There was a mouse/mice in our room, we then had to move to another room in a separate building which had no hot water the following morning. Granted we got a refund for our stay, but I will not be staying there again!

Was not able to get much sleep as the lights from the admin block shone into our room all night. All else was perfect; kitchen facilities spotless and well equipped.

The hostel is Ok. But they had announced in Hostelsworldwide.com that they have FREE internet: bullshit! You have to pay for it. Second problem: bathrooms not always too cleans. There are many beds for few baths. The room was ok, clean and silent.

Good place to stay though if given a choice between a smaller/more personalized backpacker, I would go for the latter. Great city central (close to i-Site and restaurants) but supermarkets are located at the other end of town.

Extremely clean, well organised and with one of the best kitchen facilities we have ever come across. The TV room could be improved, but that's about it.

Pretty good hostel. But needs individual reading lights in the dorms. Kitchen was good, clean and well equipped.

Well organized, clean hostel in the small town of Rotorua. As one of the flagship YHA's in NZ...would definitely stay again!

Stayed in a somewhat warm 3-bed room. Common area was bright, clean, and easy to use. Kitchen was open and easy to use. Would definitely stay there again.

Great Hostel! Great beds, great kitchen! Perfect for a longer stay to relax, do your laundry, check out the nice area. Staff is very friendly and help you to find exciting tours and activities (there is a lot to explore!). I highly recommend this hostel to everyone! It's worth every dollar! I will come back :-)
