Great spot to stay a couple nights on a budget. Walking distance to everthing. The only thing that wasn't great was that there is no AC, so it was very hot trying to sleep.

Cute hostel. Towels not included but otherwise excellent. Very convenient to ferry and parking just outside. However it was $15 NZD per night and not $10 as the listing suggests.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I had a twin room with en suite which was fine for the few nights I stayed. I wasn't really given much detail about the facilities when I checked in other than the common room. To be honest, there seemed to be some massive group of, possibly french, children taking over the downstairs area every time I seemed to be going in or out so I could not get near the facilities in there. The other annoying and disappointing thing was that my room seemed to be in a corrider where this group was staying. I understand quiet hours are from 10pm, but the yelling, screaming, slamming of doors, trying my door on multiple occasions and indeed, falling into my room as they were leaning on my door while I was trying to exit, from about 8pm to 10pm and from 7am was really unacceptable. I attempted to speak to the adults with the group however, other than the odd 'sssh' every so often, I really don't think they cared. If you are getting a room with private facilities ask if you can be situated away from any groups.

The place and kitchen was cleaned regularly. The rooms were small but had enough storage for luggage. I really liked that the beds had curtains, it helped make it feel less hostel like. The game room was often empty, guess that is a positive or a negative depending on what you are looking for. Over would definitely book and stay again.

Crampt 6 person room with no ventilation-ie no fan or ac Very loud doors that are prone to slamming leading to disturbed nights. Lethargic unenthusiastic reception staff. Baggage room is far from the reception desk, so although you have to borrow a fob to getin, the reception cant even see the room to ensure its security. I found the door wide open. Anyone could habe helped themselves to the bags inside without the reception knowing. Toilet and shower facolities are adequate, but wouldnt be classed as nice
