Hostel was in an area of town that was not the cleanest and had some shady characters roaming about outside but I guess that's how it goes in a lot of cities around the world. Other than that it was a nice place to stay. The young lady at the front desk was the best.

Well located for walking into the CBD. Parking was secure. The room was spacious including the bathroom. There was a constant background noise from the pipes presumably but didn't disrupt sleeping.

Es una buena opción. Habitaciones cómodas y amplias. Cocina bien equipada y baños limpios. Si no lo califico mejor, es porque no les costaria nada poner luz en las camas. Realmente se hecha en falta

オークランド自体が坂が多いので重めのキャリーなどで来る人は最寄りバスがあるのでバスで来ることをお勧めします。 自分のロッカーも大きいし、シャワー室やトイレ洗面台も管理されてて綺麗です。水圧温度OKです！各ベッドにコンセント２つ穴があり、専用ライトはないです。部屋の電気だけでの生活になるので共有の作業スペースやリビングでパソコン作業などをする形になるかと思います。 15分かからずに歩いてタワーにいけます。 オーナーも良い人で対応が早くて全体としても良いです。

Die Zimmer und die Küche war an sich groß genug. Auch WC und Duschen waren in ausreichender Form vorhanden. Allerdings wurden diese entweder nicht richtig sauber gemacht oder die Gäste sind absolut schweinisch damit damit umgegangen...

HOTEL MIXTE BACKPACKERS

hotel placé centre ville très pratique pour les activités et excursions , tout les rendez vous sont en centre ville, c est quand même un backpackers... un peu bruyant car les gens ne font pas attention quand ils vont aux toilettes : portes claques pour wc et douches, j ai même une une réunion de nouveaux arrivants a minuit faites dans le couloir de l étage (chambres) au lieu de réaliser leur réunion dans la cuisine au rez de chaussée ..dommage!!! pas de petit déjeuner les gens achètent leur produits rangent dans des casiers et déjeunent dans la cuisine(rez de chausse) pour moi de la chance il y a juste a cote de l hôtel un café ou bar qui réalise des déjeuners ( nom: métro galerie art) Cool.Je pense que c est un backpackers un peu au dessus de la moyenne.
