Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This was my first stay in a hostel and I am glad it was here. The staff were amazing upon check in. I felt safe and the facilities were clean. It was very close to the airport so made getting transport early the next day very easy. Good wifi. I wish I actually got to stay longer because I feel like there was some fun areas I didn't get to check out! If I come back to Phuket I will definitely stay here again.

Guy on the front desk was friendly and nice. Was my first ever stay in a hostel and it wasn’t all bad. Guests were respectful. Some chatty, some not. Most either just leaving or arriving being so close to the airport. Bus stop nearby to head into other areas. 7/11 across the road, beach 10/15 minutes walk away. Nice restaurants around. Would recommend for short stay simply because it isn’t the most social, but was very chilled, relaxed & pleasant vibe.

En kort promenad från flygplatsen, så taxi mm behöver man ej tänka på. Flyg hör man ej, men trafiken hörs dygnet runt. Rena rum, städad dusch/wc samt nära till många alternativ för mat mm.

Wow,, for my first time staying in a Hostel traveling solo I truly had an amazing time at this spot. I loved it there. The staff was amazing, the bedrooms were clean, and they breakfast that was actually good. Great location right near the beach and around plenty of food options that are all affordable. The culture and vibe is well worth it. I’ll be back again in April.
