Having safe off street parking for my car was great. There was a good supply of breakfast food and even fresh fruit/veges available.
The large bed was most comfortable.
The available shower was much in need of some renovation and the bathroom seemed to be in a disarray with the other housemates personal stuff about the place. I felt a bit like I was impinging in their home.

GLENN is an awesome host! He's a pro in the real estate and corporate business, shared wisdom and shared travel tips in New Zealand! He ensures we are comfortable in our stay.
We booked his place for 5days! The house is lovely and has a character. We love that "its your home in Christchurch" the feeling of being at home, with all the things you need - kitchen, a functional washer and dryer, the comfiest big bed with lots of pilllows, a room heater, a smart tv with netflix, a shared/private bathroom thats clean, a private parking space and he provided daily free breakfast! choose from bread, spreads, eggs etc.
His place is easily accessible by bus (Metro and Orbiter). We love walking and we walked from his house to the City Centre in 30- 45mins while traversing the Avon River. Took uber to Airport cost just $40
We even saw the rare phenomenon Aurora Australis in his place!!! Such a remarkable.experience!

posizione ed atmosfera della casa un po' retro' ; propietario gentile
pulizia lascia un po' a desiderare
3.1
Es gab Parkmöglichkeit
Die Einrichtung war alt und abgewöhnt oder kam villeicht vom Sperrmüll. Im Bad lag schmutzige Wäsche und stand ein Eimer mit Schmutzwasser.. Die Bettdecke war fleckig. Die Küche war dreckig. Das Frühstück sollten wir uns zusammensuchen. Wir sind wieder abgereist. Der Wirt hatte erst einer.Stornierung zugestimmt, dann aber doch kassiert. Unter der angegebenen Telefonnummer war er dann nicht mehr erreichbar.

Super friendly staff, very comfortable room and everything you need will be there.

People were really nice and friendly and bedroom looked nice and clean and well made up.
The booking was for a delux room with private bathroom and kitchen. I cancelled the booking as the bathroom was through a communal area and included a washing machine being used by others. Kitchen was also communal. None of this was as expected from how the room was described.

It was a nice stay and if your comfortable to live very close together with the owner of the B&B it was totally fine to stay there. There was lots of stuff available for breakfast and to cool wich was nice.

The owner withdrew the confirmation of our booking with less than 24 h notice despite the fact that he had confirmed it a week prior to that date and we had paid the full amount for the 3 day stay. He then failed to confirm with booking.com that we were due a refund despite our repeated requests that he should do this. We eventually got our money back from Booking.com after they acknowledged that the owner had withdrawn the offer for accommodation after confirmation that it was available.

The bedroom, though small, was comfortable. The Wifi was the best of all the places we stayed in our weeks in New Zealand. Most of the facilities were clean with one notable exception. The price would have been of more value had we gotten the room we reserved.
We were informed, just hours before our arrival, that someone staying in the separate room (with it's own bathroom) had renewed their stay for a MONTH and we were "bumped" to a room in the main house. Doors and windows to the outside were open with heavy duty wires running through all about - and it was quite chilly outside. For "the breakfast", we were told to find what we could in the cupboards - but, clearly there were other people living there and we had no idea what was "theirs" versus what was "public". Much of the confusion could be as a result of the proprietor having been sick and we didn't see him until just before we left in the morning. While most of the place was clean, in the bathroom, there were dirty towels on the floor and we were not about to use the shower in its condition. For a shared bathroom, there were far too many bottles of "other people's stuff" to know what we should have used, as toiletries were advertised as included. In addition, we still paid the same price for the smaller room with the shared bathroom compared to the separate room we'd booked.

Piss poor hosts. They canceled my booking in favour of a longer term stay at short notice and no other accommodation available in Christchurch so had to stay in other area 100 km south which inconvenienced me no end
As above

My booking got cancelled on the day of check-in by text because of some construction. Something that was easily to predict by the owner, but he decided to wait untill the last moment to inform me of that.
My messages to cancel the booking and get a refund are being ignored till this day.
Worst service I've encountered in NZ so far.
3.1
Comfortable bedroom, enough space for two, has everything I need.
Old kitchen and many expired food
3.1
The host was warm and welcoming and we had nice chats about the city and life in general. About 30 min walk to city centre which was fine for us. Just along the road to the left when you leave the property. There is another way to walk but felt less save.
There was some noise from nearby road construction work in the evening and from builder next door in the morning, but they might have finished by now.

The BNB cancelled in the afternoon of arrival. I had been driving so only opened up my email on arrival, to show the booking
The yard was a mess knee high weeds . Didn't go inside. The flat at back had junk on the deck. This is terrible accommodation. It should not be on your books as it sets a bad example. It had a vibe of a tinnie house

everything was excellent thank you GLEN our host

reasonably priced, comfortable and friendly, short bus trip to town

The advertised images were looking great. Unfortunately we couldn't check out if there even IS anything that is great.
The owner cancelled on us a few hours before our check in messaging us that we couldn't stay there because another person wanted to stay two more days. Since then the owner didn't reply to us anymore and we didn't receive our money back. Now we have read that we aren't the first with this problem. And I bet we won't be the last, so better don't book there!

They cancelled my booking about 24 hours before I was due to go in saying that a private guest wanted to stay one more .night. I have still not received a refund one week later! I am somewhat less than impressed!!
3.1
We had a wonderful stay here! The host was very nice and friendly. Our room was comfortable, we slept really well. A generous complimentary breakfast too! We really enjoyed our stay here, Thankyou :)
Nothing to dislike at all!

Absolutely nothing
Don't be fooled by this conman, took our money then double booked the 1st night. Checked in for the 2nd night, when we got back, there were another couple in our bed!! He had removed our belongings and put them in his smoke filled room. Have been trying to get our money back for 4 weeks now.
Place is filthy dirty, smells of cigarette smoke, and totally should be avoided at all costs.
Also booking.com did not help to get our money back, seriously considering if I will ever book thru them again
