- Un emplacement incroyable en plein centre de Queenstown, rendant l'accès à n'importe quoi rapide
- Des espaces vraiment propres nettoyés quotidiennement
- Un personnel extrêmement sympathique et très disponible
- Et c'est un excellent lieu pour faire de belles rencontres !
C'est une auberge globalement calme mais qui ne manque pas de gens qui aiment sortir de temps en temps ! Elle n'est pas surpeuplée, ce qui permet de prendre le temps de vraiment rencontrer les gens et développer des relations sincères.
Bref, bien que le prix soit légèrement plus cher que le reste des auberges de Queenstown, je trouve que ce dernier est amplement justifié par le confort et la qualité des installations que propose cette auberge !
