    Because of the dog, the day I stayed in the common areas, a lot of fleas bites me :(

    It was a good place, near the pier so when you arrive can just walk until there. The rooms were really clean, and the AC worked perfectly, but they turned off between 12 to 5 (it is a small island, so they try to save energy and water as much as they can). You can order delicious food, and there is a pool table and some games. There are some dogs, and one of them barks kind of scary but don't bite. They have hot water, but most of the time, it is not really necessary

    It’s quite buggy in the outdoor common space, we were there in monsoon season so the rain made the bugs worse. Make sure to use repellant! We had a dorm room that was accessed through the main area. At night there’s a swing door on the side of the property to get in; and with no lock on the dorm room door, it means basically anyone can come in. Backpackers are generally lovely people and this didn’t worry me personally, but just be aware.

    The owners and all the staff are so so lovely, super welcoming and happy to chat and give recommendations for whatever you’re looking for! The rooms are cleaned daily, it does get quite dusty in the rooms, but again, totally manageable. I was on a top bunk in a 9 dorm room so the bed bugs were quite noticeable for me, but I was super close to the ceiling, and I always have a liner with me while travelling so this didn’t bother me. Just something to be aware of. The bathrooms were adequately clean, good water pressure too. Overall anything bad about the property is minor, and completely overshadowed by how wonderful the owners and the people that stay there are!

    There’s one dog that barks at everyone and can be a bit aggressive. Don’t really think it should be staying in the hostel but it never actually hit anyone, was more annoying than anything.

    Receptionist was super friendly and helpful, especially as I extended a million times. Laundry service quick and easy. I stayed in the 9 bed dorm which is in its own building, a little dark but I didn’t mind it. Sometimes when it was full a bit of a queue for shower as there’s only one between 9, but if you’re desperate there are other ones to use in the main building. Nice garden area I used to practice yoga. Also the kitchen serves of the best pad thai I’ve ever had. Good prices too. And allowed me to store food for me to make my own breakfast. Chill but sociable and good price. Would stay here again.

    The dorm was really messy, small, poorly mantained and dirty (except for the sheets, that smelled great, and the matress was really comfy). Half of the lockers were broken, and no keys were provided. The bathrooms were ok but not really clean neither.

    The common areas and the bar/rest are lovely and ideal for socialising, and the staff is really nice and helpful. The location is also ideal if you aren't looking for tranquility, very close to the pier and next to lots of restaurants, pubs and other shops.

    Good vibe in this hostel. The common room in the first floor is good. And the chill area in the second floor is nice. The AC will to the hole day.

    it was surrounded by nature and there were a lot of welcoming common areas. Right outside the hostel there are many thai restaurants and the hostel is closed to the ferry station. If you stay there I suggest to go to the closed Rasta baby pub.

    Because the floor is wood and the doors are very thin sometimes can hear people walking and talking, but nothing too bad, it was a lovely stay!!!

    Very kind staff, comfortable beds with curtains, AC in the rooms, you have lockers, but need your own padlock, the common areas are very spacious, bright and comfortable, there's free filter water for guests and a towel, they clean the bathrooms and rooms everyday

    They were ants in the rooms and bathrooms, but not too much.

    The lady running the hostel is super nice and creates a welcoming atmosphere. The hostel is central, close to the pier, not in the party area, so it doesn’t get to loud at night.

    beds were uncomfortable. the bathrooms were disgusting and never seemed to be cleaned and smelt very bad and sink were covered with ants. beds were so noisy because the mattress is plastic. No bin in the room. the towels they provide aren’t actually towels, they’re cut off pieces of blanket. very overpriced for what it is.

    Staff were nice and helpful. good location. pool table and darts.

    the bedrooms & bathrooms needed a good clean. Got chased by a dog on my way to the bathroom which was terrifying!!! also the dorms don’t lock?! when I asked why we aren’t given a key I was told they have cctv so don’t need to lock the rooms, so I didn’t feel very safe.

    the outside area was nice and staff friendly
