empty summer
I really enjoyed my time here. The staff was very helpful and I had a whole room to myself as there were very few tourists when I was visiting.

Best location ever!
Best location ever, right next to cafe, Resturanta, bars, dairy, liquor store and cafes. 5 mins walk to the wharf where the ferry departs, tour pick ups, central town and supermarket. Super friendly staff. The super king size bed was great too! The lodge is just a bit dated but the price was fair.

Paihia
The staff were friendly and fun in the evenings but it's definitely a quiet hostel. The beds weren't the most comfy, pack mosquito spray! Plenty of bars and food places around. Super close to the beach which I loved

A place to relax and get away
This is in a unique and historical location. Nice and quiet location. Features outdoor jacuzzi, foot baths and movie area While kitchen is small for a criwd, the daily meals were well worth spending the money and not cooking...accommodating all types of dietary issues Nice place for some solitude
