YHA Auckland International

Very nice and friendly staff ready to help you with any question you have. There's also lots of information around the reception area and kitchen. Laundry service quite cheap and includes soap! No handwash facilities though. Kitchen is big and well equipped. 20-25 min walk to Britomart, next to K'Road. The less positive aspects: tags for food identification are stickers and need to be placed on all items, it seems a little too much non-recyclable waste. The other thing is that is quite warm in the bedrooms even if fans are provided, and I'm usually not bothered by the heat at night

The hostel was really nice, the staff is super friendly and helpful and the people are very cool. There are lockers in the rooms and it's always clean and tidy. The kitchen is well equipped and big.

the rooms were very hot we were lucky to get two fans so it was okay but the common room was very hot

The 2 rooms we stayed in felt small for 2 people and we get on well! Could do with some overhead storage space and more hooks or rails to hang things. We were using the door closing mechanism to hang a wet towel which is ok if the door doesn't need to be opened! What about a picture in the rooms to make them seem less clinical? The issue with cleanliness mainly relates to the odd bit of toilet paper or such that remained on the hallway floor for more than 12 hours. A bit of random 'spot cleaning' outside the official cleaning time would be beneficial.
