Very good hostel, although quite large so lacks the charm of smaller places. Facilies were always very clean and the rooms were comfortable. The staff were always very helpful.

This is a long-time palce. They're pros here. There's character, but it cnnot help but be a large-scale "corporate" hostel. "Worldwide" is funkier and much smaller, but a few minutes walk from things. "Base" is large, too, but has a little more community atmosphere, with same locale.

When travelling on my own I like the hostel environment. I feel safer and more included despite being in the oldest age bracket! I have to come to Wellington for weekend workshops occasionally and this is my favourite place to stay especially if on my own.

Fab place, clean and comfortable in a great location with plenty of amenities. As with many YHA places though very limited shower and bathroom facilities.

Internet was really expensive, $6/hr, and it was very slow. you'd spend 1/3 of your time waiting for pages to load.

All was good, except when I went for a shower in the evening. There was no hot water. Also, when staff were informed the next morning they made no apologies.
