A Great Hostel in Queenstown

Great location, kind staff, and it was very clean. Beds were comfy. You can’t really see out the kitchen window much anymore because of the trees but it’s still very pretty.

Great location for the view and proximity to everything.

The location was on the lake so had a breath taking view. All the common areas were clean and comfortable. Bathroom on Level 1 was more spacious compared to my en-suite bathroom - both clean just Level 1 was more spacious. Close proximity to all the restaurants,supermarket and Bus Interchange.
