Maybe it was my fault - i did not expect that there was not going to be airconditioning in the room. But thats probably me.

Beautiful view from kitchen but everything else was awful. Never been so hot in a dorm. Why air conditioning in the whole hostel but not the rooms? No towel included. And one of the 2 fridges was out so groceries stuffed in one fridge. Super expensive.

Place was very good for any kind of traveller- good location, nice and quiet. The shared cooking area was well organized but you need to be okay with different smells!

Haka House was a great hostel to stay at. It was very clean and the kitchen area was large with lots of storage area for non fridge food. The views were amazing ... You look straight onto Lake Tekapo. The room had nice privacy curtains and a large storage spot where you can lock up your belongings. The hostel is in a central location so you can walk to restaurants and shops easily. And there's a large parking lot not too far away to park if you don't get a spot right in front.

Misrepresented in Expedia as a hotel. It is a hostel. Room was 10 x 10 feet. The exterior window was held partially closed with duct tape. The shower consisted of a metal pan with a curtain which surrounded one by 360 degrees. Fine for young people, but not us retirees, especially when advertised as a hotel.
