Was somehow far

Safe. People. Cleanliness.

Everything was good

Stayed in May 2025

Location could have been better, a long walk down Queen St to the city centre.

A nice place to stay, bathrooms and kitchen were clean.

Stayed in May 2025

Property is fine, feels like part of a parking garage. Building is not especially warm, welcoming or aesthetically pleasing and private rooms are very basic, but you get what you pay for.

Stayed in April 2025

Unfortunately, the cleanliness and tidiness habits of some guests mean that the small kitchen area doesn't stay clean for long, and the bedroom remains untidy.

The tranquility of the place and the respect for quiet hours, even though the hostel isn't large and many people were staying there. The bed was comfortable and you have the right to a locker, the bathrooms and showers were clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful.

Basic bedding but comfortable enough

Organization and clean common areas

Stayed in March 2025

The main disadvantage is the lack of windows in the rooms, which causes problems with ventilation. Unfortunately, not all guests follow the rules of hygiene, which leads to an unpleasant smell.

The hostel has generally good quality accommodation at an affordable price. The kitchen is conveniently equipped, although sometimes it is difficult to find a free place. In general, the hostel is suitable for a short budget stay, but it is important to be prepared for these nuances.

Bed frames make a lot of noise.

Patient and willing staff. Nice and clean common areas. Really nice lighting solution for rooms without windows. Location. Price.

Apparently some rooms didn't have windows. I luckily did, but I'm not sure we could even op them. Fresh air would be nice! In the mornings they would open all rooms at the same time and leave the doors open for hours. If you have valuable things, don't leave them around! Lockers were a bit on the small side for you to add your valuable items.

Everything was really clean and well taken care of. It was not messy or anything, most of the time, and the cleaner came in many times a day. This was great! Small hostel, so it is easy to meet new people, feel safe and it makes it probably easy not to get messy. It was also not too too hot in the rooms most of the times and the personnel asked us whether they needed to increase the AC for us, which was great!

The beds squeak so much.

Good spaces. Open and clean. Lots of space in the kitchen and the bathrooms were always clean

Stayed in November 2024

sadly no curtains on the bed which means less privacy. for me in a woman bedroom totally fine tho

The hostel was easy to find, the bed comfortable and all in all clean. nice kitchen area with a lot of space. Walking distance to the harbour was about 20 minutes and the bus station was up the street

It was very clean, the personnal was helpful and People were nice

Stayed in October 2024

the beds are squeaky so it's better to sleep with earplugs, and not all of the rooms have windows so the air can be a bit stuffy.

it's a small hostel, so it's great for meeting new people. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need and the bathroom was clean.

Stayed in October 2024

Full kitchen of people. No windows in room

Cheap, location, clean, kitchen staff

Stayed in October 2024

As per the other reviews, the kitchen is a little small and has a million signs stating the rules. Not sure if it has parking, although there is a Wilson's Parking Space and street nearby. These aren't really issues though, just things to note - overall would still really recommend this place! :)

Great hostel with lots of awesome people travelling from overseas, the vibe here was so nice and friendly! The hostel itself is clean, centrally located and very secure. Would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Auckland/NZ especially solo travellers or groups.

Stayed in September 2024

The common areas get very cold, especially in the evening.

Friendly staff, good location, kind long term guests.

Nothing

Clean Bathroom and other areas, Best Location, cooperative staff

Stayed in May 2024

Probably the lights in the bedrooms in the morning switching on by themselves.

The common areas (bathrooms, kitchen, leaving room) were always clean. The kitchen is well equipped, if you like to cook it's nice !

Stayed in March 2024

Way too many rules put up around the place, makes the common areas feel less welcoming and enjoyable. Owner is very organised but not the friendliest

Very clean and well organised property with decent location

Stayed in February 2024

I didn't like the beds themselves, too hard for me. Had a stiff body during my whole stay. The stair access is a minus. The front door is heavy and tends to slam shut if you let go. Other than that I can't think of anything.

Clean rooms and bathrooms, clean kitchen too. The kitchen was extremely well outfitted, and included a rice cooker, an air fryer, a microwave, a baking oven, four hot plates, two kettles, many fridges and pantries, and a lot of utensils. There is also a disability friendly bathroom, however the hostel itself is only accessible via stairs, so if you use a wheel chair you can't realistically stay here. The staff are friendly and helpful. There is a lounge with a large flat screen tv with netflix, and three comfy couches. Bath towels are available at reception for a $10 deposit which you'll receive back upon return of the towel. There is a coin laundry machine and a coin dryer which both take $3 to use. The bedrooms are cleaned daily, and are kept at a comfortable temperature, never too cold or too hot. There is a lim chour supermarket across the road, and a busy metropolitan street just past that with lots of restaurants and shops. Secure parking complexes are down the road. They also added bedside containers that hang off the side of the beds for you to put things in, like phones etc.
