Was a perfect spot for a one night stay, being just a short walk from town. We loved the enclosed bunk beds and it was convenient that we could leave our bags at the hostel after we checked out.
Good spot for every backpacker staying in Queenstown for a night or two. Good price, great location. Whole place has a nice, chill vibe
Perfect budget accommodation, probably on the upper edge of what you would normally get for hostel style accommodation. The free coffee, and the water/ice machines on each floor is a bonus. Exactly the accommodation we where chasing in a great location
Cheap hostel. Curtains on your bunk bed in a 6 bed dorm room. Close to city centre. Close to gondola and harbour. A common room with big sofa's, 3 small kitchen, reasonably clean. Friendly staff. Small closet with space under beds to store your bags. You need to bring your own padlock. Clean bedlinnen. Cleaning is done every day by the girls working at the reception. Electronic door keys. Close by to sky field and other attractions.
I loved staying at Oamaru Backpackers. My room was very cozy and comfy, the kitchen and the living room were so nice and bright with everything you need to cook and to relax. Very nice view. So far one of the best hostel I've been to since I'm in NZ last year. Sadly I only stayed one night.
Great location and views. Well run and organised hostel and felt fairly safe. Handy to supermarket and a zillion eateries. Great to have option of ensuite room. Staff were helpful.
Best Hostel Backpackers ever! Amazing staff who are very knowledgeable about the area and activities to do while you stay, the cleanest room with excellent room service and the best amenities with eco friendly products given.
Great location, lovely staff that do what they can to keep their guests happy. Wifi good. Very clean which makes up for the general run-down state of the lodge/hostel building (as opposed to the lovely main building). Showers surprisingly good with hot water. Cheapest private room of Wanaka that day so yes you get what you pay for.
