"The property was as advertised. It was small. But, had amenities as listed. The kitchen was very small and no place to sit and eat, except outside on the patio. We ate most of our meals in town and none at the unit. Much more private and quiet than a hotel room. The bed was comfortable and the unit was clean and close to the airport. We would go back if traveling to Christchurch again."
