Very Good

Just to be clear it is a hostel so remember that but our separate room had a terrace, bathroom, microwave and lots of space. The hostel is well run, has great facilities and is just so lovely and quiet and isolated. A real treat

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We enjoyed our overnight stay. The facilities were sufficient and the online check in worked for us. The wifi was a bit intermittent though unfortunately.
The staff are amazing. Especially to the owner. He helped us immensely. We had a car issue and he helped us and made us feel welcome. The owner went over and above and beyond to accommodate us. It’s not out of pity. You can tell he's just one of those people you rarely come across who are willing to help. Has a kind caring personality. Big shout-out to the owner.
Nice and cheap stay. Noisy kids running up and down the hallway (but thats not the accommodations fault.) Easy drive to Whakapapa so good spot!
Noisy heater fan in bedroom when it was closed.

We stayed 2 nights in the ‘deluxe’ double room No 4 directly behind reception.
The self check-in process was very easy to use.
I suspect like everyone else we were there to do the Alpine Crossing. So in that context it suited us fine, only a few minutes drive to the pickup point. The room was en-suite, the shower was okay once it warmed up and it had a decent TV with a range of channels.
The kitchen was well equipped.
Overall very good value.
Great budget location for exploring and hiking the park. Kitchen gets busy and was missing spoons (common issue in shared kitchens- we had our own so it wasn’t a problem, somewhat dated and mostly clean. Liked the easy self check-in as well. Not a rowdy or loud hostel- we stayed here with our kids in a family room and had a great sleep and stay.

Not to far from the center. My family likes entertainment area specifically the movies room serect. The first night cold in the room but the staff fixed the issue next day.
Great stay. It took a little while to get used to the fact that this property is unmanned but it actually worked very well. Check in was easy. The kitchen was well stocked. The shower pressure was great - although the shower is protected only by a curtain so not super private but wasn’t an issue. The bed was comfy. We stayed in a private room which even had a smart tv! Hostel luxury! Would definitely recommend. It is in the middle of nowhere but easy to access Whakapapa village and the other attractions in the area
Clean, helpful staff and affordable. Highly recommended it and certainly if we’re around the area will use it again. And they got vending machine which I find it helpful everything you need can be purchase at very cheap price.
The bedsheets is a little smelly to my standards but all in all it is a nice place to stay. Value for money. It has everything you need. The kitchen has everything and it is clean. Warm showers and clean toilets. It is very near to Tongariro national park so the location is very good! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
