I had a strange experience at this hostel. For some reason, the staff decided to clean the bathroom in the dorm way past 10pm. It kept me awake and gave the dorm a strong smell of chlorine.

Cheap and not particularly good, you get what you pay for. Not the cleanest facilities, but privacy curtains for bottom bunk beds. Staff is very nice and helpful, however it seems that new staff give out incorrect information at times.

Loved the fact that it is the Centre of Auckland, close to the bus depot, convenient location. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

I stayed in 2 different rooms. The 1st was a 10 bed mixed dorm which was disappointing and didnt bear any resemblance to pictures on the booking site. Lockers were small-medium and had to provide own padlock. It was next to the kitchen where people stayed up being loud to the small hours. The 2nd was a 8 bed womens dorm, much neater, smaller lockers but looked like a key given if requested. Staff were initially frazzled and a bit defensive but got better. At the price was what I expected.

Good value for money, great location, just my friend had a bag stolen from the bag storage area next to reception, so security side of things needs to have a bit of a rethink.

Ok hostel. Our room had one set of working plugs for 6 people. The other two plugs in the room didn’t work.

Great location, literally opposite the Sky Tower. Feels secure here. Great value and has everything you need for a hostel stay. My son and daughter have practically stayed at the metro adventurer backpackers hostel on and off for a year so my husband and I have come out from the UK to join them for Christmas. This is our second stay here as we travel around New Zealand.

Female Dorm of 6 did not have enougg space for keeping louggage. lockers were ver narrow, so everybody's stuff was spread around making it hard get to your own things. Bed was uncomfortable, I could feel the mattress spings.

One of the worst hostels I've ever stayed at, and I've logged 75 stays on Hostelworld alone. Filthy, dingy, grim, defeating.

good value hostel--not especially clean throughout but a great location and good price ultimately makes it a place to recommend

Hostel sale et sombre, avec très peu de fenêtres. Les équipements de cuisine sont usés jusqu’à leur dernier souffle et l’équipe semble complètement dépassée. Plusieurs problèmes d’organisation : d’abord placé dans une chambre, puis déplacé dans une autre, réservation pour une chambre de 6 lits mais finalement logé dans une chambre de 8… Franchement, je déconseille.

Superfreundliches Personal dort, flexibler Checkin und -out, absolut gute Lage wenn man in die Stadt will, oder auch mit dem Intercity am Skytower ankommt. Mir fällt nur ein Nachteil ein: in meinem Zimmer (#1) ließ sich das Fenster nicht öffnen. Wer es gewöhnt ist mit offenem Fenster zu schlafen, vor allem mit etlichen Leuten im Raum, der wird sich vielleicht daran stören. Ansonsten war alles Topp für mich.
