The place is clean and the kitchen is nice, but its far out of town and expensive for a hostel dorm. You get 50MB of free wifi each day, but you have to ask the desk to reset the modem every hour.
This hostel is really good and on walking distance of the 'former' city centre. The hostel is made up of several cabins with all their own facilities (kitchen, bathroom and toilets) so never to crowdy. The staff is really helpful and friendly. Only minus were the shortage of energy points in the dorms, but the hostel manager stated they were working on that issue :-)..

Top notch hostel! Squeaky clean, excellent facilities. Our en suite room was perfect and the staff couldn't do more to help. Probably the best hostel we have stayed in on our travels!

Thought the hostel was average. Receptionist from Texas was nice, but the other girl seemed stand offish and unfriendly. The hostel was nice, but Christchurch as a city has some major work ahead of it. I would not recommend going here until not only the buildings, but the residents morale is repaired.

Nice, surprisingly big hostel with great facilities built between the various buildings. Kitchens were really well kept and dorms comfy.

Overall a very good hostel. The staff were friendly and helpful. I loved the fact that there was a spa and sauna! :) The property was well looked after - nicely renovated and had a homely feel. Plenty of communal space which made it easy to get to know fellow backpackers.

Overrated. $35 for a 7 bed dorm in a hostel that is VERY far from anything of note - they need to review pricing policy. Wifi was awful and very expensive. **NO PLUGS in a 7 person dorm and all of the top bunks had short mattresses (suitable for people no more than 170cm tall)** By NZ standards this place is for showers and kitchen etc BUT it's way overpriced. They have a spa and sauna sure, but their gimics so long as your dorm room has no plugs and short beds. Won't return here, ever.
