    This is a really great hostel! The owner was so kind and helpful and was really concerned about his guests experience. The private room was such an amazing value! We got a huge room to ourselves with a mini fridge, balcony, and ensuite. So much more than we were expecting! The location is about a 20 minute walk to Ao-Nang beach and there are a lot of great restaurants and bars right outside. The wifi isn't very strong anywhere but other than that it was a really great stay and I'd totally come back again!

    We stayed in a double room which had a comfy bed, AC, private bathroom with hot water, fridge & TV. Great value for money. One must cross the dorms to get to the private rooms but it really is no issue at all. The management was very kind and helpful. We cancelled the last night and were not charged cancellation fee which was highly appreciated. Located around 20 minutes walk from the beach, there are plenty of food/drinks and bars in the area. Given the prices in So Nang,we would definitely stay there again!

    Cheap price! Staff is super nice, room is big, AC working good but wifi not. Cheap restaurants around hostel. They only give us one towel for a room for 2. Suggestions? Clean bathroom inside room every day please.

    worst hostel ever and i have been in a lot !!i was not sure to book this hostel because there was some mix comments about the management and the cleaniless of the place. Well they were true. we book a private room and it was dusty, dirty and smelly. the bathroom had mole and the toilet wasnt functionning properly. There is no aeration in this hostel and the air is smelly. The ambiance is dead. Invest in your stay and book elsewhere.

    Very fun place! You’re paying $4 a night for a place, it comes with a nice bed and air conditioning during the night and a pool table that’s very fun, and when you first walk up the patio is super cute and fun to meet people. I was going to stay for one night and ended up staying for 10! The place is next to a lot of places and has a pickup service that gets you from this hostel to phi phi or Koh Lanta for very cheap!!

    Simple but comfy place to sleep, bed sheets are clean and mattress is comfortable. They can improve the cleanliness of the bathrooms and common area, but the staff seems to be working on that. It is located 20-25 min walking from Ao Nang Beach which is a really nice walk with everything you would need on the way, from food to atm and laundry.

    Really good. We stayed in a double room with private bathroom, AC and a terrace for 500thb/night. The owner is pretty funny. They ask 300thb fee for the key, but it is returned during the check out. It is quite weird to pass through the shared room to go to the private room.

    Cheapest place we found online for Ao Nang - 179 baht per night for a dorm room with fans. If you walk around, you might find a similar/better deal. Hostel is about 20minutes walk from the beach, dorm was very clean but the bathroom was always dirty and the aircondition condensor are also located in the bathroom. For the price, one cannot expect a lot, however I rated this place 3 stars because when I asked the owner about the sunset trip he told me it costs 500baht, then the next day when I was about he said it costs 700baht. When I enquired about the change of price, he pretended to make a phone call but I could clearly see the gallery open on his phone while he prentended to be talking with someone.
