Had a great stay here! It’s close enough to easily walk everywhere (including only a few min to the full moon party beach) but set back far enough to be fairly quiet at night. It was so nice having access to a gym and a pool and I even did a Muay Thai lesson. Marissa is very chill, hangs out with the guests, and has a wealth of information. All the hostel guests became a mini family while we were there. Would definitely stay again!

I went to the gym, so I can't say much about the hotel.The gym is not even very small compared to other gyms in Thailand. There is a lot of equipment and I will go into more detail about this in a moment.I'll start with the positives.There is quite a bit of variation in weights. I personally believe that the dumbbells go up to 45. There is also a squat rack, pull-up bar, cables, the leg press and more. There are also quite a few fans.Now some criticism.All equipment is extremely rusty and poorly maintained. I started with the leg press and at one point I didn't dare to go any higher because it wasn't working properly. The leg extension machine also worked very poorly and was stuck due to all the rust. In addition, you pay 250 Watts for this gym. This is really expensive for the quality of the gym. To use the cables, you can set it alone or on the highest position and lowest position. It must be said that they did a reasonable job. Finally, the cleaning is clearly not done very well and I walked away with black spots on my arms and legs from all the mess coming off the machines.All in all, I give the gym 3 stars with some effort. It has what it needs to have and as long as you do a lot of free weights you can go a long way. You can also use the cables quite well, although you will also notice that they are a bit rusty. Make sure you bring your own towel. This will save you 20 watts and a really good 1.5L - 2L bottle of water.

Outside communal area is really nice with a great view and a pool. Four bed room was adequate, bunks are quite small and the shared bathroom didn’t feel very clean. You can get a discount to the nearby gym (it’s not free). Very helpful staff at reception. Lots of activities run by the hostel so a good place to meet people. Just don’t expect an amazing room.

Review dedicated only to the gym:The lady at reception doesn't speak English and even if you say "Hello" in Thai, nothing comes back...The devices are all very rusty.There is sometimes a great risk of injury from the devices.There are 5 cardio machines here! - NONE works.So price performance is underground.If it were 50B per day, you could turn a blind eye.30% of devices are defective.The gentleman who offers Thai boxing at least smiles every now and then :).

Seriously? The gym is the worst value I’ve seen across Southeast Asia. Charges 250thb/day when it’s worth 150thb at BEST. Dirty, rusty, broken machines, no air conditioning, etc.Minimal, no-frills gyms can be great… when they don’t price gouge.They’ve clearly gotten and seen these same reviews for years and haven’t changed a single thing.

Marissa is the best host I have ever meet! Tough and full of good stories. I is worthy to hang out there. No Party hostel! It is good place to escape the loud areas but it is really close by!
