My stay at the grape vine were the best weeks in my whole three months in NZ. Thanks to the best hostel parents and all the cool guys staying there with me.

I wouldn't stay there again. old, run down, cold to many people. I moved to a nice small homestay after three days here.

This hostel was pretty run down, and all in all, very depressing. I moved to a different hostel after two days.

Warm and welcoming, this was my base whilst I tried to earn a few bucks to continue travelling on the South Island. I met my girlfriend Anja here, too. We're still together after 10 years. Greetings to Rob and Diane.
