Drifter Christchurch

2.0 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (68)
"We traveled as a family - four kids and mother in law, and got two suites. the outside of the building is very nice, but its next to a run down building so we were a little skeptical when we saw it. But the fears were misplaced. Great location, inside was great. More set up for the backpacker crowd - lots of rooms to meet or meet up with people. Great vibe. But it wasn't at all bad for families."

Rucksacker Backpacker Hostel

2.0 star property
7.2 out of 10, Good, (13)
"Stayed 2nights in private double. Late check in email stated room would be unlocked - it wasn't. Nobody answered the phone. We had to stretch in the window to unlock the door. The room stank. Really horrible old damp smell. Next day we were locked out of our room with our belongings inside "pending payment" - payment had been taken online already. Took 5 phone calls to get keys to our room sorted."

Point Break Backpackers

2.0 star property
6.4 out of 10, (30)
"The location of this place was great, and the staff were friendly. However the kitchen was dirty and had very few usable utensils or tools, the locks on the bathrooms didn't work, some of the lights wouldn't turn on, and all of the surfaces in our room were slightly sticky. Also, although I realise this isn't something the management have any control over, my children were exposed to language that I was extremely uncomfortable with from other guests."

"Poor environmental hygiene and unfriendly services provided by the female staff: 1) Towel of the precedent was displaced on the corridor to ny room. Nobody did any warship in the pantry and bathroom. 2) I had requested for the login and password of the WiFi for several times but the unhelpful female staff in the reception of the office insisted to offer any assistance.

4.5 star property
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (329)
"The Hotel is close to the bus hub but on a Sunday evening, there's nothing going on around except for a few relatively empty restaurants. Wouldn't want to arrive at night. It's worse since the lobby is closed after 4:00 PM weekends. If arriving during the day, the location is convenient but I liked the location in Kilmore much better. The room is very nice and well equipped. "
