Kiwi Basecamp

Shame about the extremely rude American they have working on the reception. Everything else about the hostel was great but he entirely ruined our stay with his bad attitude and extremely poor customer service, telling us that at the price we paid we didn't deserve to get good customer service.

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

Shame about the extremely rude American they have working on the reception. Everything else about the hostel was great but he entirely ruined our stay with his bad attitude and extremely poor customer service, telling us that at the price we paid we didn't deserve to get good customer service. Funny how every other hostel we have been to has managed it!

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

I visited this place at a very sad time few days after the earthquake so some facilities were not working like toilettes and showers upstairs, but the staff made a beautiful job by allowing us to have these facilities working downstairs.
They also arranged for fixing dinner for the guests. Considering the difficulties they encountered they made a hell of a job! They even gave me a ride to take the bus to reach the nakedbus stop out of town at Hornby. I recommend this hostel.

This is a Trusted Review. Why?

I stayed two weeks after the February earthquake for two days. The crew started to do meals for everyone and it made me feel at home with friends from the first night on. I can only recommend this place, its really friendly and its small, witch I prefer to a big one. There wasen't much to do after the quake, but it was great to stay in the courtyard to read, relax or chat, take a bike for a ride or watch a movie. And the best not to forget: The fresh bread in the morning is unbeatable!
