👍👍 Really lovely hostel if you're looking for somewhere quiet and clean with a pool table and a pool! The staff are very friendly and helpful. I extended my stay really easily at the front desk because I enjoyed it so much and the price was unbeatable :D The beds have privacy curtains and you have you...

    Spent longer here than I meant to. It's a quiet spot, a short walk from the beach with a pool and everything you need. The drinks are pretty much the same price as 7 eleven. The staff are kind. The beds are comfy.

    Really lovely hostel if you're looking for somewhere quiet and clean with a pool table and a pool! The staff are very friendly and helpful. I extended my stay really easily at the front desk because I enjoyed it so much and the price was unbeatable :D The beds have privacy curtains and you have your own light. Wi-Fi is free and was very fast. The toilets and showers are nice and everything is regularly cleaned. They also offer an overnight laundry service on site too. The hostel is a few minutes from some amazing local cafes, a 7/11, a pharmacy and some great dispensaries ;) Not too far from popular tourist attractions either and taxis are cheap. Couldn't recommend it more!!

    Such a lovely place to stay! There is a free pool table, ping pong and swimming pool. Everyone was so lovely and the prices were great. It’s near to the beach for sunsets as well! We found there wasn’t too much to do in the area and taxis were needed to get around.

    Most adorable hostel owners ever! I arrived there with my knees injured due to an accident and they directly settled everything for me to have the smoothest stay possible. They arranged my transportation to a good and affordable clinic, carried my belongings around and even provided me with crutches. On top of that, the hostel is very comfortable and well located, everything is clean, good atmosphere in the common area and the swimming pool is very appreciated. Best value for money! Thank you so much for your help and amazing service!

    Nice pool area and outdoor space, air con in rooms from around 4pm-12pm. Bathroom is very basic. The bed is also basic, mine didn’t have curtains on one of the exposed sides so I had less privacy than everyone else. The rooms are no shoes and that includes the showers - not a bad thing just an FYI. Free breakfast included as well!

    Cute and great access to the pool! There were even three puppies visiting from the neighbors :) they have a bunch of games you can play as well. Buuuut, the beds in the hostel were not comfortable and super squeaky.

    Close to the airport, such a good price for what you get! Lucky to have found this place last minute, the staff is so nice and welcoming. Beds have curtains & comfy — bathrooms are super clean! Pool too. 10/10 recommend this stopover or stay ☺️

    Great little hostel. I rented a private room with three beds in it for 20 quid. Clean and tidy throughout, and they can help you with pretty much anything you need.

    Stayed here as a couple through our time in Samui, 6 nights, very helpful friendly staff who take care you, provide fresh fruit for customers every day, towels and housekeeping on request, had a comfortable clean stay! Room had quick pool access, pool table and ping pong table! Very good location, we walked straight from the poer, bike shop and food options in walking distance! Had a lovely stay thank you so much

    AC is wonderful. tiny room, no where to put suitcase. Free wifi is a bonus. Close by lots of restaurants and cafes. Small swimming pool with enough seats, even pool table and ping-pong which is a nice addition. 'Breakfast' is only Nescafé ,milk and cornflakes but there is a fruit stand not far and as everywhere 7/11.

    Good and cheap hostel, with cornflakes breakfast 🥣, swimming pool 🏊‍♀️ and billiard table 🎱 The Hostel is very popular and can get very crowdy around Fool Moon Party date.

    Big dorm, not great aircon management. Plenty of disrespectful drunk backpackers. If that's your thing they also have pool and ping pong, and a good communal area. The place is clean and the staff are quite nice. Expensive for 20 bed dorm though, and things like towels cost extra

    Solid place to stay. Staff here is super friendly and super nice. They helped us book tours to An Thong National park anf the tour was great. We actually ended up on the same tour as the owner's son! The owners invited us to barbeque and the mixed drinks at the bar by the pool are good. Prices are good too. The owners also gave us extra hangers to dry our clothes after we did laundry. Like seriously, so nice. The bathrooms are clean and well kept. The beds are comfortable and clean. They have lockers to store belongings. Really, super nice. Ask for pretty much anything and they'll help you with it.

    Cute hostel, decent rooms and game area. It's tucked back off the street and really pretty.

  • 5/5 Lea B. 2 years ago on Google
    Very nice & helpful staff, location is great to get to the rest of the island, get something to eat or rent a scooter. Everything you need is right around the corner. The community is great and the facilities are clean. Very nice pool as well

  • 5/5 TK 5 years ago on Google
    This is a must stay for all backpackers or travellers. CHEAP!!! michael and ane who run this place are awesome by the end of your trip youll have made awesome friends , the reception is also the bar so was awesome first impression to see everyone hanging out there, easy way to break the ice rooms were very clean with a nice toilet and shower, there is an outdoor pool and lounge area in the centre of all the rooms and dorms wich gives it like an american motel feel (in a good way) so makes for an awesome hangout. only ever spent few hours in the room to sleeo or shower apart from that was spent outside. they also have a menu for food to order, this is propper hot meals ranging from burgers to italian to thai food and it is deliverd to you (no kitchen on site but they have a partnership with another business) laundry service and motorbike rental along with ferry and boat bookings are also available on site. location wise its a 15 min ride to chaweng beach and just 3 mins to the big bhudda. its a 5 min walk to bangrak pier, so if your staying around the full moon time you can easily get a speed boat there and back.( thats what a group of us did) pretty sure i missed a few things out but this is a must stay for anyone visiting koh samui note: if you visit make sure you order a 'TK' at the bar ;)

    Highly recommend staying here!! Both Anne & Michael are lovely & made us feel very welcome.. had a blast with everyone from the hostel. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Perfect location to get to the port to other islands or a short taxi ride to the main town

  • 4/5 Addy p. 5 years ago on Google
    Friendly staff, comfy beds with soft sheets, hot showers, clean. Small pool also, bar, pool table and table tennis to enjoy. Enjoyed our stay here and would go back again. Has a nice atmosphere throughout the day and the evening. Can get your laundry done cheap and hire a moped also.

    Great for that low price. The walls of the rooms are like paper, but Ok. There are no planes during the night, so no worries.

😐 The hotel is beautiful. We were there for 8 nights, but ended up moving hotels after 5 nights due to the number of screaming kids in the pool. It would be good if there was a dedicated pool for adults only. I felt like I was in a public pool at home. Also, limited to no hot water in the shower and n...
