Great stay!nChris was very friendly and accommodating the place was nice and okay for the price they had already informed us about the noise after we booked, so we knew what to expect. The location is great close to town and near the beach. Very affordable and convenient. We would definitely come back!
Having read the other reviews I was unsure what to expect… we had a really good stay! Chris & Rob are really decent blokes and they make you feel very welcome. It’s a very low frills, down to earth, small friendly hostel - and we enjoyed it.nnI think booking a private room did help regarding noise - although it was a weird shared bathroom with another room our neighbours had no idea how this worked and ended up locking us out several times lol
I honestly hesitated between 2 and 3 stars for this place.nnOn the positive side, the location is great and it’s really cheap. The hostel is cute and cozy, with a nice atmosphere. However, it also feels a bit run-down and not super clean in some areas.nnA huge bonus though: the TV room!! It was amazing. There’s a proper lounge setup with armchairs, a convertible chair, a couch, and a big TV with great sound. It’s such a nice space to relax and chill.nnNow for the downsides… The shower situation is honestly strange. It’s literally a tiny room with a shower head attached to the ceiling, and it’s right next to the bedrooms — which is not ideal at all. The bed was also very uncomfortable. You could feel the springs sticking out, and it actually hurt.nnBut nothing compares to the first night we spent there. There’s a bar downstairs, and the noise was insane. We genuinely felt like we were inside the bar. You can literally hear everything, and it went on until at least 2am. I don’t know who had the idea first — the dancing bar or the hostel — but putting them in the same building was not the best decision. It’s definitely a huge negative point.nnThat being said, it does the job when the bar isn’t open.
Stayed here overnight on a Sunday with a couple of friends and everything was great! Hostel & staff are very welcoming, plus the location was pretty central in town & great to explore the area, I recommend Ariki without no doubt !
We stayed in the family room, works well for 4 friends. A little noise as predicted on the weekend but otherwise a very confortable and social place to stop in. And of course at a very good price!
