Lovely old time hostel form a converted hotel. Bed was comfortable, room was clean and tidy. Only issue was heater being wall mounted with a timer which would click off every 30 minutes. Not ideal on a very cold night.

A nice no-thrill hostel where the staff are super friendly and helpful. In NZ west coast, hostels are for travellers of all ages. So if you are concerned (like I did) about staying with a bunch of college, worry not. The shared bathroom is not that much a hassle. It's like staying at a friend's or relative's place. There is a sink inside each room. The walk from the train station is 10 min. Do bring your own soap, shampoo, and conditioner. For what they lack in toiletry, they make it up with a gigantic kitchen with all the pots, pans, utensils...you ever need for a trip.

Thanks to the staff, I had a great day. He's very kind and give me a lot of useful information. The room is small and labyrinthine, but it's clean and satisfying to stay for a short time.
