Loved our stay here! Private room was spacious and TV was a really nice addition! Super close to the airport, only an 7 minute walk! Easy bus into the city centre but not really an option to walk into the city.

2 night stay in Christchurch

For a hostel is tremendous value. Right near the airport and supermarkets, near bus stoo for trips into thr city. Best short term stay for early airport flights. Pods itself is standard hostel fare, not much room but it does have a privacy curtain which is good. Showers can get wet on the floor, so bring flip flops and multiple towels

Funky but comfortable pods

The check-in process was easy, only problem was, it couldn't find my reservation. The concept and overall condition of the hostel was very nice, conveniently located within walking distance to shops, restaurants and the airport. My particular room had a very funky smell, not very pleasant and there was nothing the staff could do.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was clean, the beds had individual privacy curtains, the amenities were more than adequate. There is nothing more you could reasonably expect out of a hostel than what they already have, except maybe air conditioning in the bedrooms and free off-street parking. If you don’t want to pay $15/day for parking in the parking lot, there is plenty of free on-street parking nearby, but be prepared to walk up to 1km during peak busy days.
