German Backpacker - Sarah's story
You are in Rotorua and looking for a Accommodation? I got the opportunity to stay at Rock Solid Backpacker Hostel for a few days and I can absolutely recommend it.
The Staff is really friendly, patient, good organized and always helpful if you need anything. Everything is nice and clean and the rooms are really comfy. They have a Movie Night every week, which is a great opportunity to meet new people. I also really enjoyed the cozy hostel lounge and had funny ping-pong matches with other Hostel Guests. In the Building is also a climbing hall (you get a great discount if you are staying at the hostel) and a Cinema, which is perfect for bad weather days. It was comfortable to book the Activities straight on the reception. I also found it pretty convenient that the Hostel is located in the Centre of Rotorua, so it was really easy to explore the City.
I will definitely come back!
