Fodor's "This old country house is actually three colorful, restored villas with polished wooden floors and handmade, native-wood furniture... It's a 15-minute walk from town but you can take the bus."
Rough Guide "One of Christchurch’s most peaceful hostels, fashioned from a couple of wood-floored villas with bold decor and spacious dorms. A 15min walk east of the Square."
