"Affordable international hostel in Central Wellington"

8.0

It is downtown. A short walk to various tourist destinations. It is also close to restaurants and supermarkets.

I hit my head on the corner of the shelves as I was turning after entering the room. They could be placed higher or lower on the walls. I found the doors heavy.

"Great hostel in central Wellington."

9.0

Awesome hostel in central Wellington. Loads of social areas, but is a quieter hostel in nature. Staff were very accommodating, particularly over a last minute room change. Very clean bathrooms for a hostel.

Parking was a bit of a pain, as expected in central wellington. Could have done with a bit more information on it, and if you arrive more than a couple of hours before 6pm (when free parking kicks in) you can’t park outside the hostel (time limit of 2 hours).

"Can’t beat it for the price"

10.0

This hostel was in a great location. The price was extremely reasonable and for the price I think it was a great deal. I only stayed here one night because I was caught in a storm in Wellington and I don’t think you can complain about a hostel when the price is low.

The kitchen seem to be a bit dirty, but I did not use it so this is just from observation and they were actively asking for people to apply as cleaners so maybe this will be better in the future.

Location and ensuite bathroom

Kitchen was really messy and dirty at times, fridges full and a bit smelly. Potentially not enough fridges for guests
