    If anything, the kitchen could be better equipped but there really wasn't anything we didn't like when it came to our room and hospitality.

    The room is spacious, with a very comfortable bed, space for your clothes to hang, a lovely balcony, and a very nice toilet (perfect shower pressure and temperatures). It's in a quiet area, so you'll get great sleep, and it is also a 5-minute walk to the nearest beach, plus there are many different restaurants around. We found everything to our liking, and were really well welcomed too.

    The common area (kitchen and place to chill) is not nice. Moreover, the “hotel” is a bit “strange”. It’s a big building where a part of it is a hostel and hotel and the other part is where some local Thai people live. Nothing against them at all but I think it should have been mentioned.

    Friendly staff, nice and comfortable room. I had a good stay but I won’t come back.

    The walls are thin so you can hear everything if you’re a light sleeper like me then you may struggle. The property itself is not noisy it’s just thin walls. Shops are deserted in the two min walk to the property but this didn’t bother us at all it’s just a shame as I’m sure with shops filled it would be lovely.

    The room was a good size, well decorated, clean and the bed was comfy enough. Shower was warm and powerful. This is not really a hostel and feels more like a block of flats but it is so cheap and good value for money the location is in the middle of the island so if you want night life you want more lonely beach way. However there is a beautiful beach right across the road, places to eat and a gym right outside

    Fine for a night or two but there are things to improve on. There was water leaking from the bathroom ceiling and dripping down on you. The bathroom is in need of updates (moldy silicone etc). The aircon had not been maintained, so it was full of mold and dust which made the air smell moldy. Towels were so old and worn they had holes in them (luckily the bed linens were in better condition). You could hear other guests in the hallway/slamming their doors shut :/

    Affordable and spacious room with a big bed and a private bathroom. Working aircon and a fridge. Location is really convenient with a 7eleven, farmacy etc. right across the main street. Also many good restaurants and massage places near by. The walk to the beach was about 5 minutes. You can rent a scooter to explore the island.

    There was a deep chemical smell from some cleaning product (we suspect) they used that lingered in the room during the whole day and night. It was not pleasant to breathe in and disrupted our stay. We were only there a night so it was passable but took away from what was a pleasant stay otherwise

    Price to value ratio is great. Location very good and central. Clean & Modern. Easy check in.
