This seems to be the only hostel in central Akoroa, and the price is accordingly as good as you can get for the location. The beds were good, but the bathrooms definitely need some updating. Also, all the furniture in the garden could be a lot more comfortable. Lastly, the self check in system seems to work reasonably, but it definitely feels like there are some security issues because it is easy to enter as a stranger. I could've stayed in my bed for free, no one ever checked that I payed for a bed.

Horrible experience. I arrived to mess and litter all over the kitchen and rotting food in the fridge. I even recognised the litter and mouldy food from a review posted a week ago - that is how long it has been sat there. The place was freezing with a broken window and broken door both banging in the wind and not closing properly. I left within an hour.
Has its ups and downs but for this pricepoint in Akaroa 4 star worthy. After all its a cheap solution to sleep. So no fancy stuff, no electricity outlets near the bead or a modern bathroom. Just a simple but somehow lovely solution to stay in this nice little town.
(1)we didnt receive room access code once we have received the confirmtion from the backpackers.We had to wait to get help from the staff even we informed our arrival time will be after 9pm and we are travelling with a baby. (2) we came to a messy room and staff who showed us the room was going to leave us in that room.The bed linen were crumbled and one jacket was lying on the sofa.Then we asked her to clean the room.We waited outside for an hour but all She done, was just tidied up the sheets but didn't clean the room.There were human hairs(including pubic hair in the toilet zink), died insectes,dirty curtain blinds,left over food crumbs including chocolates,used toilet roll and dust everywhere.We even waited around one hour outside for her to clean the room as staff said she was not told about the booking.We have a 2 yr old and it was that time of the night so we ended up staying at that place.The next morning we showed it to the staff and she aplogized and pleaded not give bad comments. These bad reviwes are so true and I regret that I did't read the reviwes before I booked in that backpackers.Their furniture is outdated.I don't know how they can still run a place like that in New Zealand without meeting any standards!!!
Yes the three of us enjoyed our stay very homely
Lovely place to stay. Comfortable, very casual, would come again

Just filthy place. It was far from clean. I didn't think anyone clean there.
