Surf 'N' Snow Backpackers

I booked 10 beds a room, but they had 2 booking with someone so they gave me one room for me. i was lucky and thank you so so much.

the room is very cold at night cuz the window at the top cannot be closed the water is cold as well…impossible to take a shower! reaaaally unexpected. it smells outside the gate of the place cuz many people pee outside! the worst backpacker experience ever!

The location is perfect, located in the heart of the city centre, 1 mins walk to the nearest countdown/woolworth. You can find anything you need in the area, you name it, you will find it. It is best for traveller first leg in New Zealand. There is a big common area, You get to meet a lot of backpackers which you can exchange information. Highly recommended. The only short is that the water in the shower is too low, it is like spraying water on you.

Pros: the hostel is located in the city center. U can find a plenty of restaurants around u, only 2 mins walk to the grocery, skytowner & aa centre… Besides, the price of living is really friendly. Cons: to be honey, the bed linen is little bit dirty, the water pressure of showerhead does not perform well. The fridges have not enough space to storage stuffs for all customers.

Good value for the price.
