Alpine Hotel
Hotel was in a strange location in a strip mall. Very clean once inside. Parking was a bit confusing to figure out. Close enough to airport. Kind of pricy.

LyLo Christchurch
Location was fine for proximity to the airport. Room was very small & smelt like feet, shower was dirty. No staff at reception, you do everything yourself when you check in. I don’t mind a basic room & wasn’t expecting anything special but overall I wouldn’t rate this place very highly at all.
