Great location to base yourself for a few days of seeing Queenstown. (It really is that close.)
Nice and friendly staff at check in and throughout. Most helpful.
Ents included TV, books, games, couple of guitars, ocassional theme evenings. Couple of outdoor spaces.
Bathrooms are fine although if fairly or more than fairly tall, the shower heads are surprisingly low down.
I understand the difficulties with this given the time of year but a floor by floor deep clean is probably needed. Whilst I am no member of the fun police, having numerous notes across the place emphasising the need to keep noise down after 10pm, I can see why this might be a bit galling when the staff who live there alongside guests do not abide by this - especially when you have no idea who is a worker who is off duty.
Might be impossible given temperatures, but it wasn't ideal to climb into my bunk in the pitch black (other than the light from my phone) and find a cat sleeping there (honestly!) I like a cat but if I hadn't had my phone lit, I would never have known and would have landed forcefully on it. I actually found it quite funny but a lot wouldn't. All hell could have broken loose if I had landed on it. (Amusingly and no joke, I was watching Don't F*** with Cats at the time and had paused it while I climbed in. Perhaps it was written...)
Anyway, really nice spot and right for the price.
Cheers!
Very impressive and clean facilities. Didn't feel like a hostel. The huge kitchen was very well equipped with many microwaves, stove, etc. Even air-fryer ! Cutlery and cookware are top-notch and well-organized. The fridge has clear instructions. Free food from past guests were organized accordingly. Dining area and lounge area are like cafe setting ! The washing machine and drying machine are easy to use. Staff was very kind to assist as I inserted wrong coin into the wrong slot and was refunded the money. Highly recommended !!! New World supermarket is so conveniently next door. There's an open car park next to the park behind the hostel. Can park for free !
Basic accommodation offering, you can’t expect too much.
You need to go outside for bathroom and shower. The hot water only last for couple minutes. And the button bunk bed is so small that as a 5”2 person I can’t even sit up in my bed.
Cheap but in general quite average.
ผผู้เข้าพักThe ambiance of this place was quite unique, with dim lighting and not many electric lights, which gave it a rustic charm. One of the highlights was the ability to cook meals, which added a nice touch of convenience. Plus, there are plenty of shops nearby where you can easily pick up groceries or essentials.

MMatthew HaHoHeAria on the bank provided a very comfortable apartment style accommodation. The location was convenient to a supermarket and restaurants. The apartment was also nice and warm on the cold winter nights in Dunedin.
DDan WuangExcellent location and PIN code lock safety mechanism on major entries are helpful.
Right next to Intercity coach pickup station which I rely for the whole journey in NZ.
There are elevator thus no worry on carrying my heavy huge luggage and hand carried.
I stayed in 6 dormitories ensuite. Rooms are bigger and there are a huge storage for each resident. Extra lockers and storage can be found outside the bunk should you need more space.
Towel is provided as well.
Very quiet at night thus can sleep well.
Kitchen is huge and I still find space to put my groceries inside the fridge and cubicle outside.
Will be back to stay for a couple of nights when I am back to Queenstown.
KKirkbyCromwell is a beautiful place and this motel was perfect for our stay which included a trip to the Carrick Winery restaurant and a walk along the Cromwell to Clyde trail. The host gave us great tips on where to eat breakfast and overall was a super stay
