Probably the best condition backpacker I've stayed in. Good location only half a mile from centre and blundell park. Facilities were in good order at all times. Only criticism was that my room was never cleaned in the time I stayed.

The room was ok for the price and the Toilet and shower was clean. It seams the walls are made from carton as you can hear the people talking next door. I liked the stay but in Hamilton the City council made it really hard to find a spot for the car in the central, when the free parking from the hostel is booked out. So not cool Hamilton Council :( Thanks HH

The property is in an easy position, staff is approachable. Bed is clean but I sit on the couch in the room and felt itchy. The property is on main road and is not that quite at night. I want to save my luggage for a few hours and was charged extra $5.
