A hostel I would only recommend for short convenient stays. It is located in one of the busiest streets of the city, so expect difficult parking and loud music at night. Bed are comfortable and you have small lockers that are not bug enough for a cabin sized luggage. Common areas are non existant and the kitchen is not designed to accommodate more than a couple of people at the same time. Cleanliness is relative but depends on hosts respecting the place more than staff I guess.

worst hostel I stayed at in nz. Had to argue to get the aircon turned on, mould in the toilets, tiny kitchen and felt like a prison. Not at all as advertised and left after 1 night of a 4 night stay

Stayed one night, staff was lovely and check in was smooth - but didn't realise it was in a basement with no windows and under a nightclub so it was pretty noisy and a bit of a dank smell in the room as a result. They do give out free earplugs though!
