Seasonal Work can be tough but the fun you have in the hostel makes it worthwhile 023, 2 Jun 2011 00:00:00 +1200 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/321532 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/222144 The first place that, during travelling, really felt like a home away from home. The atmosphere is relaxed but lively. There are always people around up for a talk or an activity. The staff do a great job at finding work for you and make sure you're doing ok. Everything you need (bars,shops etc) are nearby so you have a great time while making money! 010, 1 Mar 2011 00:00:00 +1300 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/222144 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/214696 Never expected the highlight of my trip to be a hostel in hastings! It was worth apple picking 6 days a week for all the fun I had here 003, 15 Jan 2011 00:00:00 +1300 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/214696 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/321536 I came to Hastings looking for work and am really happy I ended up at the Rotten Apple - this place is awesome! Will sorted me with a job (for decent money) within days of getting here and also gave me advice on getting a bank account and IRD number. Jason (the owner) does a great job of getting everyone involved and making sure you have a good time... I can guarantee that once you're here; you won't want to leave! Cheers guys!;) 045, 1 Nov 2010 00:00:00 +1300 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/321536 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/321535 It is my first week in New Zealand and I come to Rotten Apple.

The harvest air hangs thick with the funk of labour, but spacey communal areas, a big-screen TV, pool table reading room and tidy dorms are saving graces" 035, 1 Sep 2006 00:00:00 +1200 http://www.rottenapple.co.nz/webapps/i/23854/81369/88546
