Summary: Finally a hostel in new zealand that is able to provide the essentials: body wash in the showers, private light and outlet next to each bed, and even a curtain for privacy. A rare gem and the best one I have been to so far. Also really quiet and has a no smoking/vaping policy even in the courtyard
