Very good

Rotorua is a pretty small town so you can walk to pretty much everywhere in the “downtown” area. Can walk to start your tours and shuttles within 5 minutes.
Private room was big with good facilities. Nice comfortable bed. Hostel itself is huge and has good common areas including a very big kitchen. Staff were friendly. In good location walking distance to bars, cafes etc.
