Pleasant, clean and comfortable. Restaurant food is tasty!
Pros:

The staff were friendly and the unit was clean - a little cold, but comfortable. The restaurant food-curry was nice.!

Cons:

I think it was a very cold weekend when we stayed, there were heaters, but going to the bathroom for instance was very chilly!

Christchurch Holiday
Pros:

It was good value for money. Clean and close to amenities.

Cons:

Like other reviews, the bed is taking up half the doorway and you have to walk around it to get in. We found the bed not that comfortable.
