Staff were friendly and helpful. Location is very convenient. Facilities are good. I did however have a cluster of ants in my room. They were swiftly dealt with by staff within about 5 minutes after reporting. I was grateful for being able to leave luggage prior to check in but a bit disappointed i had to pay 2 nzd to store luggage in a locked on departure for about 90 to 120 minutes. I can understand charges for longer periods of left luggage on check out, but under 2 hours seemed a bit unfortunate. However i would still recommend the YHA for others, although if you want a more "party" type hostel, this isn't it.

The first experience when checking in was good. Male receptinist is actually horrible asked to move room after not sleeping. My partner called as a family emergenc. was going on at 9 and got told very impolitely by the roomatewho kept me up all night and asked to switch rooms. I got told no even after saying id pay the extra for smaller room. Then ended up in a screeming match of me being forced to apologise like a 5 year old to a girl who kept me up all night. Hence asking to kindly switch rooms. Horrible experiance would not reccomend at all.

最低限のドミトリーと考えて良いでしょう。私の部屋では臭いが独特のにおいがしたのであまり良い環境ではないと感じました。 値段相応のドミトリーかなと言う印象でした。

This hostel in the city center looks a bit shady from outside, but inside it‘s amazing! Very colorful and stylish painted! The stuff at reception is extremly friendly and helpful. There is even fresh toast in the morning for free! The kitchen is huge and you‘ll find all you need. There is also a big grill outside. In the living room area you‘ll even find a fooseball and a airhockey table! Beside the living room there is a seperate tv room. Really amazing place to stay!!

We stayed at the YH a Nelson for two nights in June. Pros: location, great kitchen, Wi-Fi, DVD selection, big common areas, sauna, free bread! Cons: only street parking Our overall stay was great. There was an awesome farmers market just outside of the hostel on Saturday with tons of produce, crafts and local products/farmers. Would definitely recommend this place to all other travelers!

Great stay. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The room is what you’d expect from a dorm room. The safe was a bit small but was present. The facilities were clean and convenient.
