Guest Reviews

- Laura (8/5): Laura - Muy buen ambiente incluso siendo temporada baja había muchas gente y actividades para hacer todos los dias. Las literas no tenían cortinas, las habitaciones eran muy pequeñas para 8 personas y lo peor la manta que no me tapaba ni los pies.
- Daniel (8/5): -
- Nejla (10/5): - everything, it was perfect. the best hostel I‘ve ever stayed in!!
- Dargent (6/5): J’ai connu beaucoup mieux ! - Hostel près de la plage, piscine et coin de partage très sympa ! Lit très inconfortable dur comme de la pierre, pas de rideaux pour l’intimité, clim coupée entre 11h et 18h, ils nous prennent notre passeport en guise de caution, ils ne louent les scooters qu’à la journée mais ne le disent pas lorsqu’on les loue à partir de 15h.. Personnel pas agréable du tout !

- Ana Kelle (6/5): It was okay. I only stayed for two days; otherwise, I would have gone somewhere else. - The staff is very friendly, and it’s in a good location. You can also rent a motorbike at the hostel, which is very convenient. The bed is not comfortable at all. The shower barely works, and the bathroom smells very bad. It’s extremely hot, and they turn off the AC from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
- Séverine (10/5): -
- Pim (10/5): Gezellig - De mensen die ik hier ben tegen gekomen blijven mij voor altijd bij, zo’n gezellige plek! Gezamenlijke douches en wc voor mannen en vrouwen gemengd, en de airco die uitging tussen 11:00 en 18:00

- Remco (7/5): - They take your passport as deposit but don't list this on the booking page. Only after confirmation and payment, they send you this information.
The reason is if you trash the room or rent a scooter, however when checking out they don't check either one of them. An unnecessary policy.
- Cassandra Michie (7/5): Nice place to relax, but expect love island vibes from the reps! - Really nice hostel with nice rooms and bathrooms, the pool area is really nice to hangout at and close to the beach! The reps who work here made the experience so bad because they were very rude especially to the women, offering things like free shots to men only and made the whole thing very uncomfortable. Basically love island for the reps.
- Kiki (7/5): -
- LUIS (6/5): - Wifi didn’t work properly and they charged me 50 baht for an extra towel. At first they told me it was a deposit and that I would get the money back, but later they said it was not refundable.
- Lucia (6/5): Preis Leistung passt :) - Gut gelegen, Rollerverleih und Pool.
Partyhostel mit vielen Events (wer‘s mag) Die Betten waren sehr hart und es war nicht sooo sauber.
- Mathilde (8/5): - Accès direct à la plage de long beach Manque de commerces autour à faire à pieds
- Riaan (7/5): Great stay, enjoyed everything with the place, spent a lot of money on alcohol - Good facilities, cheap bike rental, 2 minute walk from the beach, helpful staff, decent pool, activities most nights. Air con off during the day, very drinking heavy beers lace so if your looking for quiet don’t go but it also does say that in description so you can’t really complain about it!
- Lisa (8/5): - Keine Vorhänge (was man wusste aber wäre nett gewesen)
- Burak (8/5): -
- Sean (8/5): Very fun, good hostel - Good area, good pool Showers could do with replacing but still good
- Aguero Garcia (9/5): -
- Marco (9/5): - E una struttura molto buona C'è stata una persona un po scortese alla reception
- Maud (8/5): Vous serez certains d'y rencontrer des gens cool ! 😊 - Les points forts de cet hostel :
*Des espaces communs de qualité : piscine, hamacs, bancs pour les repas ou travailler. Tous ces espaces font que c'est très simple de rencontrer de nouvelles personnes, notamment pour les voyageurs solos !
*Un emplacement très près de la plage, à deux minutes à pied.
* Vous pouvez louer un scooter directement sur place au prix qui est pratiqué partout sur l'île (250 bht/jour)
*Beaucoup de soirées et d'évènements organisés par l'hostel pour favoriser les rencontres (mais surtout si vous avez moins de 25 ans). Les points faibles :
*Sur les chambres : les lits ne sont pas confortables, pas de rideaux (comme c'est précisé dans l'annonce), il y a des lockers mais vous devez prendre votre propre verrou car ils n'en fournissent pas.
*Les chambres de 8 sont toujours remplies, chaque soir, ça tourne beaucoup ! Mais du coup il n'y a pas suffisamment de crochets ou d'espaces pour suspendre les affaires mouillées ou humides.
* Il y a deux douches et deux toilettes par chambre de 8, mais l'espace entre les deux pour se préparer est trèèès petit, et il y a trop peu d'options pour accrocher ses affaires. Et puis ce n'est pas bien conçu car les portes des toilettes s'ouvrent sur cet espace.
* Le personnel est assez blasé.
- Leïla (7/5): - L'emplacement et l'extérieur avec piscine ect Le personnel n'est pas du tout agréable et aidant
- Ben (9/5): Great gaff - Great social, good options of food and drink available. Great location, with scooter rental available. 2 minutes from long beach. Nice pool too. Would recommend Only slight downside is no curtains, however we knew this when booking so wasn’t a deal breaker.

- Joren (8/5): -
- inelia (4/5): -
- Donna (8/5): - Fabulous Nothing
- Emil (10/5): -
- Martin (8/5): Cool hostel, a bit on the commercial side - Social vibe, very nice outside area with hammocks. The pool was nice and it was very close to the beach. They have a lot of events, however beware all of them include drinking, which is not really my thing.:)
They offer a scooter lesson and a rental. It was honestly a bit pricy for what you really get - just because there you also pay for drinking water, all events… You also pay for clean sheets or towels even if you’re there for a longer time. Just beware, among these things it’s a nice hostel.
- Kaisa (10/5): Underbart - Närhet till stranden Inget

- Anna (8/5): - Nice common areas and social! Alot of activites. Bike lessons! Cheap food and alcohol! Close to a 7/11 and the beach! You can fit your backpack in the locker if it’s around 55L and lay your stuff on the ground infront! No curtains, the shower/toilet situation and quite rude staff. The AC did not work in my room. The rooms feel small. Scooters in bad shape
- Iulii (9/5): -
- Joshua (10/5): -
- Krzysztof (8/5): -
- Estelle (10/5): -
- Chelsea (8/5): Social - Very social, the hostel has something happening every night (pub quiz, buffet, paint n sip etc). Pool is really nice and the grounds of the hostel is beautiful. Right beside the beach too One Thai man who worked there wouldn’t let me check out or return my passport to me 10 mins before reception was open even though my transfer was also waiting for me at reception. Was very rude
- Daisy (9/5): - Nice pool, lovely staff, gave us a free moped lesson, very social Shower pressure wasn’t good at all

- William (9/5): Great social hostel! A little expensive but overall worth it. - The hostel is 2 minutes walk from the ocean, the chilling area was great with a pool, pool table, lots of space to hangout. It’s a social hostel with lots of activities and it’s easy to meet people.
We also did the 4 islands tour organized by the hostel and it was a great experience! The staff was very nice & helpful. We even had a problem with our scooter and they came to rescue us.
Overall I really recommend this place! The mattress are super hard. The showers aren’t great but it does the job.
- Dominik (8/5): -
- Dominik (8/5): - Great common area, lots of activities, close to the beach, and friendly staff. Very social hostel with a great atmosphere. Bunks have tiny shelves and no curtains, mattress is very hard, extended one night but charged more than price posted at reception.
- Juraj (10/5): -
- Bence (8/5): -
- Lina (7/5): Trevligt ställe! - Trevlig uteplats, fin pool, nära stranden, bra mat! Hårda sängar, AC:n var avstängd på dagen vilket gjorde att man inte kunde ligga på rummet förrän kl 19 typ
- Elias Mert (6/5): -
- Joel (9/5): -
- Nikolova (6/5): - a lot of activities, great location smell in the room and bathroom, also tiny
- Carina Maria (9/5): -
- Gitay (10/5): מדהים - אחלה בעלים
כלבה חמודה
מסיבת סירה מטורפת שווה ללכת
Booze cruise = the best speed boat in Koh phi phi
- Maddison (10/5): - Such a fun social hostel. Pool and hang out areas are super nice. Rooms are simple but good. The beds have no curtains so not a lot of privacy.
- Juliette (6/5): -
- Sanne (10/5): Een van mijn favoriete hostels in Thailand. Een geweldige locatie en een goede combinatie tussen een sociaal en chill ho - De geweldige locatie. Niks.
- Karin (5/5): הוסטל שמתאים לאנשים שבא להם מסיבות ואלכוהול - הצוות והמתנדבים היו מאוד נחמדים, מסביב להוסטל המון טבע ועצים ומרחק הליכה מהים זה הוסטל מסיבות, כולם שתו כל היום, חזרו שיכורים לחדר ועשו רעש, השירותים והמקלחת בתוך החדר הם היו מלוכלכים והמים החמים לא עבדו.. כל פעילות שיש צריך להוסיף תשלום אפילו כדי למלא מים בבקבוק מה שמקומות אחרים מביאים בחינם. לא התחברתי להוסטל ולמרות שסגרתי 5 לילות עזבתי אחרי 2.. היה לי יותר מדי
- Emilie (10/5): incroyable hostel - la piscine, le billard, les plats sont délicieux, l’endroit chill avec les hamacs, proche de la mer
- Hanna (8/5): - Veldig kort vei til stranden og mulighet til å leie scooter for å komme seg rundt på øyen. Fine rom og god plass til å låse inn bagasjen. Personalet arrangerer ulike aktiviteter hver kveld, så veldig enkelt å bli kjent med andre. Lite annet enn stranden som er i nærheten, men med scooter kommer man seg enkelt rundt. Er opplegg i fellesområdet hver kveld som bråker en del om man ønsker å legge seg tidligere. Haner og høner som bråker tidlig på morgningen, anbefaler ørepropper.
- Anna (9/5): - Wspaniałe miejsce, blisko do piknej plazy, dużo roślin na terenie obiektu i miejsc do relaksu (hamaki), miły personel, klimatyczne miejsce, czysto. Polecam
- Gaelle (5/5): -
- Vaudaux (8/5): - the decoration , the bungalows, the proximity to the beach. The staff were all rude, not welcoming. there aren’t a lot of restaurants close, you have to walk. They take your passeport during the entire journey so if you need it it’s complicated.
- Rico (5/5): -
- Lucie (7/5): - Bon hostel Hostel adapté à des personnes qui veulent faire la fête, pas calme et détente. !
- Erica (8/5): -
- Charlie (8/5): - Great location by the beach and really nice facilities set up to make this a great social hostel. The staff were also really welcoming and good fun. Also had a really fun atmosphere for Christmas Day with a free dinner and party after! Taking your passport for the whole stay makes everyone feel a bit uneasy and happens at no other hostel or hotel I’ve visited in SE Asia. Have stayed in other hostels with cash deposits who just keep passports while you take a bike out.
Having to pay extra for activities like pub quizzes as well when the hostel itself is on the pricier side.
- Elin (7/5): -
- Joseph (9/5): - Great location in front of the beach, friendly staff and you can rent a motorbike directly from the hostel Not the cleanest bathrooms
- Elin (8/5): - Location was perfect right by the beach and within walking distance to a few good restaurants and small shops.
Water refill available for very cheap prices.
Good air conditioning in the rooms.
Very social and different activities available everyday as well as good restaurant.
Provided towels. No curtains on the beds.
A lot of sand in the dorms and especially the bathrooms.
Toilet and shower are in the same room with nothing in between so the floor is always wet.
A few bugs in the bathrooms, however never in the dorms!
All the activities like pub quiz etc are extra cost.

- James (7/5): -
- Ahmed (8/5): It was good - Social and meet new people there It is near the beach but little bit far from Saarland
- Benjamin (8/5): Great hostel, perfect for travellers who like a communal vibe - Great atmosphere/ community, events every night, close to the beach and has a full arsenal of facilities. No curtains on the beds (I like a little privacy) and the bathrooms were a little on the unclean side, but that’s just me being picky
- Lucie (10/5): On recommande +++ cette auberge pour son extérieur et sa proximitée à la plage - Séjour parfait, l’extérieur de l’auberge fait toute la différence ainsi que sa proximité avec une tT’es belle plage.

- Svenja Nicole (6/5): Cooles Hostel, die Leute haben gerne alles tudammen gechillt sm Abend. - Direkter Zugang zum Strand. Coole Hostelanlage, gut zu Fuss zu erreichen. Die Klimaanlage ist nur von 6pm bis 11pm an. Wir hatten einma gefragt ob wir sie für eine Stunde andchalten können weil wir packen wollten, dies wurde uns erlaubt. Ich finde es gut, dass auf den Stromverbrauch geachtet wird jedoch ist es sehr heiss.
- Trøstheim Skontorp (6/5): - Close to the beach, nice pool and can rent scooter from the hostel. Social and they have a nice buffet. Sorrounded by nice nature so was also relaxing. Most of the staff is rude and it affected my experience there. The rest was really nice. The bathroom also smelled really bad, wondering if it’s because of mold. Bathrooms are small and not very clean, and the beds don’t have curtains.
- Johannes (6/5): - I just walked in and Dean is a great guy, very welcoming. The Thai staff seems just tired of all misbehaving backpackers but the attitude of them was also not very nice. Three guys at my doorm were just so disrespectful with noise all night long, talking like it's daytime.
Because of them also the bath was dirty.
AC too loud.
I think it could be a 9/10 if they improve those points
- Raela (10/5): - Amazing view! The rooms are clean and the staff are helpful and friendly. Very chill vibe great place to meet other travellers The beds do not have curtains
- Rohit (10/5): -
- Amelie (2/5): Negative Erfahrungen sehr schade - Vorsicht Bettwanzen!!!!! Zudem kommt noch dass die Frau die das Hostel leitet ziemlich unfreundlich ist.
- David Ganesh (5/5): Good to socialize, that's it - Good hostel to socialize and meet new people. Staff was rude af, One sink for 6 people, AC got turned off during the day, so it's way too hot in the room until 6pm.
