INTREPID Bed and Breakfast Christchurch

Glen canceled my one day booking out of the four days just in an hour of my arrival with the reason that his previous guest extended his stay without any solution . Did not reply to my email sent three days prior to my departure as well.I could not find accommodation due to long weekend . On top , he yelled on me and slammed the door threatening to ruin my stay for the next four days if I complained.Very filthy property with awful stench and the owner Glen looked to be under the influence of alcohol. Requested him to cancel my entire booking as it was very unsafe after this drama but denied and not getting any refund. Not a bit safe for anyone to stay especially females traveling alone. Would not recommend anyone to stay at this property. Very dishonest .Zero star rating.

I am travelling alone and had high expectations to stay at this B&B and was eager to stay there, as I thought it would be a highlight of my stay in Christchurch. Unfortunately, I was put in a very stressful situation, because Glen, the owner, cancelled my two-day stay on the morning of my arrival with the following message:Good Morning Mariana DavidThis is a VERY IMPORTANT message concerning the accommodation reservation you made on March 1st 2023 via the Booking Com website

Great stay, we spent 3 nights there. Peaceful, clean, warm. Generous, and comfortable. Glen is kind, and really helpful. Oh and bed was amazing! Recommended.

Super friendly host and manager!!!Room was big and clean. And the location is just perfect.

Called for room availability on the day of arrival and luckily got a room with one double bed and one single bed for our stay. Shared house with landlord and other long-term guests.Glen was nice. The accommodation cost paid directly to him was much lower than booking on the other websites. No extra cost for my kids aged 2y and 4y. He even accepted payment in AUD which helped us a lot.Oven, Kitchenetten, dishwashers are available. No extra charge for washing machine& dryer usage. He offered free food such as onions, apples, eggs, bananas and garlics. Breakfast cooked by ourselves and options are either flakes with milk or toasts with jams.Location is good, driving distance is 30mins from the airport and free parking is possible on site.We met the clean lady on the day of checkout. So the cleanliness is quiet ok.對長途旅行的自駕者而言，這是一個很不錯的補給站。

The stay was wonderful, almost felt like a second home because of the comfortable atmosphere (not to mention the adorable cat ^^). Breakfast was provided, good heaters, fresh towels, not too noisy, what else could you ask for? Glen is one of the most nicest owners I've yet to meet for a while. 5/5

Booking cancelled last minute, due to private guest. If your place is so exclusive, please don't put it on third party to help you manage your booking. Thanks to the cancellation my plans and everything got ruined. Thank you for being such wonderful as host.

Do not book here. Worst experience with an accomodation ever! No answer to our questions beforehand and then out of the blue cancelled on us on the day of arrival through a vague and dishonest message. Then it took him 3 days to accept the request of cancellation-with-refund. Not sure if dishonest/bad person or just not up to running an accomodation. Either way, stay away

Disgusting place. Cook your own breakfast which was toast, eggs, and/or baked beans. No milk for tea or coffee, the owner is up at 2am doing laundry etc. Not a B & B in my books. Bedrooms are cramped, and the bedding is smelly and old. Not an experience I want anyone to share.

We booked 2 rooms for 4 people supposed to check in on the 11th Feb for 4 nights.We were told on arrival by the dishonest owner that the rooms were not available anymore as his previous guests extended their stay due to sickness blahh blahh…The whole Christchurch was booked out that day due to several events. We spent 3 hours looking for alternative and luckily found a $450 studio with two beds. It was expensive but better than sleeping on the street.We googled and found that he did this a lot of time.He basically used the same tactic to have his place oversold, just to maximizing his profit.It was an expensive lesson for us!!DO NOT BOOK HERE if you don’t want any trouble!!
