Nice Place!!
We were wary of another "Backpackers" Hostel, since they seem to have the lowest standards of all hostels. We were pleasantly surprised! Cleanest one we ever saw! It was nice in every way and we recommend it. Big, bright sleeping dorms with high quality wooden bunk beds were a bonus, too. Super kitchen, super common room. Showers and facilities very good.

Clean, Fun and well located
I stayed here two nights. It was a great place to stay in a lovely town. The staff were really helpful, fed us for free in the bbq on the Sat night and were very welcoming. I highly recommend this hostel. The atmosphere was also great.

Best hostel yet!
Loved it! They treat you like family, and it's such a tight-knit community that I was choking back tears when I left (after only 2 days!). The facilities are gorgeous, the breakfast was delicious and very well priced (about $3 CAD), and the suppers were wonderful (we even had a free BBQ one night!). They kept everything super clean and tidy, and they were so accommodating I could hardly believe I was in a hostel. Only minor complaint would be that my bed was very rickety, and squeaked loudly at even the slightest movement. All in all, this was one of the best hostels I've stayed at, and i can't wait to go back!

Great
I was there, found it fantastic! Best kitchen I've ever seen in a hostel! (why don't they post a picture?) there are nice people and very nice rooms (exept there's someone snoring). first address I'd give to anybody that ask me for a hostel in canterbury.

FANTASTIC
I am a regular visitor of Kipps. Every time I return the staff are always welcoming. The beds are comfortable and already made up! Just like going home!! And of course the highlight of the week is when Luigi cookes some pasta al'italiano! You bring your own drinks and there is a sing song afterwards! It is GREAT, you can talk to the other people of all nationalities which adds to the wonderful atmosphere. I would say that it is also great if you want to go on a retreat! The cleanliness is impecable. THANK YOU KIPPS!

The homiest place
This is the homiest hostel I've been to -- it feels just like staying in someone's home. Staff are very friendly. The kitchen and bathrooms are spotless. It's small, but doesn't feel crowded.

I LOVE this hostel. I've never felt so welcome in a hostel so fast. It's really clean, has a big, well-equipped kitchen, and you can eat in the garden. Tip: buy your breakfast at the hostel, it's really good. The lounge is really helpful--I met so many friendly people there! :) The town is great, too. I'm in love with the town AND the hostel!
