Great stay. My capsule was well equipped with dual USB-A/C ports and not a speck of dust in sight. This place is beyond clean - like the love child of Ikea and a Japanese capsule hotel. I don’t really have any negatives to speak of. They have daily activities (some paid, some free), a huge kitchen with a much welcomed free food basket, and a cheap cafe/bar with a nice 10% discount to make it even cheaper. Nothing to complain about here.

Mostly positive!
The pros: My Queen Ensuite was excellent, similar to a room at a Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn Express, or Four Points. Surprisingly comfortable, if not a bit expensive considering its peers in the same price range. However, though there are several cheaper options for the same room type, they are primarily older hotels, and the LyLo is as new, clean, and inviting as they come. If they’d just decrease their rates a bit, it’d be well near perfect. Cons: No bus stop near the property, so it’s a bit of a walk, but not terrible (6-10 minutes). Inconvenient if you’re in a hurry, but I managed just fine. Staff are a mixed bag - some amazing, some average, and some beyond checked out and disinterested. I’ve managed several staff and I can safely say the manager here needs to do a performance review on some of the youngest of the crew, but otherwise this was an excellent stay.

MUCH BETTER than your typical hostel
Excellent capsule-style hostel with the most privacy you can hope for in a shared living arrangement. Capsules are well ventilated with an integrated fan, and the bedding was impeccably clean. Let’s face it - most hostels are stinky, and pretty gross. This one is an exception to that rule. From the rooms to the common areas to the bar/restaurant, everything was fresh, clean, and inviting. Good to see them putting on events and daily tours/activities - there was a lot to do, and some pretty good specials in the excellent Miss Lucy pub. Overall, this is Scandinavia-level comfort (IYKYK) and it’ll be my first pick when travelling to Auckland.
