The building has an old colonial character. Lots of books and interesting art. Gardens are pretty and the location is central. Value for money.
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
The hostel is in a great location being pretty much in the centre of town, and the main bus interchange is less than a five minute walk. The staff were excellent and the facilities were generally clean and well-maintained. The common areas were quite big and spacious which was nice as hostels often tend to have somewhat cramped common areas.
This would have to be one of the best backpackers we've stayed in! Great location, comfy bed and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved the restaurant and ate there twice!! Ghe place had a really good vibe and was a mixture of young backpackers and locals having a drink or meal.
The atmosphere in the hostel was super pleasant. The staff was always friendly and helpful! Rob, the owner, is a great person who is always open to a chat. There is ice cream in the fridge and the wonderful garden invites you to relax. Great location! Can only recommend it!!
A warm welcome and friendly staff at the hostel, which is cheap for Nelson. The kitchen is good and there's some nice outdoor space. Our room was in a second building, which was well-sized and with a shared bathroom/shower, which worked well.
The girl on reception that checked us in was really lovely and helpful (Kat). The beds were alright. Close walking distance to a lot of shops etc. Cheap stay, good for a low budget. Easy check-in and check-out. There is a really nice rooftop smoking area with picnic table.
