It is extreamly difficult to review a hostel when the staff loose your booking and the hostel is full. Originally I would say that this qualifies as a 0% rating, but since the staff was realy nice and drived us in their private car to a new hostel where they had booked a new room for us, I guess they...

We stayed here for one night before we took the Tranz scenic train to Greymouth. Nice hostel, clean rooms (we stayed in a double) but no fridge or tv or bedside lamp. Kitchen was nice and clean, everything you need to cook what you want and 2 sinks. Nice outside area with a few benches to read and eat etc.... More

A really good hostel. We stayed in a double room here for 3 nights, one night at a time on three different occasions. Given the circumstances in Christchurch, the staff really go out of their way to help you. More

I only stayed one night here, in a double room, but really enjoyed my stay here. The staff is extremely friendly and gave us a warm welcome at our arrival. Most important, the hostel is clean (bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen). As it’s not a huge backpacker, it’s got a friendly and family atmosphere. There’s a little garden where you can eat,... More

There were stains on the hallways carpets and one of the bed sheets for a new night had a stain on it (not a... More

Who created this place baron von i have no imaginnation. If you are only looking for... More

This place saved us when STA Travel messed up our flight to Fiji. They had well stocked book swap shelves, free internet and a long list of DVDs which you could take out and view in the TV room. We whiled away a wasted day watching the whole Lord of the Rings trilogy which was genius. The staff were lovely,... More
