BUG review
Go Global is located right above an enormous Irish pub, Finn MacCuhal’s, on Taupo’s main nightlife street. Years ago it was a hotel, and traces like old radiators in the rooms and tile bathrooms are still evident. It’s a pretty basic place and could be better-maintained. One nice touch is an absolutely enormous outdoor deck that looks over the town park and a little slice of the river.
About BUG's hostel reviews
This hostel was visited by one of BUG's team of hostel inspectors who write independent reviews and assess a star rating based on an objective assessment criteria.
We show up unannounced at hostels to write honest and unbiased hostel reviews. Many of BUG's reviews now feature videos and photo slideshows. BUG never receives payment for listing any establishment and BUG's researchers never accept free accommodation in exchange for favourable reviews.

It's been a year ago that I stayed there for one night. I had heard before that Taupo Central Backpackers was just terrible, so I went to the other very central one in Taupo. I remember a friendly atmosphere, a great location... Just a good place to stay!
