I stayed at this hostel for one night. The room smelt of smoke even though it was supposed to be nonsmoking. The bedsheets were threadbare, the kitchen was quite small and cramped and there was no carpark. Overall, not a great place to stay.

We stayed recently for one night at $90.00 . Room was clean and spacious enough and hotel is in a good location. However would be the noisest accommodation we have ever stayed at ! We did not get a wink of sleep ...people walking by screaming and others sitting outside drinking beer and talking all night. Then you have the... More

Stayed here for 2 nights, rooms were very clean and comfortable. the bar downstairs was great and they served a beautiful breakfast for a very reasonable cost. the location was great, right downtown and we could walk everywhere. Very Happy indead.

We stayed in a room in the hotel and really enjoyed our stay. For the price, the room was well appointed and included a fridge so that we could self-cater. The location of the hotel is great as it is just off the main strip and offers an easy walk to some of the main attractions, like Te Papa. There... More

this hotel is well situated looking a bit tired and has very small rooms, the beds are as old as the hotel itself, we had back ache for 4 days. they have good specials with meals eg,free bbq on a Friday night and $2 egg on toast every day

Although all of us had a sore back after sleeping on the pretty uncomfortable mattresses,the furniture was basically ok and we can´t complain. The staff was friendly and we were provided an opportunity... More

Stayed with my girlfriend in the hostel accommodation in November 2011. Staff friendly and helpful, nice mix of long-term and short-term residents, found the dorm, bathroom and kitchen all clean. Not full of people looking for a party, but not quiet either. Good price. Overall a great stay and highly recommended to other hostellers.

This is a city centre hotel with a nice old world look. The rooms are very nice and well cleaned, however they suffer from poor insulation to the bar downstairs. The late night bar and the locals on the street make for a poor nights sleep - but if your partying then it's ok. A little expensive for what it... More

I stayed in this hotel for the first 3 night during RWC 2011. The room smells, was never made, the bed and pillows are not even fit for a hostel and the pub made a noise until 4am.
