OK!”

Me and my partner stayed there for 4 nights. We stayed long because it was cheap for what you got. Pros - cheap acommodation - nice private rooms - AC Cons - Our toilet didn't flush for our entire stay - The wifi in our room was extremely bad - Expect a 20-30 min walk to the beach All in all, it was a hostel that had a lot of potential but felt effortless in making it attractive

Cheap, decent hostel ”

Super cheap hostel, beds are comfy with white sheets. About a 20 min walk to Ao Nang Beach,close to lots of resturants and night markets. Owners are very friendly and we played cards with them one night. They do coffee and breakfast in the morning for cheap. Shower area could do with an update but it's still OK, and for the price you can't complain!

Great privacy rooms. ”

Great big rooms, most with a balcony. There was a few problens with the cleanliness when we checked in, but we were too lazy to ask to have something done. The staff would for sure have done anything if we had asked. Placed according to maplocation, so expect a 15-20 minute walk to the beach. In return you find very cheap food nearby, and some nice bars. Would stay again.
