It was as expected for a backpackers, overall cleaner. The instructions in the shower make for a dry floor. Every sign is clear and uses inclusive language, encouraging thought of others, which I like.

The freezer was so full, I couldn’t fit my ice pack in.

No breakfast provided. Excellent bed and very cosy duvet on cold night.

Unit 19 accessible bathroom needs some maintenance work. -Shower rose unit very wobbly. -Vinyl lifting and bubbled in walk-in shower. -Vinyl badly stained by leaking shower controls.

kitchen well equipped. Awesome apple crumble :)

The location and staff were great. Good place to meet people. Nice common area.

WiFi barely worked. I didnt really understand the kitchen cleaning time at 10am. It made people rush to get their breakfast in.

super social hostel. Would highly recommend and would stay again with a really nice outdoor area, bunk beds are super comfortable and a unique touch is the hot chocolate pudding and ice cream served each night!

A super hostel, very clean and welcoming lounge & outdoor spaces. The chocolate pudding made it even more special! I would stay here again for sure.

Great, cosy, friendly place to stay. 15 minutes walk from the coach station, 15 minutes from the centre of town, close to loads of hikes, but also very peaceful in the evening. All the staff were really amazing and helpful, particularly as I missed the only bus from Picton and the guys rearranged my stay no worries. I found this hostel to be the most friendly place I have stayed so far in NZ and was really easy to make friends and find other people to do hikes and things with. Also there's free pudding every night! Really can't fault this place. Thank you to all at Tasman Bay.

great place, great vibe, great people
