The Flaming Kiwi Backpackers

:)

The room has a very strong smell. The curtains are new with formaldehyde which will definitely hurt my health but they don’t want to change it.

Great place! Everything was comfortable and it is a short walk to the town center.

Booked a Cabin which was clean and comfortable. Property short walk to town and also close to Fresh Choice Supermarket. Its a Back Packer so a few semi permanents but plenty of Kitchens and share bathrooms.

Helpful and attentive staffing team

Awesome location with lovely view.

It was convenient to have a seperate cabin, but the bathrooms were a bit few. typicaly peopledon not understand the oncept of mopping the floor in the wet floor bathroom after thay have used it, so it was frequently wet.

Showers were leaking downstairs but good otherwise

Cute little cabin, staff were extra helpful. Other housemates were friendly and thoughtful. Easy walk to town right near the base of the chairlift.

It was a warm welkom and I stayed for a week, they put longstay together, so i got to know my roommates and they were very nice. I really enjoyed my week there. In the evening there were activities like bingonight, movienight, gamingchallenge etc. I had lucky with a free parkingplace but there are not many spots so that’s the only minor…

Really well located for the town centre. A 5-10 minute walk. Limited parking with street parking available. The room a compact cabin outside the main house. Comfortable bed. With a double and a single bunk up a vertical ladder. No air conditioning but windows provided adequate ventilation. The washroom is in the main block. So for the cabins facilities are outside but inside through a combination/ swipe card door. The bathroom of which could be found on all floors. So waiting wasn’t an issue generally. The atmosphere in the house is excellent. Young friendly group of travellers very active socially and welcoming made for a positive atmosphere. Unfortunately I am too old at 65 to be so active. Sleeping and security proved to be effective. For the cost convenience atmosphere and security you can’t go wrong. If I was 25-35 it’s perfect.

Quality of bathrooms was amazing, seemingly newly renovated. But bedroom distinctly smelt like mold and sweat so we had to deal with either the pungent smell or moths and mosquitoes. Bedroom lock was also broken, had to climb through the window one night as keys were not working. Daily kitchen and bathroom cleans happen every morning, which is great but it’s at an inconvenient time of 8am when you’d want to shower and use the kitchen before heading out.

Friendly place and well kept

good

The room smell of bleach so strong it sting your eyes. First night, the upper of the bunk bed where my friend sleeping fell into my head while in deep sleep. Bruises on my head and ear. $20 worth of our food went missing. The reception Emilia reassure to find it but when she saw us didn’t say a thing. I guess the location is accessible to shop the only thing we like.

Nice hostel with many friendly people in it. Stayed in the private cabin. Enough space, all I needed just next door in shared kitchen and bathroom

The staff were so nice! Really great place to stay on a budget too. Very nice location- you can walk right down to shops, hikes, and other fun activities. LOVED it! Would definitely book again :)

My Queen room absolutely with no sound proof at all,you can hear everything single conversation from next room and overall this place is pretty run down but staffs is very friendly.

Great staff.

Very good customer service and staff are very helpful
