Had a private room which was clean and very comfortable. Cosy too. Only spent two nights but would’ve been happy there on a long trip. The shared areas were great too, especially for socialising. Staff were super friendly. Would definitely stay again.

DO NOT BE ELUDED BY THE LOWEST PRICES. THE PLACE HAS HORRIBLE ATTENDANCE. THEY SCREAM AT THEIR OWN CLIENTS, BEING VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND IMPOLITE. THEY NEVER ANSWER THE PHONE WHEN REQUESTED. THE PLACE IS VERY DIRTY, THE TOILETS AND KITCHEN HAVE FLIES. THE ROOMS ARE OVERPACKED WITH BAD-LOOKING PEOPLE, WHO MAKE USE OF **** IN A DAY LIGHT AS I NOTICED WITH MY OWN EYES. DEFINITELY A PLACE TO BE AVOIDED BY ANY MEANS!

Cool place, we particularly appreciated the garden with its barbecue. From our experience, it is a good backpackers in Nelson, which is not necessarily the case because we had a bad experience elsewhere.
