Stayed in one of the older rooms. Actually preferred being at the back of the facility as the rooms are quieter. Whilst expecting a fairly standard room I ended up with a wee 2 bdrm apartment and separate kitchen... excellent!

Actually I had to cancel my booking, when I rang I was told to ring through Expedia however the 10 numbers that I was given didn't match with the 11 numbers that was needed to cancel my booking and get a refund. I was told I could re-book except I will not be coming back to chch in the near future. Sorry but I felt cheated

Comment from Hotel Management

21 Mar. 2021 by John

Cancelled within Cancellation Period and wasn't Covid related. After advising of cancellation period, guest suggested they might come to town anyways, if they are paying for the room. We advised the guest that we have held the amount in credit for the guest to use in the future, outside of expedia's terms and conditions.

Very tired rooms and musty smell when I first opened room door. No ironing board and when I requested one they provided one with no cover.
