Our room was really spacious, comfortable and very clean. We were delighted to find that tea, coffee and some little milk cartons had been left for us. Our bed was large, cozy and we slept well. There was very little noise at all. The shower was powerful., and the body soap and shampoo were useful.

Lovely place, very comfortable and clean, full of books and handwritten advice about where to go and what to eat while in Dunedin. Never interacted with the host in person, but friendly interactions via message. It felt cozy, homey, and still private. I would absolutely stay here again.

The apartment is just stunningly beautiful and clean. I was very much looking forward to the stay after reading the reviews and seeing the photos. I can say that my expectations were fully met, if not exceeded to an extent. I wish we could have stayed longer. Andrew was super kind and helpful. He responded to my messages within a few minutes and came to our door to help. Highly recommend this accommodation! Beats so many five-star hotels I’ve stayed at before!

The accommodation is perfect. The hostel's location is unbeatable. Just a 10-minute walk takes you to the city center. The surrounding area is super safe, with plenty of free and secure parking. By car, you're just 5 minutes from the most popular supermarkets. You can go for a leisurely walk through the area's parks, as well as to the city center, and you'll always feel safe. As for the facilities, everything is absolutely new and spotless. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. There are plenty of bathrooms, and they're always clean and fully equipped with soap, hand towels, and hair dryers! The showers have hot water and excellent water pressure, and plenty of space for everyone who wants to use them. It has many very comfortable seating areas with new, super-comfortable armchairs, ideal for relaxing with your laptop or cell phone undisturbed. The kitchen is something never seen before. All the cutlery, glasses, cups, and pots and pans are brand new. Plenty of space to cook, and above all, the necessary utensils. A microwave, oven, toaster, French press coffee maker, and all the kitchen utensils you could need. The best thing about this area is that it has a beautiful view of the street with large windows that allow you to enjoy your coffee in complete relaxation. The TV area is wonderful. The TV is state-of-the-art and allows you to watch all the streaming platforms while reclining or sitting on the new armchairs. It's also an excellent area to read a book or chat with the other tenants. One of my favorite spaces. At the same time, everything mentioned above has a classic and impeccable style that gives off an air of tranquility and comfort that I've rarely experienced in a hostel. Lastly, and best of all, is the attentiveness of the hosts. They are always attentive and willing to help with anything you need, improving and adding elements to the place to make your stay feel like being in your own home.
