Awesome location. Facilities are old and dated but certainly provided an authentic experience. Really appreciate the flexibility to check in late. Ideal if you are in transit after a hike and need a one night lay over. ##### Jared Stayed 1 night in Feb 2026 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Corrina 22 Mar 2026 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room had no shelf, hooks, or anything to put my things on. Security non-existent! ##### Corrina Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Hritvik Arjun 7 Mar 2026 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Extremely filthy, an absolute waste of money. The staff is not good and doesn’t show any concern of keeping the property clean and tidy. It smells, has no ventilation system and is not at all good considering the location. I would never recommend staying here. ##### Hritvik Arjun Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Simon 30 Dec 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Sadly, backpacker accommodation in Queenstown seems to have sunk to a lowest common denominator. Clean but scruffy and unloved, would not be tolerated if there were any options. Compare with AKL... One issue is that many residents are there long-term while working, not the typical travelling backpacker clientel. ##### Simon Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Dominic 2 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service It was a good place to stay for a night. ##### Dominic Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Qingyi 5 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities I didn’t get email back about late checking. But some young man was there helping me to get key and carried my luggage up to the two staircases. ##### Qingyi Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Wai Shun Wilson 28 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities There's no on site parking for backpacker room even the app says "parking included". It's a dirty hostel but for the price and location you get what your paying for. I wouldn't stay there for more than just a sleep over night. ##### Wai Shun Wilson Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Sophia 25 Nov 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities The room and living spaces were overall clean but the bathroom was not so much. The only light in the bathroom with the toilet was burnt out for the 4 days I was there and the 2nd toilet was out of order. The shower stalls were not the cleanest and the drains would not drain the best causing them to fill up and overflow if you didn't pay attention. The oven also does not work. I did cancel my nights at another hostel and stayed here 2 extra nights as I did feel very safe and street parking was overall decent. I would stay here again. A good price for what you get. ##### Sophia Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### brooke 20 Sept 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Blanket was full of hair that was not mine ##### brooke Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Uillians 14 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Good ##### Uillians Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Alexander 30 Sept 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Roome, kitchen and bathroom were dirty.

It's far from the center and poorly maintained. I was offered hard drugs by the people who stayed there for a long time. Wouldn't go there, unless I have to. ##### Shaked Stayed 1 night in Nov 2022 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Federico 7 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service No hospitality, before check in I wasn’t allowed to go to the toilet because it wasn’t check in time… weird ##### Federico Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### T G A Buma 7 Apr 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Absolute dump, don’t stay there Very run down and neglected property. But in a prime location. I would say the building will soon be bulldozed, so current operators are doing zero maintainence. Dirty and mouldy. Kitchen/Dining filthy. Kitchen sink tap fallen off. Absolute scum hole. Not recommended. Don’t know why Hotel.com lists this place. It is very substandard. ##### T G A Buma Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### DIEGO 3 Jun 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This is the worst hostel, the staff was really rude with me, I was asking for the manager or supervisor to complain about something and the guy that it was working was challenging me to do the complaint. I send an email to get some help but they didn’t reply to me. No space in the rooms to leave you luggage. Do not stay in this hostel ##### DIEGO Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 24 Mar 2025 So I stayed in a dorm. You are required to sign a sheet that says they aren't responsible for stolen items, however to get to the dorms it's a code that is laminated on the front counter so probably never changes and then there are no locks on the doors and no lockers in the room. They charge you to use the lockers in the small common area. So to me that is wrong to make guest sign something when anyone can walk in and take something of yours as the security is very low. Upon arrival I was told that I couldn't use the parking lot and I had to park on street (very busy street and it would have taken hours to find a free street parking spot. ) I had to show them on hotels.com where it said I could park on site and they did let me as long as they didn't need the spot. So it worked out. The kitchen was okay. It's really only as clean as the people using it leave it. Wasn't super clean, it wasn't well stocked but not scarce either. I stayed one night and it worked for that. I literally only booked here because of the advertised free parking. (So read carefully they may not offer the free parking option in the future) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### CHANGHU 30 Mar 2026 I did NOT check in this hostel since unexpected New Zealand border agent’s mistake, and I even did not arrive the New Zealand . Please process the full refund $46.03 to my original payment account. I will dispute this payment if not refund being issued.
