“Homely hostel experience”
Me and my mate had the best time at D&D backpackers, the hostel had a very homely feel to it with tons of social space and a bunch of games to play. The owners and staff were super helpful when booking shuttles to taranaki with their service. Its only a ten minute walk to the seafront and into town… more

“Lovely hostel”
It was very lovely. The kitchen was a bit run down but had everything you need. The bathroom and room was very clean. Sadly there was not a lot hot water coming from the shower and the water tasted very sandy. The atmosphere was amazing and I enjoyed my stay very much.
