Reviews
I got a room without a Door handle from inside. There is no tea in kitchen and it was cold in room.nFrom good aspects this place has unic furniture and nice kitchens. Big ones.
Worst backpackers I've ever stayed at in my life and I've stayed in ones all over the world.nThe room stinks a damp,musty smell which smells like grandma's closet.The carpet is from the 1960s and badly needs replacing and everytime you shut the door it's like the window is going to fall out.Oh and on top of that there is a SHEET for a curtain.Toilets are not advertised as male or female and there is a lot of confusion around that.nUnbelievably bad it shouldn't even be open.nThey also say no check-ins from 9pm so other guests are disrupted but that clearly wasn't the case when I was staying.nDo yourself a favour and stay at the other backpackers.nI left at 11.30pm at night because it was so bad and I couldn't sleep.nThe only good thing about this place is the location.
Kia ora hello :nnJust want to say this is a really great place to stay and the host is a lovely lady! :DnnLocated in the heart of Oamaru with 5 min walks to everything from....The supermarket, Banks, The beach, Takeaways ectnnFree FAST wifi Clean building, lovely bathrooms with great showers that are spick spam. The kitchen is nice as well also has dishes ect that you can use for your cooking.nnPretty basic rules no cooking after 10:30 and keep the volume down just common courtesy rules witch is good.nnWould definitely stay here again :
Loved this place!!!! Parking for free behind building, access from there via a small alley. Easy area to walk, lots to see and do. Co-ed bathrooms and shower areas, but privacy in there by closing doors for your specific activity. Everyone was very nice! Musical instruments in the rooms by the kitchen!!!
As a backpackers this is clean, well-provisioned and at a very reasonable price. I met the owner by chance. Nice guy.
