Egmont Eco Leisure Park & Backpackers

Good location. A simple and decent value hostel.

This hostel is very affordable and the shared kitchen areas were average and ok to use but the overall campground buildings and family units are very run down both outside and inside. There was also a continual bad smell which smelled like very dirty washing and body odour. There were also long term tenants in the room next to us and we could literally smell a bad odour coming out of the room The actual nature part of the campgrounds outside was quite pretty and the location in terms of getting to the city centre was a short drive which was helpful. The check in was very old school with it taking a long time but the staff person who served us was friendly enough. The entire property really does need a good clean and spruce up.

Nice backpacker manager giving me a whole dorm room to myself to give me privacy
