Super quiet and cozy. Got some good sleep and enjoyed my time here. Nice place out in the country where the owners live up top and the hostel is down below. Has a map where you can pin where you are coming from, which I did. I think that makes 4 people for Florida. They have a full kitchen available and a clothes washer. I think they have gotten less visitors post pandemic and I don’t normally write reviews but thought I’d let the pubic know this place is clean and I had a great time.

Nothing, it was the worst place I've ever stayed in.
I had to move room 3 times and the room I ended up with I had to clean up and make the bed. I will never stay there again.
The lodge is bright and colourful. We had our own bunk room which was close to the bathrooms. The kitchen was big with lots of utensils. Great location for anyone doing the Tongariro Crossing or exploring the National Park. Adjacent bar was fun to pop in to and staff at both the hostel and bar were very friendly. Can highly recommend catching sunrise, the stars and sunset.
This was excellent for the cost. It is a 'backpacker' type accomodation but was clean, cosy, everythinng worked well, staff were very helpful. If you are on a budget you will be very pleased, if you just like to save you will be very happy here. If you want luxury look elsewhere. But clean comfortable quiet handy, this is great. We are mid 60's and could easily pay more but like to save and we liked it and would stay here again.
Typical YHA backpacker hostel: spacious kitchen/lounge area, many bookable activities, helpful staff.
Clean room with beds made. Towels provided. Friendly helpful staff and excellent security measures meant I felt safe. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast at the cafe was not cheap but worth every penny. Delicious and nicely laid out cafe.
Very convivial and friendly atmosphere in the spacious kitchen. The location is great, very close to the Tongariro Alpine crossing. There is a nice little pub right beside it! It was so nice to have a family room with a private bathroom! We can hop on a shuttle right outside the youth hostel.
Friendly, extra nice with a piece of fruit and lollies as you check in. Happy place to stay. Lovely and clean. Great location. Had everything I needed. Great water pressure in shower. Spacious. Lovely decor. Has good deals -price suits my budget.
