Well not much tidy, but that is probably guests fault. Guy at reception was nice. And equipment was good.
⚠️WARNING!!! The worst backpackers. Bad odour, dirty toilet and bathroom. I booked a female bed, but they gave me a mixed bed with 3 Indian boys without any reminder.
You'll miss the best that tauranga has to offer if you miss this place.
I think is a nice backpackers depending on what you are looking for. If you want to make friends from all over the world I think this is the right place for you. But if you want a quiet place, tidy, nice smell, with nice showers, and a nice and clean Kitchen, with decent people. This is definitely not the place for you as it's all the opposite. It seems like they haven't renovate this place in years which makes it unhygienic and some times disgusting.
Relaxed friendly atmosphere. Good prices. Clean rooms.
It's ok, the price is ok, the beds aren't bad, but the 300mb daily limit on the wifi is ridiculous, I mean I wouldn't mind so much if it was more reasonable like 2gb but 300mb doesn't get you anywhere, other than that, could be better, I've been in worse
Worst experience of my entire life. Sushil at reception tried to sell me opium. Followed me to bed. Guy cleaning the rooms smelt like weed and even lit up a smoke whilst sniffing my dirty laundry. Offered me work took it then ended up in the local brothel. Was harrased by the Hostel creep Tony. He really scared me. Gave you one star cause I could drink made the sleeping better. And met a bunch of good drug dealers here.
I found the room ridiculously small & didn't feel that the kitchen & bathroom were very clean. The shower was a good one though!
Worst hostel I have ever stayed at in my life! They had lost my reservation, closed down the reception and locked the entrance an hour before the scheduled time leaving two travellers with reservations outside. The place is horrendous, dirty and it smells awful. The fact that they ask for a NZ 25 key deposit makes me believe that they house homeless people there often. Unorganized and messy. I saw a bunch of mattresses just standing against a wall in one of the hallways. And what they advertise as free internet is only 50MB, if you want more you have to buy it. Would not recommend it.
nice party palce. good vibe. will definatly recommend the palce.
