Best hostel ever that I’ve stayed

Perfect stay!

One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in! The bathrooms are so cute, with blue tiles on the walls and copper pipes that make it look antique. Lots of privacy with curtains at your own bed, your own reading light and outlets. The hostel workers are fantastic. They host daily activities or meals. The night I stayed they made a full dinner for everyone. I would absolutely come back to this hostel

This was one of the nicer hostels I've stayed in! Everything was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and nice with free coffee, tea, hot chocolate. There were several lounge areas and I especially liked the rooftop deck. Also, great location, just around the corner from Cuba St.

Hostel was awesome. Beds are good with curtains. Only thing is that your storage under the bed will be too small for your backbag.

Most of the time quiet hostel, good location and clean - Not enough seats in the kitchen area, housekeeping staff would enter the room without knocking, not the most social or welcoming hostel

男女混合10人部屋に４泊宿泊。オークランドで泊まっていたホステルと比べると、土地柄なのかとても静かだった。部屋は快適で、南京錠がかけられる収納も1人ずつベッド下にあり、カーテン、バスタオル付き。ペーパータオルがない代わりに共用のタオルが置いてある。シャンプー、コンディショナー、ボディソープが付いていたのは良かった。ヘアドライヤーもバスルームに３個置いてあって好きに使えた。人数に対してキッチンは狭く、冷蔵庫も小さいので、しっかり自炊したい人は少し使いづらいかも。同じエリアに食べるところもあるが、すごく狭くて、ごはん食べたいけど座れないということが少しあった。中には自分の階まで運んで食べてる人もいたが、3階とかだと大変で面倒なので自炊せず外食していた。各階に３、４人座れるソファとテレビ、本が置いてあって、ワインを飲みながらくつろいだりしている人もいた。 日本人としては慣れていないので、最初はシャワーが使いづらかった。主に温度調節のしにくさ、水圧など。トイレが詰まりやすかった。流れない、流れていないことが多々あったので、３回くらいボタンを押したこともあるくらい。シャワーやトイレも２回目以降は慣れたので、快適だった。立地的には、駅方面を探索したい方には不便かもしれない。最後に、バスルームとトイレは個室だけど男女共用。
