Guest Reviews
- Lena (10/5): -
- Dawinna (8/5): Great stay. Recommended - Nice concept, I loved every detail of it. Recommended stay. Location is near to everything that I need.
- Dominik (9/5): - Tolles Zimmer mit Klimaanlage und das Bad und WC waren immer sehr sauber! Die Mitarbeiterinnen sind sehr bemüht und freundlich.
- blandine (10/5): -
- Kwok (10/5): - Clean spacious room.
- Franck (9/5): Séjour agréable. - L’emplacement, l’accueil. Une chambre pour notre famille de 4 correcte et amplement suffisant pour notre séjour. Tout était parfait
- Daria (8/5): Nice stay! - Nice and clean. AC. Nice staff. Cute hotel and good location. Close to markets and bike renting opposite the hotel. The shared bathrooms are big and cute. We were able to extend the room no problem. Everything was great but the rooms had this unpleasant white hospital light. Paired with the blue decor it felt a little more like a hospital than a coastal vibe. Just a minor issue.
- Grolleau (9/5): - Sanitaires partagés propres et pratiques Lits confortables Accueil sympathique

- Andrea (9/5): Overall a great place in Krabi! Recommended with the A/C - Great location, clean toilets, very friendly staff :) If you are thinking to save money with the room with fan instead of a/c, don't! The room is a oven, you need the a/c trust me (at least this time of the year)
- RBS10 (6/5): -
- Garazi (8/5): - Esta muy bien ubicado. Es pequeño y no tiene apenas zonas comunes, pero las habitaciones son muy amplias, limpias y muy agradables. El baño y la ducha muy cómodos. No hay apenas zonas comunes. Pero no se echan mucho de menos.

- Shawna (7/5): We enjoyed our stay in the bunk bed room with separate bathroom. It was great for a hostel. - Great location. Close to docks and night market. Great for a hostel. Beds were very firm. Noise from other rooms carry.

- Mario (9/5): Nice Hostel in Krabi - Very friendly and helpful hosts. They gave us tips and booked a boat transfer for us. The room was simple but very clean. Also good breakfast (was not included in our bookinh. We felt comfortable. Nice atmosphere. Good price/value ratio. Thank you!
- Anna (8/5): Affordable option for a stay in peaceful Krabi - Basic, but inexpensive room with fan - good value for budget travellers. The room had basic storage - one wall sleve, desk and wooden chair, wall hooks for clothing, drying rack for towels. Bed was comfortable, fan was strong and kept temperature at night down (though it was loud - earplugs helped). Bed linen and towels were perfectly clean, and the cleaning lady does an excellent job keeping common areas and shared bathrooms in good shape. A couple of common sitting areas available outside. We were very fortunate with other guests on our floor - everyone respected quite hours and kept common areas clean. Front desk staff are friendly. No drinking water dispenser (even though we saw several huge refillable containers laying around), so travellers have no choice, but buy water in plastic bottles from stores, and thus creating even more bad plastic waste. All places (even budget ones) we had stayed had complementary coffee/tea packets at the Reception desk for guests to enjoy as a normal Thai hospitality gesture; this hostel was NOT the case - on the contrary, the prices for simple coffee (and meals) seemed quite inflated. WiFi was strong, but NOT password protected - that means connection is not safe.

- kaajal (10/5): -
- Aurélie (9/5): - L accueil, la dispnibilité du personnel, la proximité et le calme . RAS
- Chantal (9/5): Perfekter Aufenthalt zur Weiterreise auf die Inseln. - Wir waren 2 Nächte hier und es war perfekt. Wie eine Art kleines Boutique Hotel, morgens konnte man noch lecker frühstücken (gegen Bezahlung) und die Mitarbeiter waren unglaublich freundlich. Sie halfen auch mit Buchungen für Fähre o.ä. Gaben Tipps zu Ausflügen und waren sehr hilfsbereit. Wir hatten ein doppel Zimmer mit eigenem Badezimmer und es war für 2 Nächte perfekt. Das Bad hätte etwas sauberer sein können, hat uns aber nicht sonderlich gestört.
- Matthias (8/5): -
- sidney (8/5): - Great location. Close to weekend night market and pier. Good rooms. Nicely furnished. Great and welcoming staff. We were on the 4th floor and no lift. Everything else was great.

- Jean-Marc (8/5): Simple et agréable endroit - L'ambiance marine, la simplicité du lieu tout en restant confortable et spacieux. La gentillesse du personnel. Je précise que l'on avait un chambre avec sdb et climatisation. Un peu bruyant.

- Imogen (8/5): - Clean hostel, in a very convenient location in Krabi Town. Bathrooms were very clean and the staff were lovely. The aircon was amazing. The beds were not super comfortable.
- Cornelis (8/5): -
- Claudia (10/5): - Liebevoll eingerichtetes Zimmer. Sehr gemütlich& prima ausgestattet. Nach hinten raus gelegen, daher ruhig& schattig. Gerne wieder. Die Haare im Bad von unseren Vorgängern. Alles in allen trotzdem sauber und gepflegt.
- Tereza (10/5): - Personál moc hodný a milý, ochotný, zpozdil se nám let, daly jsme vědět a paní na nás čekala na recepci než dojedeme
- Serge (8/5): - L'accueil, l'espace commun sympa Les chambres côté rue sont un peu bruyantes, préférer celles du fond côté jardin.

- Petr (10/5): - nice design, small rooms but cozy, great location
- Mohammed (6/5): - La proximité avec le centre Mauvaise connexion au wifi
- Anna (4/5): - Jedyny plus za miła obsługę Wszędzie daleko do Aonang 35 min taksówką. Koszta nie są małe. Lóżka niewygodne okropnie, brak czajnika trzeba kupić kawę na dole , brak żelazka, Niezbyt czysto-na 10 dni naszego pobytu było tylko 2 razy sprzątane. Podłoga nie umyta tylko omieciona, bardzo glośne trzaskanie sąsiadów. Nasz pobyt był nudny. Strasznie nam się nudziło bo w okolicy nie ma co robić. Do najbliżeszej plaży 35 min boltem.
- Siewan (8/5): Cute and comfortable - It was very pretty and a good location in Krabi town. The staf was friendly and helpful and the decoration was very cute. The bathroom was also very clean The doors can’t be looked I had some hairs in the beginning on the bed, they did changed the sheets immediately when I told them
- Marián (8/5): -
- Jana (10/5): - We stayed in deluxe room and finding a place this clean and comfortable at such a great price is rare. The property is well-maintained and the rooms are excellent. Plus, the staff is absolutely amazing - friendly, professional and always ready to help.
- Schottmann (10/5): - Good location Staff extremely helpful booking a tour and onward travel.
- Marc (9/5): -
- Georgia (10/5): - Parfait. Propre, agréable, bien placé, personnel sympathique. Et très bon prix
- Marianne (9/5): Idéal pour court séjour - Très bon rapport qualité prix, bon emplacement et chambre très propre. Le personnel d’accueil n’est pas très avenant…
- Jens (5/5): Günstig und gewöhnungsbedürftig .... ein Hostel eben! - Sehr zentrale Lage in Krabi. Dabei halbwegs ruhig (allerdings sind die Räume hellhörig). Das Zimmer war geräumig, mit vielen Ablageflächen. Die Innenausstattung des Zimmers sah schon reichlich abgenutzt aus. Der kleine Garten im Innenhof wirkte ebenfalls nicht einladend. Die (kostenpflichtige) Frühstücksauswahl ist groß und okay. Allerdings gibt es für das gleiche Geld in direkter Umgebung deutlich bessere Frühstücksalternativen. Fazit: Ein billiges Hostel - aber kein Ort zum Wohlfühlen.

- Jan Corne (8/5): Prima! - De locatie was goed, in het midden van Krabi. Leuke bars in de omgeving, heel vriendelijk personeel. De airconditioning in de kamer was erg prettig. Verder schoon, hygiënisch, niks op aan te merken. Het enige wat ik vervelend vond waren de harde matrassen, maar dat is een kwestie van smaak denk ik.
- emilie (7/5): - Personnel très serviable. Belle situation proche de la rivière, dans le centre. Salle de bain collective bien entretenue. Certaines chambres qui donnent sur le patio doivent être agréables. Chambres très petites, à peine la place de poser une valise au sol. Les fenêtres donnent sur un mur, manque de lumière. Établissement bruyant, chat, escalier, portes qui claquent.
- Gerard (3/5): cheap but you dont get very much at all - bring your own mini fridge if youre staying here - The staff are friendly and location is good however krabi town is very quiet in comparison to Ao Nang and about 30 minutes away from beach by taxi/grab but good for island hopping as there is a great tour place right beside the hostel No fridge to store water, even a mini fridge would be fine. Toilet and Shower are outdoor and receive direct sunlight at all times of the day which is very uncomfortable (shower head gets super hot). Water stopped working multiple times. there were also ants everywhere. A massive cockroach was also in the room one night we came back from island tour. no private outdoor seating area. Wifi free but unstable where my room was. Also i wouldnt normally mention this type of thing but because of the style of door you can hear everything and there was a cat that made crazy noises that kept me awake until 4 am 3/5 nights.
