Very quiet, large room. Comfy bed, especially the sheets. Location is great, but parking is tight; entrance was hard to find. Front desk was extremely helpful - gave me a clog to clean my windshield; recommended Moeraki boulders en route to Christchurch. They are amazing. Thanks so much.

From the street to inside the place is well laid out. Staff accommodated our baggage storage well before check in. Our rooms were also very comfortable, ultra clean and homely feel. Grateful for the upgrade. Great central location. Black out curtains and a quiet safe space. Thank you for looking after us so well. We look forward to returning to the beautiful restored new york style Chamberson.
