    It's a cute cat-themed hostle and is very clean. I slept in a large room with several bunk beds. The beds are large and very comfy. The beds have curtains around them. There's a table and a few chairs in the room and also a hair drier. The owners are nice and let me feed one of their many cats. The location is perfect and near two sand beaches.

    seemingly one bathroom on 1st floor for the large mixed dorm room, which would get busy if full/peak season. can't remember anything else significant.

    Friendly and kind owner (謝謝您老闆:))who chatted with me in my bad 中文Chinese。 - Dorm room A/C is plenty strong. - Common area, fridge and water dispenser. - Close to main drag, but on quieter side street. - Lots of space for luggage - Free ear plugs and toothbrush provided, this is uncommon and appreciated! Random reminder: Kenting requires bike or scooter/car for the common traveler/backpacker. Some people I met thought the area was underwhelming and boring. The scenery along the roads is gorgeous, and YouBikes are available. The landscape and laid back environment is what draws me here. Many water activities available however.

    The bathroom is a wet bathroom, so a bit messy when sharing with other people.

    Excellent location! Right on the night market and a three minute walk from the bus station. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were clean. The owner was very attentive and helpful throughout our stay.

    Unfortunately, there is only one bathroom for up to 12 people, so you often have to wait, but it is still okay.

    Location is perfect next to the main road, convenience stores, the night market, a beach and bus station. Room is big enough. Good value for money

    This hostel is exceptionally clean and quiet, and the owner is friendly and hospitable to guests. The bed was comfortable, and I slept like a baby. The hostel's location is perfect, yet it remains peaceful at night, so there's no need to worry about noise. It offers easy access to everything, and I would definitely choose to stay here again if I visit Kenting.

    Possibly the best hostel you could stay at in Kenting. It is centrally located- kenting bus stop is a 3 minute walk, the national park is right next door, the night market is a minute long walk and so is the beach. The beds are super comfortable and clean. Overall ambience is amazing! The air conditioner is also on the entire day so it’s quite pleasant to be indoors. The hosts are still the best part :D They are so so kind and caring! They genuinely love having guests around and are tirelessly working the entire day to keep everything smooth for us. They have lovely cats at their place so it’s always so lively and fun to be here! They knew I was on my own so they went the extra mile to make me feel welcome- I will always remember their generosity and warmth. Thank you for working so hard. You make the place feel like home ❤️🌱🌸🥰

    The location is amazing! it’s only a couple blocks from the bus stop and less than half a block from the night market. The staff is super kind too, the room is huge! the biggest I’ve ever been to. There is only one bathroom in the first floor and I thought it was going to be a problem but it wasn’t :) there is free tea, coffee and a big refrigerator in the second floor :) I’ll definitely stay there again :3

    There was only one bathroom, which is not enough for that many people and the bed/pillow could have been better. Last but not least, the personnel operates on very minimal English and when I had a big issue with my reservation they could not help me at all. However in person they tried to be helpful.

    Great location, next to bus stops and night market! They even offered toileteries and earplugs. The room was and felt spacious even though it had 12 beds.
