The location was prime, though it was a bit difficult out to find the entrance as the hostel and reception aren’t on the ground floor. But it was on the waterfront and smack in the middle of a bunch of restaurants and shops with easy access to the ferry system.

Very quiet location, essentially in the heart of Paihia but not busy at all. Clientele of all ages not just young backpackers. Wooden bunk beds meant no squeaking beds when moving. 12pm check-in rather than usual 3pm

What a lovely, restful place! A very welcoming experience! The kids loved the dogs and pool, and it was so safe for them to run around and play.
