We, a retired couple who don't speak English, stayed in this kind of backpacker hotel for the first time (mainly because it is close to the penguin base, a 10-minute walk, and the key is that we also want to experience it). We checked in by ourselves (we checked in very smoothly with the help of Ctrip customer service). It was the first time to experience this kind of backpacker hotel for young people. Unexpectedly, the environment was good facing the sea, and the linens were very clean. We booked a double sea view room and thought it had an independent bathroom, but it didn't matter. The public one was also very clean and hygienic! The public viewing living room was great, the kitchen was great, and there were simple free ingredients. That night, we saw several little blue penguins on the beach. The blue was super beautiful. It was super cute to see someone sneaking around! Taking pictures of penguins and interacting with them on the beach shore road left an unforgettable impression! The two elderly people played until 10 o'clock in the evening before returning to the hotel. That night, there were 6 young people in the hotel, 4 foreigners, 1 Korean beauty, and 1 Chinese young man (who has been in New Zealand for 8 years and came to play alone during the holiday). It was very happy to chat with him, and thanked him for giving us a pack of Master Kong instant noodles and an egg! It is recommended to live on the 2nd floor. Living on the 1st floor is a wooden building, and people walking on the 2nd floor will hear it! But it is very quiet when you sleep, and it is super beautiful to take pictures of the starry sky at night and the sunrise in the morning!
