Great hostel. Came back again after staying here already for a month back in june. It's a quiet hostel, not many travelers. I just love the location as it's literally a 3 min walk to the beach where you can wind down, watch surfers or go for a run. All the necessary shops are in walking distance. There is free parking. The bathrooms are renovated so clean hot showers. The kitchen has a great view of the street and mountains. Some people might think New Brighton is dead but I think it's definitely up and coming!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Really impressed with this hostel! I was upgraded from an 8-bed dorm to a 2-bed dorm, which was small but great to have fewer people. Comfy beds with curtains, individual lights, and chargers by the bed, plus lockers for luggage. They have two kitchens which are well equipped and have everything you need, plus a cozy lounge. Great location for exploring the city, would definitely stay here again! :)
