"Conveniently located opposite the I-site where the bus stops at. Friendly staff. Cheap dorm room. Youthful crowd with a few long termers. Wifi is only available in the lounge area. Wifi was spotty at times but worked well. Good fully stocked kitchen. Free coffee and tea. The bathroom is not lit very well and the door on the male bathrooms was broken off, but I'm sure it will be fixed soon."

All Seasons Holiday Park

All Seasons Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent
"The room was very clean and comfortable, and it came with dishes and bowls—but no pots. Since the only nearby restaurant closes early, we had to drive over 20 minutes into town to buy food to cook ourselves. Unfortunately, we didn’t realize until after washing all the ingredients that pots need to be rented from the reception for NZD 10. Luckily, a kind young couple from a campervan lent us theirs, otherwise we would have gone hungry that night! Overall, the location is not the most convenient for meals or transport, but the nearby hiking trails are truly beautiful. And if you’re brave enough, you can even head out at night to look for wild glowworms."
