    A lovely quiet spot perfect for two couples as each room has its own ensuite. Very extensive breakfast provisions provided, cereals, yoghurt, fresh fruit, and a range of spreads for on toast. Super comfortable, like home away from home. Very friendly and helpful hosts too.

    A good kitchen and dining room. Close to the city center in a quiet and nice environment. It was quiet at night. It was great that shuttle bus service to Mt Taranaki is available at the hostel. Grocery stores near by.
