Overall stay was acceptable. It was easy to get there, lots of available parking space and cooking facilities were adequate. However, there was no hot water for showering on our first night and it is abit noisy with people walking around. Not sure if the hot water ran out on the first night as the place was fully booked (we showered around 8pm). We intentionally showered earlier on the second night (arnd 6pm) and there was no issue. We might have been unlucky with the water heating but would recommend to shower earlier, esp if you’re intending to stay in the winter.

There were really clean and modern kitchen and lounge. But it’s a bit pity that the dryer place didn’t work well when I stayed.

Location is wonderful. There are no many options for budget travelers around Mt Cook. Yet it is worth to visit. Staff are friendly. Price are competitive.

I had a late check in and I forgot to let them know but luckily then left the key with my name on it in an envelop. The place was very clean. It looks new and simple. Staff were nice. I will be back for sure.

I was told that the bed i was about to select had bugs! I had friendly roommates; wouldve been nice to know that i was booked 📖 into a hostel & that I'd be sharing a room with up to 7 other people.

Clean and seemed to be well managed. Stayed two nights in an 8 bed dorm. Deducted one star as the internet wasn't working for a few hours the first morning.

Disappointing stay.
This was rated as a 4 star hotel on hotels. com and on arrival it turned out to be a backpacker hostel with shared shower and toilet facilities. Not something that was evident when booked. TV didn't tune to channels, no facilities within the room, WiFi was poor and no breakfast available. The room, however, was clean and well kept but the hostel was noisy. Left very early, very disappointed.
