We had a queen private room Pros: - Fast and easy check-in - Amazing location, right in the centre of town, walking distance to the waterfront and Fergburger Free breakfast (toast, cereal, juice, coffee) - View of mountains CONS: - Bed was very lumpy and uncomfortable, worst sleep in weeks - No electrical outlets in or near the bathroom -...

Stayed here as part of my stray tour with friends. Recpetion staff were ok, but the lift was broken when we first arrive and stray traveller stay on the top floor *thumbs down* but it was eventually fixed before we left. The room was a 6 bed dorm, relatively clean, with an ensuite shower and WC. There is a full... More

The staff have absolutely no people skills, they're insulting, rude, antagonistic and generally don't give a s**t!! Highly over priced for what you actually get and if you want to check out early having paid for the extra night they'll refuse you a refund! The kitchen is absolutely DISGUSTING AND FILTHY!!! They have a nightclub underneath all their accomodation WHICH... More

I travelled about New Zealand staying mostly in Base hostels, and I found that this one was of a very high quality. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, even at 6am. The reception is manned 24 hours a day, something which I find to be a very good thing! The rooms are the standard hostel fare, with 4 double... More

Stayed for 8 days and then gave up after no sleep, scalding hot showers and too much noise from nightclub underneath rooms plus big party groups. Great help and prices for booking daily activities. Sanctuary room beds quite comfy and super warm. More
