I though I swore off hostels, but staying in the pod was an amazing experience. It was mostly older and/or relaxed people staying in the pods, so I was able to get my rest. It was nice to still get the hostel experience in the sense of meeting interesting strangers and then when I was ready to sleep i could just put in my earplugs and isolate myself in the queen size pod. The room I stayed in had 4 pods, we had a shared kitchen. there were a couple of toilets and bathrooms in the hallway that was shared with other pod rooms, and they were kept very clean. Downstairs was a bigger shared kitchen that was very complete. did most of my cooking downstairs, but it was nice to have a simple kitchen in the room to just make a sandwich or coffee.

The hostel was located near the bus hub of Queenstown, so it's very convenient if you're travelling by bus or by plane since the airport bus stops very close by. The city center is not that close though, but it's still reachable comfortably on foot. The staff was lovely and helpful, and they maintained the place very well. The pod itself was spacious, and there was ample of space to put my smaller personal space inside the pod that didn't take up bed space. The kitchen was very well equipped, including a boiling water tap, and maintained clean, including a stash of towels that were kept renewed. The lounge also felt quite cozy.

While the pod was spacious, the room could be a bit too narrow, even for 4 people occupany. There was no elevator (at least that I knew of) and to reach the door there were multiple steps, so it's definitely not recommended to travel on a large suitcase to this hostel. The key to my door could be rather tricky to operate, so I was also quite wary of disturbing my neighbors in the night time. Also I think there should be more hanging hooks/spots, because while I appreciate the current ones, it was difficult to hang towels and jackets at the same time.

Location is perfect, so close to everything! Staff were amazing, I got a little lost due to road works and the girl who I phoned was so helpful. Also the Welsh fella (whose name I don't know sorry) is the friendliest, most helpful man ever! All staff were so accommodating and lovely. Was probably the most comfortable bed I've slept in for a while, and the pod was very spacious, with a decent amount of storage.

There isn't really much not to like, the kitchen floor got a little sticky towards the end of the day, but this was cleaned and grand. It was overall a great hostel to stay in

The accommodation is conveniently located, accessible by public transport (bus), and within walking distance to supermarkets, outdoor equipment stores, restaurants, and lakeside walking attractions. The bunk beds in the backpacker room are sturdy, with curtains for privacy. The bedside lamp and USB sockets are very thoughtful and convenient. The staff are friendly and kind, the common areas are comfortable and well-equipped. During breakfast, someone (presumably a staff member) even provided free cherries, lovely! :)

The accommodation only has stairs, which can be challenging for travelers with large luggage. However, the staff were very considerate, asking if I needed help and assisting with my bags. I'm very grateful!

Very modern and clean. The double pods were very large and comfortable with charging outlets and storage at the top of the bed. Free parking outside was a big plus considering the parking situation in Queenstown! Our room had a patio which was a nice addition.

We stayed in the 4 double pod room and having 8 people in the space was not ideal as there was a kitchenette and individuals on different schedules. There were also not enough toilets for the guests, the layout was confusing, and the key did not work easily in the door to the room. The pods also got quite warm. I would still recommend this property if it’s the best price, not sure I would stay in the double pod room again though.

I loved this hostel. Great patio, excellent clean kitchen, easily accessible bathrooms & showers. Great wifi and location close to all the things you need/want.

I didn't like the fire alarm going off at 4am and having to go outside and stand around but at least it wasn't cold or raining. Not much you can really do in that situation but maybe some feedback from staff about what to expect / what was going on would've been nice considering the hour. No one knew anything and no one said anything or spoke up. It was a bit weird.

-Immaculately cleaned every day. -Steaming hot, super clean showers with ‘power-washer’ water pressure. -Super friendly staff -Awesome location -COMFY beds, and solid structures…no swaying in a metal bunk bed every time your bunk mate turns over. -great kitchen, several fridge/freezers and pantry storage space, plenty of cooking utensils -awesome chill out lounge with great views and a terrace. -on-site laundry LSS: very much worth the money. Just be careful on the indoor stairs if they’ve recently been mopped💀😂

Amazing location, the friendliest staff ever and so helpful. Easy to get to grips with the way things work, coming as a first time hosteller! Clean and tidy, cleaned every day. Welcoming environment, great staff recommendations and more than happy to help. If you need it :)

The first step going up to rooms 1-4 is steeper than the others which took some getting used to, maybe a warning there would be useful for older travellers? Didn’t impact my stay much at all. Would definitely stay again :)

The location is perfect, at the end of the main street. You can walk to all the attractions, supermarkets, and restaurants in Queenstown. The staff is very friendly. The room has a beautiful view. The facilities are complete, and the bed is more comfortable than expected.

It would be better if the shower light was not motion-activated. You have to move around a lot, or it will be dark while you shower. Then you have to open the glass door to wave the light back on.

location was pretty good, slightly away from the town centre from all the noise but still within a walkable distance. pods and lockers were allocated, they were clean and provided privacy. loving the toilets, super clean and comfortable to use.

kitchen and luggage room were upstairs from the ground floor but no complaints. it has what I needed for a night’s stay
