Ariki Backpacker is in a great location, close to the museum, the coastal walkway, and a large market within walking distance.
The staff were very friendly, and it was nice to be able to do laundry at a low price and rent a bike at a very good price.
It was a guesthouse with great facilities overall, such as a small movie theater-like room, a restaurant, and a bathroom.
The cleanliness was also good.. I will definitely use it again next time.
I highly recommend this accommodation..

The rooms were clean, the kitchen was tidy, and the hot water in the communal showers came quickly.

Overall it's OK, the most unbearable thing is that the bar downstairs is very noisy late at night, it's hard to fall asleep unless you are very tired
