total bachelor pad, the worst hostel i\'ve stayed in new zealand, maybe ever. wouldn\'t recommend it to anyone who likes a clean floor, toilet paper in the bathrooms, and quiet enough to sleep, at all.total bachelor pad, the worst hostel i\'ve stayed in new zealand, maybe ever. wouldn\'t recommend it to anyone who likes a clean floor, toilet paper in the bathrooms, and quiet enough to sleep, at all....Close

I think there are quite a number of long term residents here and the place is kind of messy and not very friendly unless you 'live' there.I think there are quite a number of long term residents here and the place is kind of messy and not very friendly unless you 'live' there....Close

The bedroom was alright (though loud), but that's the only thing that was even average about this place. What a dump! The place was filthy, overcrowded and unfriendly. We booked a 4 bed and were put in a 6 bed dorm with only a "Too bad" from the staff. The kitchen is tiny and there's only one table, so no room to eat. The bathrooms were revolting. I wouldn't even recommend this one to someone I disliked!The bedroom was alright (though loud), but that's the only thing that was even average about this place. What a dump!
