The major plus points for this hotel are the very friendly staff on the front desk and the fact you get free unlimited wifi for your stay!! The rooms are an OK size for the amount of people in there but the kitchen area is pretty tiny and grubby with not many functioning jobs or utensils. Showers and bathrooms were... More

If you're TOO picky about super clean bathrooms (which only REALLY expensive hostels have), or having a super silent chamber to rest your soul, you might not be... More

Great hostel with it's own charm and character. It can be a little nosy with the bars near by but its hospitality and friendly staff make up for it. I definitely recommend it to anyone wanting cheap accommodation in Auckland.
