Small rooms as it is budget hotel. No Parking. Rude Staff
Cons:

Staff was very rude. And there is no free parking as mentioned in the property amenities. There are very less parking space and that too paid $32 per night. When we discussed this with the lady in reception she was very rude and denied to help.

Central affordable comfy stay in Christchurch
Pros:

central, friendly staff, large room, very clean. Certainly one of the better options in Christchurch. We will stay longer next time and definitely choose Ibis.

Noise from the street, which is busy until late at night. It did not stop us from having a good sleep.
