Amazing Experience!!!
Liked: I really enjoyed staying about 3 weeks at this hostel!!! The location is very good. There are many buses, so you can go around there easily. One sushi is my favorite. Only 2 minutes walking from jailhouse! You can enjoy nice sushi cheaply.The accommodation is always clean and comfortable. You can enjoy interesting inside and spend your cozy time. There are 2 adorable cats Pumpkin and Onion. They’re so sweet. I bought their cute postcards!The worthy of special mention is the wardens(the staffs. They are called that! )They were very sweet and friendly. I’m still learning English, but all of them always were nice to me. I enjoyed movie nights with other prisoners and wardens!! That’s my sweet memory. I’ve already missed them.If I come back to Christchurch, I’ll stay again definitely:)

Really enjoyed staying at this...
Liked: Clean; Staff were delightful and very helpful
Disliked: Bed mattress a little worn and uneven; TV too small for current high corner position; TV would be better placed on the wall facing the bed side which would also be a better position to avoid neck strains and stiffness.
