    I had a fantastic experience staying at Hobson Lodge. The room arrangement was excellent, with comfortable beds that had curtains for added privacy. I loved having my own universal adapter and a locker for my belongings. The toilets and bathrooms were always clean, and having a hairdryer available was a nice touch. The check-in process was easy, and parking was available for a small fee. The facilities, including the full kitchen, were top-notch and well-maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful, making my stay even better. I highly recommend Hobson Lodge for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    The showers could have been cleaner, and some guests did not clean up after themselves in the kitchen and toilets.

    The value for money at this hotel was fantastic, with all the necessary facilities and friendly staff. The room was clean and comfortable, with ample storage and curtains for privacy. The location was ideal, just a short walk from popular attractions and the bus station.

    Food for breakfast could be improved with more variety and options.

    I recently stayed at a centrally located hotel in Auckland and got great value for my money. The room was clean and tidy, with a comfortable bed and plenty of power outlets. The staff were helpful and accommodating with my late check-in.

    Breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety and options.

    The facilities at Hobson Lodge were excellent, and I was particularly impressed by the helpfulness of one of the staff members. Additionally, the beds in the female-only room were equipped with curtains, providing plenty of privacy. I also appreciated the power sockets and night lamps near each bed, as well as the lockers for storing valuables. The location of the lodge was great too, making it convenient to explore the area. I had a comfortable and pleasant stay.

    Although my experience at Hobson Lodge was mostly positive, there were a couple of drawbacks. the kitchen/lounge area could have been cleaned more frequently, and it would have been beneficial to have a few hooks or shelves in the shower for convenience.

    As a solo traveler, I loved the central location, close to Queen Street and restaurants popular with students. The rooms and facilities were clean and well-maintained. The spacious kitchen had plenty of storage space, and there were computers available on each floor. The bunk beds had curtains for privacy, and there were ample power outlets with phone holders. The laundry facilities were well-maintained, and the two-door entry provided a sense of security. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    Felt very cared for, no reason to complain.

    During my recent stay at Hobson Lodge, I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms. The beds were cozy and each had its own curtain, socket, and light, providing a sense of privacy. The bathrooms were well-maintained, with plenty of toilets and showers available. The addition of hairdryers in the bathroom was a nice touch. The hostel also had a well-stocked kitchen, although it could get a bit crowded at times. The location just off the outskirts of town was convenient, allowing for easy access to the CBD. I had a great experience at Hobson Lodge and would definitely recommend it.

    I recently stayed at a hotel in Auckland and had a great experience. I was there for a few days and found that the location was perfect. It was close to Queen Street and lots of restaurants. The hotel was well-maintained and the staff were friendly and helpful. I loved the comfortable bed and quilt, and the curtains on the bunk beds provided extra privacy. The kitchen and lounge area were nice, and there were computers available for guests to use. The wifi was fast and stable, and there were power outlets by each bedside. I really enjoyed my stay at Hobson Lodge and would recommend it.

    I recommend this hotel.

    The rooms were clean and well-maintained, with ample storage options and curtains for privacy. The staff was friendly and helpful, making my stay pleasant. The location was convenient, with shops, supermarkets, and banks nearby.

    The check-in process was frustrating, with a hold placed on my credit card for one night even though I had already paid in full. Additionally, the hostel seemed to have several long-term guests, which affected the overall atmosphere and made it less enjoyable for short-term travelers like myself.
