Avoid this hostel if you can. Booked and paid for 1 family room $140 and didnt get much sleep. People screaming and shouting into the early hours, walls wafer thin, rooms hot and humid, bathroom dated and in need of upgrade. Overall, feel (in comparison to other accomodation) it was waaaay overrated.You dont get what you payn for in this instance.

We found the hostel facilities here to be perfectly decent but our two night stay was really marred by the bad attitude of the owner. In every interaction we had with him he was rude, unsmiling and weirdly accusatory and hostile, even though we had done nothing wrong and had nothing to complain about in turn. Other staff were friendly and helpful but with so many lovely places to stay in Paihia we'd recommend avoiding the bad atmosphere at Centabay Lodge.

Would only recommend to people under 25 / hardly got any sleep as walls are paper thin - might as well of been a curtain, noisy people in other rooms till 1.30am Facilities were not maintained very well & had to wait at least an hour or so each night to cook or get a table - tip do that at 5pm. Stayed at a number of lodges & caravan parks while in NZ, none were like this one. Lucky it was our first stay on our trip & would rate it as our worst experience in over a months travelling.

Everything seems to be a bit damp inside, but maybe that's just a Paihia thing...
