Easy parking. Helpful friendly staff. Clean and tidy communal areas. Feijoas and chocolate pudding extra bonus.

The room was clean, but the bed was extremely creaky. Being of an older age group, probably not the best place for me, as the young ones were quite rowdy till late hours, also stomping around loudly. One was vomiting loudly in the middle of the night, which was unpleasant to hear. These are not the fault of the property managers, but indicates the demographic you may have to encounter. Other than that my room was clean, bedding was clean with fresh towels. Secure parking. Suited my budget and travelling situation for the night.

Super friendly and awesome space. Bea backpackers I have stayed in.

Great place to stay staff are friendly and very helpful.. they have thought of everything

Yes very good

helpful kind staff, clean rooms, free towels for shower & wonderful nightly vegan chocolate pudding :)

Everything clean, good service. Good value for money.

Really friendly and inclusive backpacker vibes but in a clean and well maintained hostel. I had a private room and it was very spacious and clean and comfy. I would stay here again.

All of our needs were met and we enjoyed the nightly option of gratis hot chocolate pudding and vanilla ice cream.

Very nice staff and it's in a great location wihban easy walk to downtown.

My second stay in this hostel. It was just as good as my first stay, lots of stuff to do, nice area to hang out, nice people and friendly staff. It is super clean and you get everything you need. The receptionist was very helpful, too :)

Very friendly clean, excellent facilities and lovely Staff. Really nice area too

Very helpful and accommodating staff. Very nice room and very clean. I loved the kitchen and dining room where you get to talk to all the guests who are on various journeys

I stayed in a private double room before and after the Abel Tasman Track. I was able to leave my luggage in a secure closet at reception for free. The hostel felt homey and had a nice community vibe to it. I credit the friendly staff for that. Towels and bar soap were provided, at least for the private double room. The walls are thin so earplugs are recommended depending on how loud your neighbors are. Kitchen was well stocked, free coffee and tea, and of course the free chocolate "pudding" (cake and ice cream) at 8pm. My only complaint is that the Hotels.com confirmation said check in starts at noon (which already seemed oddly early) but reception actually closes during midday and does not re-open until 3:30pm.

We were going to be late arriving adter the ferry broke down. An email was replied to quickly and an envelope with access codes left taped to the door. Thank you. Lovely friendly and homely stay, staff were very gelpful and the chocolate pudding and ice fream delicious, thank you again. Good location, quiet but easy access to town. Would definitely use again.

2nd stay

Great staff and social environment

This is an awesome backpackers! Located 5 minute walk from town, well equipped for travellers, with plenty of additional thoughtful touches to promote a sense of community for those that stay. Out door hammocks, and garden seating areas, an indoor fire, comfy couches, an electric piano, guitar, a clothing trading chest along with chocolate pudding and ice cream served each night at 8, all promoted a sense of home away from home. Staff were friendly, efficient and the kitchen was clearly signed with instructions to promote a clean well functioning area. There was a lovely vibe and sense of caring amongst visitors. We loved it!

Nice place for short stances

Was a great experience - will be back
