windows and doors, but didn't sight flies or mozzies.
