Advantages: clean, open, spacious and friendly

Disadvantages: none

I stayed in the YHA in Wellington whilst backpacking in 2006/2007. I stayed there on a few occassions whilst using the kiwi experience bus.

I found the reception staff very friendly and helpful. They did not rush you and were happy to chat about the best places in town to visit and eat. They were also honestly interested in where else you have travelled and where you were heading, making you feel very welcome! they also happily joined us in the common room during the time off making it a very laid back atmosphere!

the kitchen in the YHA was very large, with plenty of room to store food int eh fridges and cuboards. It was also pretty cleaned and was one of the few hostels where i saw a real cleaner!!

The rooms in the hostel were also pretty clean and spacious for a hotel! you didnt feel like you were been crammed into a broom closet! The bedding was also all nice and fesh!

If you get a YHA discount card, you will also recieve money off every night you spend in a YHA hostel, its worth the investment if you are spending a lot of time in these hostels.

The hostel is within easy walking distance of the main town and it right next to the supermarket! a 10 minute walk will get you to a small beach and in the other direction will take you to the museum!

This was one of the best hostels i stayed in whilst in Wellington and i would definitley recommend this to other backpackers!

Summary: a great place to stay whilst in Wellington!
