great location, in front of new region street, close to city center. facilities are good, there are several bathrooms and toilets, never waited for one. kitchen is big, didn't use them but I think it's enough for backpacker to cook and storage their foods in fridge. I living in room for single, got a locker wardrobe and a window inside. I think there should be a table inside but there isn't, not big deal. the window was tricky, I don't.know how.to open or close it, it's like a trapdoor, maybe during winter it would be cold.

Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Man ist direkt mitten in Dunedin und kann den Tag gleich starten. Auch sehr cool ist das kostenlose Frühstück, was in der Früh angeboten wird.
