    Dated hostel. Sinks are too deep, toilets/showers are small. No lift. The 6 bed dorm is actually a 14 bed dorm with a black dividing curtain (no wall) between rooms.

    Location is a 10-15 minute walk to central Samui. Walking distance to shops, beach and gym. Small Locker provided in lobby. Noise wasn’t a concern in the evening. I would do a short stay again.

    The hostel rooms are cramped with little space to move and store your baggage. And outside noise does come in the room every now and then.

    The staff were very friendly, accomodating and easy to understand. The venue provides free water, instant coffee and sometimes fruit which is very useful. There are lockers where you can store valuables. The venue was also very clean, shared bathrooms and showers were cleaned daily.

    Unfortunately the room smelt really bad of the toilets next door and was very tight, especially with everyone's luggage too.

    Perfect location! Friendly staff. Wifi worked well.

    The hotel was good value, meaning that as amazing as the beach and pool were, the rooms were clean but dated. Breakfast was passable

    The location was superb. It was away from the noise of the town and beside a beautiful, secluded beach. The pool area was also lovely and quiet

    - There is nothing about this place which is "hotel" or "best" - Price is high for what you get - No safe deposit box. When asking I was bluntly directed to a drawer in the room which can't be locked. - In general we felt that the receptionist wasn't genuinely nice. Sure she said to talk to her if we needed anything but when we needed something she usually answered in a very non patient manner, as if we were disturbing her. Sure she doesn't owe us a better attitude, but it could have made a difference.

    - Close to the beach - Fairly quiet - Rooms are clean

    Not very sociable if that is what you’re looking for/ no common area really, no lift which was annoying for me with heavy bags lol! The bathroom is small, wet room vibe

    Very clean, staff friendly and bed comfortable. Location was good, a bit of a walk to the centre maybe 10/15 mins or so. We stayed in private room.

    Could maybe do with a bar or pool to elevate the experience for guests! But otherwise no real cons.

    The owner is so cute! Really lovely and attentive and always very friendly towards us. You could tell she was very pleased to have guests and this place should have more guests than it does! Excellent location, walking distance to strip and beach. Perfect for couples. Very clean

    simple clean accomodation with a very fair price.
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 4 nights

    - hard thai style bed - better chair in room would be great - hot water in basement but no kettle in room

    Located at the southern end of Chaweng Beach in a quieter side street, this hostel offers a good balance between accessibility and peace. While the surrounding area shows signs of wear like most side streets in Chaweng, the property itself is well-maintained. Room Quality The deluxe private room with window features a traditional Thai-style double bed (quite firm) and a compact bathroom. The room is notably small - two people would struggle to pass each other comfortably. Though basic, everything was impeccably clean. The "balcony" is actually just a window opening to the street, but despite proximity to the main road, noise wasn't an issue at night. Connectivity Internet was down for two days during my stay, though this was due to heavy rainfall in the area rather than a fault of the property. Management Run by a mother-daughter team who maintain strict standards and adherence to rules. They're friendly and accommodating but extremely particular about their property and policies. The manager demonstrated exceptional hospitality by personally driving me to the airport when my taxi failed to arrive - a level of service that truly stands out. Additional Services Motorbike Rental: Available but requires passport deposit and they conduct extremely thorough inspections Laundry Service: Efficient express service completed within 6 hours at reasonable rates Value Assessment Excellent value considering the cleanliness and location. The bathroom layout (shower and toilet in same space) is somewhat cramped but functional. Recommendation A solid budget accommodation option in Chaweng for travelers who don't mind firm beds and can respect strict house rules. The location offers a good compromise between beach access and avoiding the worst of Chaweng's noise. Best suited for solo travelers given the room size constraints.

    First of I am sorry for the rating… I never did evaluation but in this case I have to this. The room is just fraud in every perspective. As I arrived people whom were leaving were already complaining but irgnored it.. stupid me The room has no window. The room has a mold smell, makes you feel sick. The mattress is the most uncomfortable ever. Feels like sleeping on a wooden floor. The room has a very strong cigarette smoke smells. Especially in the bathroom and over the day gathering in your room. Seems like it’s coming from other rooms. No useable mirror in the room. Cleaning is done very bad or in the late afternoon when you want to return to the room after a long day. Feels more like sleeping at your grandmas house, than at hotel at this rate. Very unprofessional in every perspective. Every hostel i have stayed so far is better than this accommodation. Said there will fresh fruits… no fruits …praised its again an nothing.. Can’t drink the free water in the “lobby” Owner is focused on cash, cash, cash..as in every spot in thousand is a lost with fines for wrong behaviour…. Dirty towel, dirty bed … crazy fines … trust me and skip this one

    Sad but truely nothing. Worst money I have spent. Worth max. 20 Dollars at night.

    The air conditioner was not as good (the host didn’t allow for a temperature which would’ve been appropriate for everyone). There was no remote or way to adjust the temperature but don’t think it should inhibit the experience as such.

    The place is impeccably clean and hygienic and very well located with everything close by. The staff was very professional as well. The wifi was pretty strong both in terms of bandwidth and connectivity.

    Really clean room with a comfortable bed, AC and powerful shower. The lady running the hotel was so lovely and smiley, and made it really welcoming, offering us fruit and water etc. The location was good, close enough to the bars and restaurants but far enough away that it wasn’t noisy at all. 10/10 would definitely stay again.
