They have the most adorable cats that I’ve ever seen. The room is new, quiet and comfortable in a great location. The receptionist, forgot her name, is lovely - always happy to help. She found my sunglasses which I forget on the floor and kept it for me 🙏🏻

Located in Patong Beach and within a 18-minute walk of Patong Beach, One One Hostel Patong has a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi.

The place was very clean the hostess was amazing she took care of me like my mama. She serves you water food Another good thing is that the tour packages that you will get from outside she can arrange the same for you at a much lower price because she has the connection she was a tour operator in the past. So if you're coming here do not worry about booking your tours in advance she can take care of that for you The place is around 10 minutes walk from patong Beach it's not right on the beach which I think is a good thing

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The budget room was excellent as it gave you hotel quality at hostel price. Had an amazing pool and the room was cleaned every day for you. There was a restaurant in the tree tops at the hotel which served very nice and affordable food.

    This is a newly opened youth hostel with a great location and environment. The owner is very kind, extremely helpful, and polite. Also, their Wi-Fi network is excellent. If you prefer a quiet place to stay, I highly recommend it

    This hostel is in such a great location! Close to Karon beach, local food stands are everywhere on the street, the bus stop to the old town or the airport is just like 3min walk from the hostel :)

    The property is set in a great location on a quieter road but still only 10 minutes or so from Karon and all its facilities. It’s also very clean and modern touches, and we loved the private pool. The beds were super comfy and they provided lots of towels. They also saw we were travelling with children on our arrival and a man came back with some balls and toys for them to play with in the pool which I thought was nice. The staff were friendly and the villa felt very safe too.

    Excellent and budget accommodation option on Karon beach. The room is very spacious, has everything you need (refrigerator, safe, beach towels, powerful air conditioner). Cleaning is daily. It takes about 7 minutes to walk to the beach. The owners are very friendly, helped with ordering a taxi. A great option for your money, I will recommend it to my friends! Thank you for your hospitality!
