This hostel is in a great location for exploring Auckland, less than 10 minutes to the sky tower, Queens Street and the K-Road. Free breakfast and wifi included. The kitchen and bathroom facilities were great but the dorm rooms were cramped and so so hot! I stayed in an 8 bed dorm and there seemed to be a lot of... More

The hostel was really easy to find and in a good location, only 10 minute walk from Sky Tower. It was really clean and very well organised, especially in the kitchen. The bathroom facilities were almost hotel standard as well. We only had a few niggles really. The hostel charge you for everything, I mean every little thing, but that's... More

We've stayed twice in this place and really liked it. Everything was clean and new, they only opened somewhere late 2011. The matresses were all new and comfortable and it's probably the cheapest place to stay in Auckland ($19 for a 12-bed dorm). They have nice lounge area, a cinema room and a well-equipped kitchen which was always neat. Only... More
