    The fact that you have to leave 1.000 baht for a key that is not even a card, it’s just a normal key 🔑, and I stayed there for one night only. I choose a bedroom and they told me that they were going to give me another one and it was a block away from the place where you check in. It is really in the center of the downtown so it’s REALLY noisy at night. You can hear everything from the streets.

    Good AC, clean

    We booked for an 8 person bed room but there was 14 people in our room. The beds were extremely hard, worse than any other hostel we have stayed in.

    Great location and cleaners came everyday

    No curtains on beds, room window faced an alleyway with no curtains, loud music till early in the morning from beach club (but understandable with location)

    Comfortable mattresses. I was in a female room of 4 which was spacious. Only there for one night so not much to say about the property except it’s old and still being worked on but it’s a great location.

    We booked a 8 bed shared dorm but when we arrived there were no beds left, we were moved to a different hostel and location and into a 4 bed dorm, location was good and there was a balcony included but it was not what we were expecting. The bathrooms were not the cleanest and beds were like rocks. There was not much privacy due to the walls being as thin as paper, you could hear everything. Lockers didn’t open, but there was a friendly cat and overall pretty decent value for money.

    Arrived at 3.30 and our room wasn’t ready, check in was from 2 so had to wait for it to be cleaned. The room was super basic, didn’t really look like the pictures. No kettle/fridge. Said you got fresh water daily but we got given it once during our 4 night stay. We had geckos in our room the whole time and centipedes which made it really difficult to sleep. Wi-fi wasn’t great either

    The pool was really good, big size and had a fun water slide

    Very loud at night with music and partying, bathroom was not very clean and all the walls were covered in ants. Checked in at 2 but told to come back at 3 as they were changing the ac unit, when they left the room, they left it open with all of our belongings in it. Given no quilt for the bed just a very paper thin sheet. It was only one night stay for us luckily, I wouldn’t want to do anymore if I could help it with a shared bathroom.

    Good location for the beach and where we needed to be, not great with regard to being on a loud party street, music can be heard very late.

    The beds were rock hard and the people that work there weren't too understanding when I complained about the matras. I had to get mad for them to finally assign me a new bed. The room stank, because the drain was clogged and I had to ask the cleaners multiple times to clean it...

    Good location. It was convenient that the bathroom was connected to the bedroom.

    The reception staff assigned both me and someone else the same bed, which I then had to return to reception to deal with. The staff weren't particularly friendly either. The beds are also extremely uncomfortable and my locker didn't actually lock.

    Great location & okay for if you're in a pinch with accommodation. The hostel is also connected to a really lively bar that host a fireshow in the evening.

    The wifi didn't work well. The beds are very uncomfortable! My bed was right infront of the 23 celcius degree AC and it was freezing at night, very hard to sleep. I had to use towels as extra blankets. No storage area in the room of lockable lockers, none. A club very close by is quite loud if you plan to sleep early. There was toilet paper only on one day of my 4 day stay.

    The location is nice. Close to nice places, enough area to park a scooter and swimming pool. The staff is also kind but you only see them at check in and check out.

    I have never slept on a harder bed, felt like sleeping on a bare wooden board. The towel isn’t suitable to get you dry. There was loud music until maybe 2am from the Lotus Bar, so I could barely sleep at all.

    It‘s close to the beach and there’s a pool.
