LyLo Auckland, an EVT Hotel

Very busy and vibrant hostel with a bar attached. The bed was comfy but the room was lacking furniture - there was a chair but no proper table. Shared washrooms were well kept by everyone. A little distance from the main shopping area but near to sky tower (where you can get a chartered bus from the airport). Don't bother to do pre check-in online - they asked for a card for deposit / incidentals, and the card got charged for the rooms even though I have paid trip.com. Although the staff was prompt to do refunds, but lost like $20 on unnecessary fx rates and credit card fees. You will need to give your details onsite anyways, so save the time on something else. It would be better if the staff were more welcoming, but I guess it is tough with so many guests to handle every minute.

The place is perfect solo travelers. They have a big kitchen and nice location.

All good except the room got very cold in the morning not sure the air conditioner is on or no heater provided, overall is a pleasant experience, very clean and staff is aware that we come in the wee hours around 5am and he standby for us🥹 thank you
