Guest Reviews

• Karmvir (4/5): Not clean at all and outdated facilities. As well as nowhere safe to leave luggage -
• Neil (8/5): It was comfortable and the only problem was when someone else stayed - It was big and tidy really close to where we needed to be Didn’t have any sign in the front very confused to find
• Zhe （Amy） (7/5): Overall is good, location is good. - The living room is big. Room is very small and hot. Fan in the room is very dirty and full of dust. I have to clean it to make it work.
• Todd (1/5): Worst place I’ve ever stayed at - Not one positive thing this place is horrible extremely hot Extremely hot not venting the property lady who you deal with was super rude and did not offer any compensation, this place is a trap for the price there is way better places to stay
• Melina (8/5): Lovely place to stay and very clean - Clean and lovely decoration No extra sheets or towels, very basic kitchen items.
• Sonal (10/5): - The apartments were clean, close in proximity to the the downtown areas, had reasonably well equipped kitchen for 4 people and plenty of space for storage for lugguage aswell. The bathroom was clean and spacious as well. We had our cat with us on our stay so it was much appreciated that let us bring him along There's wasn't any negatives. The only one i could mention is that the skylights in the rooms will wake you up early with the sun rise as they don't have any covering. But I'm not sure that would be a negative necessarily

• Thomas (10/5): -
• Natalia (7/5): -
• Daniel (9/5): - Loved the layout, atmosphere, colours, furniture, bed and balcony Didn't get checkin details until late but fortunately cleaner wad cery helpful and let us in. Also would have been nice to have some bodywash in the shower
• Belén (10/5): -
• Ramona (8/5): great location, cute rooms, handy facilities. - cute room Dirty entry and stairs, too many door codes
• isobel (6/5): stay if you must - nice location only a short, pleasant walk to the shops or into town. free laundry machine was also a great bonus. grateful for the inclusion of a fan in room one as it got very hot at night for at least half of my stay, the front door leading directly off the public street and right into the living room of flat one was left completely unlocked. facilities also could have been a smidge cleaner and kitchen could have been better stocked with crockery and cooking and cleaning utensils. my four-bed dorm also felt cramped with only three lockers for four beds. also do not be deceived by the colourful, characterful photos of the apartments on the listing if you’re to be staying in flat one
• Juliette (5/5): - We couldn't open the window in the room, it was too hot
• Liem (7/5): -
• Joel (4/5): -
• Robyn (10/5): Fun apartment in a good location - Central location that was really handy, beautifully decorated apartment that was immaculately clean. There was a little bit of confusion about my booking, but that was dealt with brilliantly and quickly, and I ended up upgraded. Would definitely start again.

• Kaufmann (5/5): - Die Lage, die Gestaltung des Zimmers und dee Kontakt mit dem Personal Das Zimmer hatte kein Fenster, das sich öffnen ließ. Es verfügte lediglich über ein Dachfenster, das sehr weit oben war. Zudem kam der Geruch der Küche in das Zimmer, wenn gekocht wurde, trotz geschlossener Zimmertür. Zudem der Spannteppich im Zimmer.
• Risha (9/5): Loved it, everyone was nice and I appreciated it a lot! - So convenient and such nice people Nothing it was awesome!
• Staud (8/5): -
• Meng (10/5): Very good - Everything is good, will come back if needed one day :)
• Elizaga (10/5): Excelente - El espacio y el buen trato, un lugar muy tranquilo, ordenado y respetuoso. La persona que se encarga de mantener el orden y limpieza es excelente y trabajador.

• Fernando (10/5): -
• Sonam (8/5): - Well maintained, spacious and clean kitchen. Only 3 lockers in the 4 beds dorm room so I didn't have the locker to put my valuables in.
• Adrien (8/5): - Self check-in very convenient. Huge living room, but the rooms are really cramped, especially when shared with 3 guys who seem to live there rather than be tourists. Only 3 lockers for 4 beds in mine, all were taken and i couldn't store my things safely. No plugs next to the beds, no towels provided and no soap in the bathroom.
• Ellie (4/5): - Free off street parking at the back of the hostel. 15 min walk to the restaurant hub of Tauranga so reasonable location It didn’t feel particularly clean, none of the communal areas/kitchen/bathroom seemed like they were frequently cleaned. There were ants in the kitchen. Rooms really small and not enough lockers for the number of bed spaces or enough space really for everyone’s bags in the dorm room. Wouldn’t stay again
• Fernando (10/5): -
• Nicolas (10/5): Très bon hostel - La convivialité, l'espace commun, l'agencement, l'emplacement
• wang (4/5): -
• Amy (8/5): Would stay again and recomend to friends - The bathrooms were lovely and light and spacious. The free washing machine was a nice touch. Memphis was lovely as was the housekeeper philippe. Kitchen was well equipped, having a tv was nice. Everywhere very clean. Great location between town and oak n save supermarket. The washing line could have been a bit bigger maybe, or in a different location? The pictures make it look a lot more colour and lovely than it actually is although still very pleasant.
• Jo (8/5): -
• Kelly suzanne (10/5): Incredible apartment (and super cool decor!) - Booked on very very short notice, we were so happy our dog was allowed to stay with us too. The decor is SO COOL!! The beds were VERY VERY COMFORTABLE. All 5 of us slept very very well, nice bedding, great pillows etc. The space is really large and housed us all very well. We absolutely loved our stay and I highly recommend this place! The only thing I can think of is the hand soap on the bathroom sink was empty and had been filled up with water and there was no soap in the shower. There was also no complementary shampoo or conditioner which I suppose is ok given how well priced the apartment is. But if the host wanted to make this place an 11/10 then I would ensure the soap is full and supply some shower soap and shampoo and conditioner.
• Mujica (9/5): Muy buena - Lugar limpio y cómodo, amplia cocina y living. Baños cómodos. Lavadora disponible Los cuartos son un poco chicos pero no es nongún problema
• Vis (7/5): -
• Antony (8/5): - Lots of door code confusion and trying to get gear up to room and down at end of stay.
• Jeff (3/5): Once was enough - Location is ok, a few crackheads running around but there's a nice Italian spot next door and a good breakfast spot across the road. I called the owner as some of the cleaners possessions were left in the property, she was pleasant and answered right away. I might be the wrong guest for this property but my initial reaction was 'serial killers den'. The property doesn't have keys, just keypads. The festive coloring didn't hit the mark for me. Neighbours were very loud, kids screaming and knocking on people's doors at night. The owner made a comment that she was worried I was in the wrong property, which made me worry the key pads dont have unique codes. As a fit man I was nervous alone, I'd worry with my partner around. Not for me, but other people had a great time in the reviews.
• Elizabeth (7/5): - Great atmosphere and location not enough kitchen equipment. no pan
• Guest (8/5): 居心地の良いステキな場所 - 他のバッパーさんと仲良くなれて良かった！ 施設もキレイで良かった。 場所が少し分かりづらかった
• Kate (9/5): -
• Devon (7/5): -
• Eriko (10/5): -
• Isabel (6/5): - The vibe of the place was nice. Owner had good communication There were none of the small amenities that you would expect - no soap in the shower, or milk in the fridge. The skylights had no type of curtain or shutter. The area around didn't feel comfortable - an example was a man was peeing on the fence when we came back from our outing on Saturday morning.

• Riccardo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ina (1/5): Bad - I booked a week at this hostel but left after just three nights (I stayed only because I couldn’t find different accommodation immediately) because the conditions were so bad. The room was cramped and smelled musty, with a dirty carpet that made the space feel even more unwelcoming. The bathrooms were filthy: hair covered the floors, the showers were grimy, and the sinks were coated in dust. It was clear they weren’t cleaned regularly, and I avoided using them as much as possible. The common areas were a disaster, with shoes, bags, and clutter everywhere. The floors were sticky, and the kitchen was piled high with dirty dishes and leftover food. But the worst part? I saw a mouse scurrying around the shared living space! That was the final straw for me. I couldn’t handle staying there any longer and left immediately. This hostel desperately needs deep cleaning and better maintenance. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who values cleanliness or comfort. I let the owner know about the situation and asked for a partial refund for the unused nights, but they refused, saying I should have told them sooner. How was I supposed to know they’d let a place get this bad?
• Andre (6/5): Pleasant -
• Sherica (8/5): Very good -
• Allan (8/5): Excellent -
• Caitlin (3/5): Steer clear. - The location was good and surface level the place was nice, unfortunately a number of issues. There were mouse droppings in the pantry and food that seems to have been left behind by other guests. It wasn't cleaned properly - the hallway/stairwell area was pretty filthy and it doesn't seem to have been cleaned in a long time. I booked this place specifically for the parking, I had to park on the road down a random side street nearby. I was given the incorrect code to one of the door, tried calling the host and my calls weren't picked up, I did get a response to my text though, was told "I think try...", not sure how this hasn't happened before and why the default message hasn't been updated. Despite the photos showing standard bathroom basic there was no hand soap or anything like that. I definitely wouldn't stay again and would encourage people to stay elsewhere.
• Jay (6/5): Pleasant -
• Kaneko (7/5): Good -
• Peter (8/5): Very good, clean, comfortable, and close to venue we were attending. - NA Would have been great to have had coffee, tea, milk available on arrival instead of having to go back out to find them.
• Trish (8/5): Very good - The staff were great, the owner was very accommodating and upgraded myself and other female traveling partner to our own rooms as it was not busy... very nice of her! Full kitchen, fridge, microwave. Through out NZ you will notice many backpackers on work aways, hence they can stay longer periods at the hostels. Location was a little far from anything... but... could walk to a bus stop to get anywhere. Parking available if you have a car.
• Tony (1/5): Bad - Everything
• Ai (8/5): Upgraded to a private room. Much comfort. Unfortunately I needed to extend 1 to 3 nites but no response to my request. - I was upgraded. Had the room to myself. The tenants all were friendly.
• Tony (1/5): NASTY - Disliked the self check in and not getting a bed 6.5 hours after check in had to book elsewhere no refund horrible woman to deal with took the moral high ground and blamed me
• Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional - Clean. Arty. All conveniences. Nothing.
• Ingrid (6/5): Pleasant - The appartement was nice and clean, beautiful livingroom with kitchen. Bathroom modern and clean. Beds are good and comfortable. Distance from the Intercitybusstation 20 min. walking. But there is a bus to the citycenter. To the next supermarket 8 min walking. Room are very small, There are living young people for a long period. Boards in the room are full of their personal belongings and also the bottom. ( of course the girls need there personal belongings) So remains nearly no space to move for other guests ... Negative for me: somebody came very late at night at home, first night at 4.00 am and second night at 7.00 am. I waked also up at 2.30 because of people speaking loud in the kitchen. Walls are quite thin. It is not the perfect place , who has a light sleep .
• Greg (10/5): Arty - Location. Size of apartment. Couldn't get tv remotes working properly
• Hollie (6/5): Pleasant -
• Anne (9/5): Reasonable rates for city location. - *The shower room was spotlessly clean, modern & spacious. Also had a separate toilet and another shower cubicle. *Handy location if you were using public transport (day ticket costs only $8 meaning you can use the bus all day in and around Tauranga- a visit to beautiful Mount Maunganui is a must!) *Apartments also had onsite car parking. *Cafe right underneath apartments, supermarket nearby and a short 10 minute walk to the town centre & lively waterfront bars & restaurants. *Kitchen facilities a bit limited if 2 or more people were trying to cook at the same time. *Room 5 was noisy as it was located next to the communal area.
• Shreyas (8/5): Very good -
• Sophie (7/5): Convenient stay, does what it says on the tin. Good for one night. Clean and practical. - Convenient. Did what it said on the tin. More of a hostel than an apartment. Was a little bit misleading but other than that was fine!
• Sheppard (9/5): Superb -
• Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nico (10/5): Exceptional -
• Natasha (9/5): Family friendly - Very spacious Road a bit noisy but understandable being on a main street
• Leslie (5/5): Bedroom was small, but adequate. No air conditioning at all. Very hot overnight even with th - Location was good. Shared a bathroom with about 12 others.got locked in the bathroom due to a very inferior lock on bathroom door. It took 20 minutes to free the door. Suggest different lock on door, perhaps a hook rather than the inferior plastic locking device currently used.
• Peter (6/5): Pleasant - It's not really apartments as the name suggests. It's a hostel, or rooming house Tiny room, paper thin walls that let all noise from adjoining rooms and corridor in. Difficulty to reach any staff by phone.
• Singh (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gian (2/5): Very poor - I could not check in due to unhealthy conditions (dirty). Booking canceled with promise of the refund, But i have Never received it... so I have post my money for nothing. I felt scammed twice :-(
• Carl (8/5): Value for money thank you - Excellent location specially with the farmers market next door on a Saturday morning Everything clean and tidy Great communication Nice place to stay
