UpTown Backpackers Dunedin - BBH

When I arrived in Dunedin I checked into Uptown Backpackers. I ended up staying for 2 months! Reason? Because its an awesome place to stay!! Great staff, a variety of different people to chill with and great services. Awesome showers, comfortable bunks, amazing kitchen, with free breakfast as well! And of coarse 2 months of being hooked on playing bowling on their Nintendo wii haha. The location is awesome, 2 min walk to supermarket and bus station, a convenience store on the corner and many shops and bars etc so close, especially Trojan Turkish kebab shop, I downed many of the meat chips and cheese lol. So if your wanting a memorable stay then stay here! Thank you to all the staff and other guests for the great memories.

Update: The business does not take ownership for the guests actions as this incident seems to have repeated. 8am walking to work having abuse yelled from what seemed to be the second level from intoxicated people not good and definitely not safe. Was walking to the library and was abused by people that gave off a homeless persona, than noticed they where drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes in what seemed to be the entrance to the business?

Staff was wonderful. I ended up staying a day more. They were very kind and helpful. It was also very clean. Perfect location. I missed the oven in the kitchen and the possibility to wash clothes. The rooms were not so bad except that there were no lockers for two guests and the beds were squeaky and not very comfortable.The hostel is also in the center so it can be noisy. I enjoyed my stay here though. That's why I stayed longer.
