I hope i can put 0 star. Loud music from the bar til 12:00, but it wasn't end yet. Street car racing is going to start at 1:00 am. After the car racing(maybe after 3:00am),drunk ppl is the time to come back. So, i can hear some doors keep opening and closing. When the above things are finished, congratulations is the time to checkout.

Passing through on my way to Rakiura. Ange at the front desk was lovely! Very friendly! Rooms, beds, bathrooms, kitchen were fresh and clean. Short walk to Gardens, Cafes and Supermarket. Bus dropped off and picked up right outside hostel. Would definitely recommend. Checking in I was told that the homeless liked to hang about in the garden next door, (I highly appreciated the transparency) but turns out I never saw anyone behaving strange or dangerous in anyway.

Underwhelming and unwelcoming hostel. Stayed for two nights and the kitchen area and bathrooms were not cleaned during that time. Our room wasn't very clean either. Loud music until late from downstairs. I'd give the cafe downstairs a much more positive review (as others here have done) but the hostel is a one star experience. Avoid.

Nice place to stay, reasonable rates for the rooms, especially if you want a room to yourself. Bathrooms are a little small, not many showers and toilets and a little run down but everything looks clean. Laundry is nice, and the kitchen and tv rooms are well stocked. Happy to stay here again.

It says on the information by the door for others staying here and using the lounge, to be considerate of other guests, well that never happened, doors being slammed. Found others staying here, especially on the 2nd floor to be really noisy. I would never recommend the backpackers.

Lovely atmosphere. Staff are very nice and welcoming. We ordered a pizza (which was divine, by the way) and didn't even need to wait that long for it to be served. Food is a 10/10. Lots of seating options. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area.

You get what you pay for, comfortable bed but no parking on site or too closeby. Fine for a night or two.

Nasty as hell. Sheets all grotty. The directions on the halls all confusing as hell. Parking situation is a mess. The booking system which i organized from hostelworld was booked for the day before which i dont know how that happened. I understand its budget but i at least expect clean sheets. Id give this hole 1 star but thats a disservice to the staff that was handling the bar ionand also managing the reception. Maybe maintain the hostel in a proper way or just close it. Jesus help you.
