Apartment was great for 4. Thanks for the luggage storage while we did our hike. Double rooms were quite tight for 2 with suitcases. Strange layout but two shared kitchens and plenty of bathrooms

It states "Free parking" in my invoice, but the staff said we need to pay NZD15 for a night for parking. And the parking area is very tiny.

I was on the lower floor and every step a person makes on the floor above it feels like the celing is going to cave in. The walls are extremely thin. Everything in the room was nice and the room smelt nice. The bathrooms were as dirty/clean as the person that previously used them.

Unclean hostel, bathrooms were disgusting. Pee stained shower floor, pink mould in the sink, no soap. We alerted the staff to the fact there was no soap in any of the facilities and they shrugged and said “try another one then” Staff were unfriendly. Heater in the room didn’t work. Only good thing was the location.

It's obviously a budget option catering to backpackers and younger workers, but it's clean, friendly and central. There's a bit of demand on the shared bathrooms, but nothing you wouldn't expect from accommodation of this type. I would happily stay again.
