Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a decent stay at the hotel, which is centrally located in Christchurch right by the casino and major attractions. The penthouse suite was spacious with great views, but it has definitely seen better days and could use an upgrade. Although it was reasonably priced, I was disappointed to find some cleanliness issues and dated decor throughout the property.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel; the apartment was spacious and clean, making for a comfortable experience. The location was excellent, making it easy to explore the area. However, I found the bedrooms to be poorly soundproofed, which was a downside during the night. The staff, on the other hand, were accommodating and helpful, which added to the positive experience overall.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The spacious rooms and cheap parking were definite highlights, but the noise from the nearby bar was unbearable, especially with young kids. The communication regarding pet-friendly rooms was also disappointing, making my stay less enjoyable than I had hoped.
Our stay was a mixed bag. The hotel is showing its age, with outdated bathrooms and noise issues between rooms. However, the location is fantastic, making it convenient for exploring the city, and the apartment was spacious enough for our needs. While it was clean and comfortable, it definitely needs some upgrades.
