Base Bay of Islands - Pipi Patch Paihia Reviews

Normally I'm not really into the party hostels, but since some of the people on the same bus decided to go there and because of the BBQ organised, I decided to give it a try. The hostel is located less than 100 meters from the beach of Paihia. The rooms are very reasonable and clean. This hostel is really a partyplace. Every afternoon the bar area gets crowded and a lot of people are enjoying the (very good) BBQ. Of course, there's a constant noise of people shouting till late at night, but since the bar only allows people to drink inside after 11pm, it's still possible to catch an early night sleep. Only downer for me was that I had to change rooms in the middle of my stay, although I'd booked ahead.
