Booked incorrectly as single beds, but upgraded & amended on site, excellent service.
Towels available but not face cloth’s? Also the pedestal basin with no where to put anything you need.
Awesomely close to everything.

I don't know if the hostel has karaoke facilities or if they were singing in another room, but the soundproofing was poor and I slept late.

Walking distance to everything in Queenstown, huge kitchen and great entertainment area with a fireplace, couches, and a pool table. Water pressure in the showers was great and instantly hot water. Staff were lovely and always at the desk. Will be staying again!

I was impressed with how clean quiet and high tech this hostel was. I was even able to rent a towel and do many things from the app they use for all guests. It is right in the middle of everything. Great location. Staffed 24/7 made me feel safer than the ones who don't have someone watching the door at night. Would love to return to this one someday!

It was clean enough for Backpackers, and staff were kind.
But there were many things in the fridge. So I couldn’t use it. And because of the neighbors (bar or restaurants), it was noisy until midnight. So I won’t recommend if you are sensitive to noise.
Anyway It was good for me.
