03 October 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Great central location, with lots of great cheap places to eat. Cheap icehockey tickets are a bonus especially for solo travellers as the hostel group goes together and volunteer guide Ron gives a pre-match rundown of the rules.

Disliked: Very noisy, with partying on Granville St until the early hours of the morning (at least during the weekend) so had difficulty sleeping- try to get a room at the back if you can

Liked: The bed was comfortable and warm enough... room clean and bathrooms clean enough.

Disliked: The entire decor is dark and depressing, dark blue carpets, mustard walls and black ceilings, its like being in a basement. The kitchen is small, no where near enough room for even half the residents. You pay to use the washing machine, you pay for the washing powder and the lift is tiny, smells funky and is incredibly sloooooooooow.

Liked: Good location in the city, although the actual street was a bit dodgy and I wouldn't have walked around on my own at night there. Free brekkie was a bonus and although our shared room was quite small (two bunk beds) it had a sink and ample space to store our bags.

Disliked: Only 4 private bathrooms per floor was was ok as they were regularly cleaned and there was usually one available - apart from at peak times! It was barely a problem in the general scheme of things.

Liked: Parking was more expenise than I had expected. Other than that it was fine, a pretty normal hostel experience. If you like clubbing and the big night time scene this is a great place to stay. Also it's not too far to walk down to the water, but not the beach. Overall it was an alright place to stay.

Disliked: Nalani left no negative feedback.
