Awesome! The location is the best of Auckland, moreover a new countdown was just opening! The staff were so friendly, they helped me to organize all my trip in NZ… They were calling for me to book an other hostels and reserve all my bus.. I was in 2 others backpackers the night before and the kitchen was closed at 22pm.. Here you can cooking all the night! Definitely awesome!!

Awesome location and has all you need. Highly recommended if you are not into staying in a huge hostel like nomads and base.

The curtains in the rooms need to be thicker, or another layer as the street lights shone through very easily. I used the second floor bathroom, there needs to be a dresser/buffet or similar against the window… because the doors open the wrong way to each other in the showers and leave no space to manevour. There needs to be a second hook on the walls of each dry space in the shower

This hostel was great. All the staff was really friendly and super helpful with
recommendations about where to go and how to get started in Auckland. The atmosphere
was perfect as well, everyone is so welcoming and itʼs really helpful that the receptionists
are from all around the world and speak many languages. Especially in the beginning
when I just arrived they made sure I felt at home and comfortable. The hostel is located
right in the center of town, itʼs clean and comfortable and most of all safe.
From the second I arrived I was looked after and there was always someone to give me
advice about organizational things like getting an IRD number, bank account etc. As well
as planning activities and recommending things to do, places to visit. Straight away I was
informed about all different ways to travel around and get the most out of my stay in NZ.
They played a big roll in making my trip unique and it was great to get some insider tips off
of other travelers.
All in all my stay at the Surf ʻNʼ Snow was fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone.
