Staff were awesome. Chris held the room despite my NZ bank blocking my card (even though they were notified I was overseas). Clean and lovely place to stay.

Exceeded our expectations for a relatively low budget hostel like spot. Room was charming with bright bedding, high ceilings, a small table with chairs and window that opened. Bathroom down the hall was always available. Location right downtown was great.

We loved our stay. The location is perfect and nature here is stunning. Best youth hostel we’ve ever stayed at. Food was delicious, they had a live band there as well and picnic tables and an oven in our tent. It was a perfect weekend for us.

Beautiful cliff top location with stunning sea views (especially from the inn’s terrace). Good basic hostel facilities. Shower good enough. Good staff at check in and bar. Burger and chips, coleslaw at bar on terrace good. Not cheapest but 25% off for being a hostel guest nice.

What an excellent place to stay. Unless you hate hostels of course. Lots of great spaces. Dormitory beds have power and a light each plus a place to put things. Lockable cupboards under the beds. The thoughtful details go on and on. And great staff and a smashing location. I would definitely stay there again. In fact I did.
