We've stayed there in February, we had an amazing time there. The property is huge and you have a lot of activities to do : paintball, flying fox, watching tv and movies in the secret room, relaxing in the spa pool, playing pool or enjoying a few beers by the fire place. The owners are great and they'll help you... More

Owner MIA, other staff highly unfriendly and unco-operative, only interested in making sure they had a drink in their hands, bathrooms not cleaned on the Saturday or Sunday, terrible water pressure, room had a musty smell, very thin walls so we could hear everything going on next door as well as the trains. Definitely not what was expected. We won't... More

This accomodation (double ensuite) offered probably the highest value/cost ratio of all hostels we stayed during our 1-month NZ-trip. We really regretted that our schedule didn´t allowed us to stay for more than two nights.

DO NOT expect locks on your doors to keep your fancy jewelery and underwear safe,... More

We had a great time staying here! Had all the right facilities as well as things you wouldn't expect to be included for such a low cost. Beds and kitchen were perfectly fine, and there was also Sky television, a spa, drying room, paintball and an area to skate! Ideal!

On initial inspection, the backpacker's was scruffy and pretty basic but not too bad. However, when we returned to our twin room that night, we found there was no way of locking our bedroom door from the inside (only from the outside), in addition to which, none of the entrances to the lodge were locked/lockable. When we pointed this out... More

Mice in our room during the night, no toilet paper in woman's toilet, limited cooking facilities and extremely rude staff. Very disappointing.

Unfortunately we were fooled by the website. We booked a double ensuite room for 2 nights. When we arrived we were told there was a room but no key available - not a good start. Despite the website's claims that the heating system was second to none and there were ample hot showers we had a drafty room without any... More
