Great location, excellent price for a private room, owner was very chatty, friendly and helpful. Literally five minutes walk from the ferry terminal and across the road from the train station. The only downside was that I had to check out earlier than the stated time (which they told me about when I arrived) due to something needing to be done to the rooms, and as someone who hates mornings this wasn't good. But the owner was very apologetic.

The personel was absolutely amazing. Shaera, the owner of the place, is such a huge source of positivity. At first it caught me by surprise and I was a bit alienated by the way she treated me and everyone else. It even felt for a bit like she was taking the piss or having a laugh over our backs. But later on I really saw that she was sincere and just naturally this amazing. She and the rest of her staff gave me a complete new insight of how a hostel can be. Not just a place to sleep at night, but a place you can call home, meet awesome people and just have an absolutely amazing time. Free breakfast was great and the dessert every night was made with love by many of their wonderful staff. If you are looking for a place to recharge and have a good time. A place where you can feel wanted and not just like another customer who's money they take. Then this is the place for you. Atlantis is great!! The only downside were the computers and the price of wifi by their third party provider. Computers outdated. Wifi too expensive.

Freundliche, lustige "Herbergsmutter" und zwei nette Katzen. Fruehstuck inklusive und es gibt Preise fuer Alleinreisende, was in Neuseeland sehr unueblich ist. Insofern war es ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhaeltnis. Duschen und Toiletten sind ein Stueck von den Zimmern weg. Viele Zimmer haben keine Fenster, dafuer ein Oberlicht, durch das das Nachtlicht aus dem Flur durchscheint - Schlafmaske mitnehmen!
