A well-maintained modern hostel in...

Liked: The location of the hostel was amazing, quite on the far end of Queen Street from Britomart, and relatively close to the K Road, where many bars and restaurants are located. Just close by, there were also some 24 hour minimarket and some restaurants. The room was clean and was cleaned regularly, the locker under the bed worked well, and the bed was very comfortable. The lounge and kitchen area were spacious, well-stocked and quite cozy. The staff were super helpful too!
Disliked: The 6-bed room was very small. There was barely any room to open my suitcase without taking basically 1/3 of the open space within the room. As my bed was also in the narrow corner end, it wasn't so easy to put my stuff in the underbed locker. Nevertheless, the place in general was quite comfortable and convenient, so unless you're staying there for too long, then it shouldn't be a problem.

Liked: Kitchen had good amenities
Disliked: So incredibly hot. I think it was because we were above the laundry. But it was unbearable.

Exceptional

Liked: Spacious kitchen and seating areas. Plenty of fridge and freezer space during busy and peak booking times
Disliked: Doors slammed when released before being fully closed.

Good for the price

Liked: I had a single room with private bathroom so I can’t say what it’s like in the other rooms but it was clean and the bed was comfortable. The communal area is nice and clean. Didn’t have any issues with the wifi. Lots of food options around but if you want to walk around just for warning it is hilly but there is public transportation close by. Staff are friendly and open to answering questions.
