We didnt stay at the hostel but we rented a scooter and are very displeased with how this was handled. There was almost no interaction with the people there, the helmets were horrible (only 1 decent helmet, all the others were only half halmets on the back of your head, very dangerous). It was pouring rain, they didn’t show us anything, when we wanted to leave, there was no gas in the scooter and they just told us you have to fill it up without saying where or anything. The deposit amount is crazy high in comparison to the scooter rent.

It's my first time staying here. And it was the first time staying in a hostel. It's better than I thought. The staff were very friendly, spoke smoothly, the rooms were very clean. I'm very impressed.

We stayed here for two nights during the transit of our flight from Krabi Airport. The hostel offers a modern and clean atmosphere. Good options for passing the time in the hostel include billiards, a pool and a small fitness area (enough for training with your own body weight).The breakfast is small, but the most important things are there (cereal/toast). You can also get free water around the clock. A delicious and inexpensive option for dinner is the Night Market, easily accessible on foot.

The facilities and rooms are neat. The hostel is in a great location and when in high season I can see this being a very fun and convenient hostel.They need a few more curtains in the rooms as the bunks face each other and you're staring straight at the other person across from you.I unfortunately only give a one star review as the English staff member there "George the entertainment manager" robbed my two friends on a night out and took all the money from their wallets. I hope that this is further looked into and disciplinary action is taken.
