YHA Nelson - Backpackers

Great and clean place. Awesome and helpfull staff. Kitchen is well equiped

Parking really not available. Everything else good quality backpackers type place

Very well-managed, clean, efficient, and welcoming hostel!

Apart from saying was free parking included was fine but not true re parking which is by number plate & only free 5pm-8am & then first hour free & $2 per hour but a max of 3 hours so need to find somewhere else if want more than 3 hrs. Otherwise is central spot & good.

This property is very safe and clean. The staff is friendly and understanding. Kitchen are is big and kept clean, no odours or anything. I stayed in a private room, for having my own space is always my priority. For me personally the space was too small, although I could move, but I prefer bigger spaces. Also because I am tall. Many guests from different countries, yet sometimes not very friendly. Socializing is very debatable. Rooms can be very humid during summer, and the fan is very weak, but the heater is very powerful. Coin laundry - 4$ per each machine, 1$ per powder. Very easy to use. You can get everywhere easily on foot. Internet is ok, but could be faster. Free internet offers only 1 GB per 24 hours. 2$ per unlimited data for 1 day, 10$ per unlimited data for 1 week. You get almost 1 TB of data, which is necessary for my personal needs. Overall it is alright, if you will rather mind your own business.
