i already recommened this location to another backpacker! manny was exceptional in greeting and checking me in, orienting me to the facillities. the next morning the lady at the front desk, i think her name was carole (?) went out of her way to look up a local point of interest listed in the tour book, both managers made me feel very welcome and i can hardly wait for an opportunity to return!

THE LOCATION
28 March 2008
Its location and cosy feel was great. Other guests were quite unfriendly though. One woman asked if I could move out of her dorm room because there were enough people in it already, although there was plenty room and an spare bed. She might have been having a bad day, but even so . . . GM

This was a good hostel for the price, only comment is that they could do with more cups, mugs and glasses. There were hardly any available.

Relaxing atmosphere, very quiet and small. Right across the road from the ocean, an easy walk to the 'main street' in Napier.
