    They hold your passport without any good reason. The room is very humid so it’s really hard to get your things dry. Cleanliness is very poor.

    Ac working well

    We booked a private room, but there ended up being a man we didn't know staying in the room with us and we were still charged for all 4 beds.

    Overall the beds were not very comfortable because they are a relatively hard mattress and also in the eight bedroom the hot water does not work at all The internet is very poor but you are on an island so that is ok however I am most frustrated at staff telling me the wrong information this morning leading to me having to wait around on the island for another 2 hours and missing the connections I should have, I understand the English is not your first language however the cause of what happened I literally needs to spend my holiday night working because I have a deadline today

    It has a reasonably good Vibe and if you just want to drink and all that stuff it's probably the place for you

    The private room was a bit drab but was OK for the money we paid. We moved to a dorm because we extended our stay and that was a lot nicer.

    Good location and you can use the hideout bar and swimming pool which is really sociable. Lots of events to meet people. Great for a solo traveller.

    Attracts loud partygoers so you’re likely to get woken up in the night. Toilet was a little unclean and the location was a bit out of the way.

    Rooms were modern and beds were comfortable. Very cheap for Railay.

    First pub quiz i’ve ever had to pay for, Staff come into the dorm rooms throughout the day promoting events which was a little invasive. Drinks were overpriced and had to pay a fair bit for water refills?

    Great location, nice clean rooms, able to use the pool from blanco and good social events.

    If you want to sleep,THIS IS NOT YOUR HOSTEL. The bar/pub is exactly underneath the rooms. Either join the party or wait till is done around 01.00. Other than that, I recommend it 👍

    The beds were comfortable and bathroom clean and large. We booked 4 bedrooms and we were lucky of having the room for ourselves.

    No curtains or shelves which is a first for all the hostels I've stayed at. Also be aware this is the party hostel of the two Blanco's. Expect loud music and bass until 1am

    Comfy beds, good facilities

    My bed had bed bugs…. I had zigzags of bug bites all across my chest after 4x nights stay. DEFINITELY not mozzie bites as the diff is obvious. idk how because the mattresses are Lino but it’s true and it’s gross. No shelves or curtains in dorm beds. Curtains u can deal with, but not even a shelf on the beds to let your phone charge overnight and a big gap from bed to wall, so you’re sleeping on top of your phone, spectacles if u have them, all night, which is uncomfy and unhealthy None of the employees are Thai - all vaguely cold foreigners (shout out to Riley tho, he is great and actually warm). They didn’t do anything wrong , to clarify, it’s just not the greatest vibe. They are friendly enough but there is something weird there. Also, feels like we should employ Thai people too, surely it’s bad to export jobs in such a place ?

    strong a/c (too strong if you are in bed directly underneath and no option to turn off) Clean, modern bathrooms Lovely access - I stayed in bottom room so every morning I open the door and I am in front of the water :) Easy keycard access location is excellent, next to cheapest coconuts, quick walk to beach, great massage. Much better than being on the main Railay strip good events organised by hostel, something every night, really good fun and met really great people Look, you basically have to stay here if u want a hostel in Railay. It does the job cleanly and efficiently V nice about bringing you extra blankets or whatever u need

    They have pool access which was nice!

    Didn't personally bother me but there is a bar directly beneath so it was extremely loud until 2am. If you are a light sleeper/ looking for an early night, might not be ideal.

    Staff were super friendly. Spacious and clean with plenty of locker space

    You could hear the music from the bar area, so it was a bit hard to fall asleep before 3 am. And there was no nightstand by the top bunk, so I slept with some things in my bed

    It’s not a very practical hostel. Lockers under the bed are subpar. Bathroom has no where to hang towel so that it stays dry and the drainage is poor.

    It’s an okay location and the staff were fantastic. Aircon and fans in the room was great
