The hostel is nice and relaxed, being slightly smaller than the larger ones in Auckland. The private room we had was quiet and basically furnished with a good WiFi connection. Although not in the centre of the city it has good access to the parnel train line and the neighbourhood is lovely. Very close to the Domain and Museum too. Be sure to check out the Bakery at the top of the street. But do shop before you get there - not much in close proximity.
I initially checked in for a week but on arrival, changed it to 1 night so I can at least see if I like it after a night there...I didn't even make it that far. I booked my own room and it was scruffy...some old newspapers wedged in cracks in the wall. I didn't wanna kick off over that so planned on just staying one night, then never coming back but then a smell of cigarette smoke got stronger as i lay in the room. I went to reception but they were gone?? And for a few hours it seemed. I couldn't get through on a phone so sent 2 emails stating that I cant stay because of the smell etc but I still have not got a reply. The place is horrible, avoid
Exceptional staff, always there for you. The ensuite double room we stayed in was glorious. Great location in pretty neighbourhood. Common area and kitchen are nice and clean so are all the other facilities.
This place is a dump. Not worth the price. Customer service terrible. Rooms dirty. Kitchen shuts at 10. No one around when we arrived and luckily another guest showed us where they keys were Reception shuts early but weirdly someone locks the kitchen at 10 pm. 2 members of staff we seen in the day were on their phones and couldn’t be bothered to help a guest with change for the washing machine. Do not stay here. For the price it’s a dump
I'm here on a working holiday Visa and this place has been incredible. Social kitchen, common area, close to bus stops and definitely not a party hostel. Lots of dairy's close by and countdown isnt too far either. Nice to see the dorms well taken care of. Lots of street parking as well if you have a van.
