Excellent location and affordable.
Pros:

Great location, excellent staff and a good kitchen for preparing meals. The room was very comfortable and the shared bathrooms are close to all the rooms. The concept and relationship to “The Kind Foundation” is a really great idea.

Cons:

The hotel is great, but I was disappointed with a few guests who didn’t clean up after themselves in the kitchen when the sign clearly asks you to do so. The staff work very hard here and I felt it was disrespectful. It’s not hard to wash a dish. There’s even a dishwasher!

除了开始寄存行李感觉有点不方便之外，其他都可以。
Pros:

员工素质普遍偏高，基本有问必答，地理位置优越，就在雅芳河边，房间有个外置阳台很方便可以洗晒。

Cons:

寄存行李方面可以进行改进，去的时候在基督城过渡了一晚，然后去凯库拉2晚，再回到基督城这个酒店，这期间本以为可把行李寄存在酒店，但被婉拒了，只能拖着行李箱到凯库拉。建议酒店以后可以在这个方面进行优化调整，方便游客出行。

Pros:

Really love the location. The botanic garden and Museum are just in front of it. Unfortunately we couldn't go into the Museum because it was being renovated. The Old School structure is just along the street from the hotel so it has a nice vibe. Plus the tram train is right next to it. very perfect location for tourists.

Cons:

The shared bathroom is not very clean. It takes a long time for the water to drain while you are taking a shower. Although someone cleans every morning, the shower area doesn't seem to be cleaned.

Exceptionally clean, enjoyed a fragrance free environment!
Pros:

Exceptionally Clean- Also I have asthma which is aggravated by chemicals used in fragrances and air fresheners and a majority of hotels use fragrance laundry detergent, etc. The entire time at Give I did not encounter any fragrance and had no issues with my asthma. I slept well and felt great unlike other establishments I stayed at during my trip. Thanks Give for using fragrance free products!

Cons:

Perfect stay.
