Both of us stayed here in a double en suite Jan 2012 and have only gotton around to writing my diary!We travelled here from Te Anau following Doubtfull sound cruise.

Loads of room in the kitchen & sitting room for everyone, it is only 20 mins via bus from Queenstown but without the noise & crowd & price. The bus runs every hour into Queesnstown via the most scenic road. Local... More

We booked this place based on their website and didn't realise that this was a backpackers until we turned up. We arrived and didn't know what we had to do?

We stayed in on of the studios and had to keep the bathrom window closed as there was an awful odour coming in from outside think there may have been a septic tank nearby. Also we could hear everything from the studio next door the walls are paper thin.

This was a great find. The rooms are clean, bathroom was incredibly clean for shared usage, and the owner was really friendly. We found this to be a great escape after spending a night in Queenstown. Would highly recommend to others!
