    A quiet hostel in Railay

    Lockers are broken. Would be nice to have drinking water provided.

    Great little find for cheap accomodation at Railay. Looks like the only other hostel option is a youth/party hostel just up the road so happy to find this one was nice and quiet. Rooms were a decent size and dorm/bathroom was cleaned daily. AC was nice and cold. Staff were friendly enough. It’s part of a resort so the grounds are quite nice and there’s even a good looking pool to cool off in.

    Bathroom shower drain was clocked and water was up during the shower.I think that could be fixed by proper cleaning.Walls thin so you can hear your neighbours.

    Room very specious and super clean.comfortable bed,kettle and fridge inside the room,additional water provided by cleaning service.Good location,on the other side of main beach which is much more quiet.Shops and restaurants around.Nice pool.

    Comfortable but glad to have the dorm to myself

    Very little space; would be a tight fit if the room was full. Shelves in the bathroom would be appreciated. The property consistently has WiFi issues however.

    Got extremely lucky with the female dorm and had it to myself that night. Dorm room was clean. Bathroom was roomy and clean. AC has limited hours but wasn't a problem. Buffet breakfast with good range of options, but more expensive than other places nearby.

    The stuff at the reception wasn't nice, and did not speak English well, which is hard to make a conversation.

    The place is quite.

    The only tiny thing is that the room was at the very end of the property but it wasn’t a very long walk or needed to climb stairs. Also the security box in the room had the wrong key and was very small.

    I stayed for a night only but it was a nice place. I read some comments about the place that made me doubt in the beginning but is actually very nice, very clean and they even have a swimming pool. I think some reviews criticized the staff was rude but I think is just a language thing, I felt they made a lot of effort to speak English so for me this wasn’t a problem.

    Staff are quiet rude and unhelpful, not creating a good atmosphere. you’re given a microfibre towel which dries nothing, not great when you’re sharing a room with others. Tried to charge me 480 Baht just to clean and hang up clothes, ready at 6pm next day. I went next door for 50 Baht.

    Great for meeting people but that’s about it.

    The cleaning lady makes only the toilet and doesn’t change bed sheets, no fresh towels. The personal on the registration desk is quite rude

    Amazing location, very beautiful view. Far from all the noisy place. There is a pool and buffet that makes your stay very pleasant. The room was always half full (I stayed for one week). It was perfect, but if there is more people it would be too tense.

    Nothing really - perhaps the fact there is no TV but in general nothing to not like.

    We loved the size of our room and specifically the location. Right in the middle of Railay and you have all you need around you. The resort in general is really luxury with a nice pool to relax in and a gorgeous restaurant if you need.

    It’s not a social hostel, more like a resort with some shared rooms for bagpacker. and there was no sign or name anywhere so I had my struggles finding it. It’s just like a random reception where they check you in.

    The hostel was very tidy and comfortable. Where it was located was also very good, but railay is not that big anyway :) The pool was also one of the highlights there.

    the staff were horrendous, very unwilling to help, extremely rude and just clearly did not want to be there. they also didn’t speak English very well which obviously is not ideal when you work in a hotel/hostel

    the property itself was lovely, good location and a very nice resort, it’s just a shame about the awful staff members that we had the misfortune of encountering
