We loved the privacy the room and property itself provided. We had long days so it was nice to have a quiet space, we were able to get to sleep in no time. June was absolutely lovely, she left us to it but also would have chats with us so we felt very welcome in her home. We fell in love instantly with the accommodation, it was very clean and the little touches around the room was very nice. We were warm and were provided with everything we needed for the time spent in the accommodation.

    Perfect location - within walking distance to the city center and great views into the harbour. Super creative solution with 'kitchen in the wardrobe' - tiny but effective. Lovely hosts living upstairs are available for every question/need you might have.

    Beautiful flat, in a great location, with lovely hosts. Well thought out design, with everything you could think of needing. Perfect for a short or long stay. Short walk to bus stop into Central Wellington, which we utilised and was fantastic alongside the onstreet parking. Will be happy to stay here again!

    Great hostel in a quiet but central location. The mattress was extremely comfortable and everything was impecable. The staff was really friendly and let me do an early check in. They have several common areas, one in each floor, and the roof terrance is a huge bonnus. Fully equipped and spacious kitchen. Free bikes to ride around town. I loved this hostel, everything was perfect.
