I LOVED this place. It was my first stop on my first solo trip and I was so pleased. The staff was the sweetest, the location was prime, and the other travelers staying there were awesome. Dorms were exactly as pictured, and I felt very safe and welcome. I can’t say enough good things.

Allison

The beds are super comfy, clean washrooms, hot water.

Pearl

modern design, living area, shared kitchen, both ac and fan in the room, functional gym. very clean. you have your own lamp, 3 plugs and 2 usb plugs for each bed. if you want more privacy you should ask for a bottom bed, as there are no curtains between the top bunks, but it wasn’t a problem for me.

Helena

the beds are the best, comfy amd private amd quiet and AC is not so cold. ideal.

Most comfortable and perhaps biggest dorm bed I’ve stayed in for the last three months, everything seems easy at this hostel. Really comfortable hangout areas makes this a really social place.

Staff could be more friendly although its tough to see someone smile behind those masks the're wearing these days. No twinkle in the eye though...
Very efficiently run and obviously well yhought out as a hostel. Rooms are spacious. Common areas are huge and airy and the way it occupies a corner with large windows makes you feel like you're outside inside Very well done!

“Big party hostel tries to stay relevant in coronavirus tourist slump”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 1 night

A fix problem of party hostels: the bar staff trying to pick up guests (and pushing drinks). You're there to serve the guests and maybe help interaction, not to gain flags/notches.
Any time there was a problem they fixed it after I told them. I think that they're finally noticing that options abound in town. Early check in posible and easy check in and check out. Good lockers with space for big backpacks under the beds, the rooms stay clean.

“One of the best hostels I ever stayed!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Stayed 3 nights
The staff wasn't very helpful, they only wanted to sell tour packages and not actually inform people (but that's very common in Thailand). The privacy courtains weren't private at all because they only covered about half the bed.
Awesome hostel! The beds were very confortable and the bathroom was always clean. The place also had a common area and a rooftop, which made it easy to meet people. There was a convenience store right next to it and the night market was a 5 minute walk away, great location!

It’s not really about the property. Arrive at the hostel later in the evening and you just wanted to have some good sleep, there was couple having sex at the top of your bed bunk. Classic horror hostel story.

Parts of the staff are super friendly, but some are not. They seem annoyed and not helpful. On the last evening I asked if I could pay the deposit for the towel in dollars because I was flying back the next morning and didn't want to take any baht with me. I would have even deposited more money, but the staff showed no understanding whatsoever.
This hostel is really nice and it is a good place to meet new people. Everything is nice and clean and there are very spacious lockers in the room. The beds are very comfortable and have curtains, so you have some privacy while sleeping. Shops, restaurants, bars, food markets and the pier are very close located. The hostel offers some tours and activities and they also have different events like for example BBQ‘s, boat trips etc. I have been there twice and liked it very much. Definitely recommend it.

The bar next door plays music until 12:30am. Lots of mosquitos! This is in Krabi in general too.
Really great place to stay. I extended my stay one extra night. The hostel is clean, friendly, and in a great location in Krabi Town. 5 minutes from the night market, the pier, and easy to access Railey Beach & Oa Nang Beach. The hostel rooms are clean with good AC and clean communal bathrooms with good shower water pressure as well. There were social activities that the hostel arranged which were awesome, and the other guests were friendly and fun to spend time with. I would recommend Pak Up and would definitely stay again.

“Great facilities and location, excellent place to stay long or short term”
- • Leisure trip

The window curtains are fairly sheer, so an eye mask was helpful for sleep. Some of the beds have privacy curtains while others do not, it would be nice if all have curtains.
The facilities in the hostel are the best I’ve ever seen. While the “functional gym” is actually a pull-up bar and some free weights, it’s a huge rooftop space with plenty of room for body weight exercises and yoga. The kitchen is excellent. Large amount of refrigerator space and every appliance you may need including gas stove, microwave, blender, toaster and even a waffle maker. It is well stocked with pans, cutting boards, and utensils as well. The rooms are spacious and have large lockers. Each bed has a small shelf as well as outlets, USB ports and a light. Bathrooms are clean and the water pressure in the showers is amazing! Soap and shampoo are available in the showers. The location is great. Within 5-10 minute walk of 3 different markets and a 3minute walk from the pier.

Wouldn’t stay in krabi town again, but if I did I would come back to this hostel. Didn’t really meet many people here, I think I just came when krabi town was quiet in general though. Everyone was probably on the party islands for the Christmas period.
It had comfy beds with lots of room to put your bag (there’s a locker under the beds which are huge and could fit my whole rucksack). There’s even a shelf in each bed to put some stuff. A curtain and light for every bed too. The location for krabi town was good, near the pier and a few good bars. I just felt that krabi town in general isn’t a great place to stay.
