It's ok to stay just few days. It's very calm.
It's not a hostel for people who want to meet backpackers or travellers, it's almost an hostel to people who works or who stay just few days on Auckland. They are a kitchen and a place to watch TV but it's on basement so it's not very cosy. They don't have a staff, so no body to give you tips on the city.
But the hostel is clean, kitchen have all to cooking and it's not far to the down and the harbour.
