Dirty, noisy, rude...will I go on.!! We made the mistake of staying here for 1 night.(thank God wasn't longer) We booked a double room which was outside beside the smoking area. We went out that night, came back around 2.30am. Woke up at 4 with the noise outside, not only from other guests but from the Owner/receptionist-how professional!!!! We found... More

I booked this hostel in February 2011 for 4 nights commencing the 7th October for three people. One of the reasons I booked was the flexibility of the cancellation policy which was "one night’s accommodation if cancelled within 48 hours of arrival or no show" This policy was on their website (bookings), their brochure and also on my booking voucher....

We arrived late in the evening and the reception was still open, We found this one of the most expensive hostels in our road trip around NZ, we paid 27pp pn (the rest were around 23). The receptionist was really friendly and helpful, and after a quick visit around the city and no vacancy in other hostels, We decided to... More

I stayed here for two nights and then left as it was such a nasty place to stay! it was messy, dirty, and so noisy! The bathrooms didnt have hot water at times, and the staff were super unfriendly and not helpful at all. The rooms were basic but really dirty and they all have a very strange smell! Go... More

This hostel was probably one of the dirtiest I stayed in ! I stayed in a dorm there which was pretty basic but fit with the price. On arrival i had to open the window because of the smell. The ladies were absolutely horrible and dirty at its best !!! Towels were all over the floor (due to flooding when... More

We stayed in a double room here, and the room & bed were actually quite good. They also provided toast, spreads, cereal & milk in the morning for free, as well as two computers with free internet access (though you needed to wait in line for a while, and there's no wifi). The shared facilities, however, mainly the kitchen &... More

This accomodation is cheap and scungey. The toilets and showers are dirty. It is a party house; noisy at night with drunk people drinking on the veranda, slamming doors which make the room and beds reverberate; yelling; sheets and duvet thin and washed out; rooms so small it is difficult to move about – we were in a three bed...
