    300 bhat per night for ac when staying in private room. I’d seen the ac on a picture so thought it was included.

    Great location close to walking street but off a side street to not be too noisy. Bananas, biscuits, water & coffee available. Lovely workers who can help with ferry bookings and recommendations. I extended my stay by 3 extra days and just had to change room but they made sure it was available for me whilst I decided.

    That there was not another ac room, I did stay in the ac room for a few nights then had to switch... only because I booked late and booked 3 different bookings... hence the different hostels.

    I stayed at 3 hostels on Koh Lipe due to availability. I enjoyed my stay at this hostel due to the outdoor space and seating, I also was happy to see the shelves on the bunk and fan on each bed. There were racks and hangers to dry bathing suits, clothes etc. I would highly suggest to get the room with AC as I stayed in both, no ac was very warm... but you get a little used to it. I stayed 10 nights between 3 hostels. I also enjoyed my stay at The Nest, owners at both locations are very accomodating... whrn I go again I will stay at either or both of these locations based on availability at booking.

    Great staff, and the location is great right by the walking street in the middle of the island. Great stay.

    It‘s such a nice place. The owners are really kind. It‘s super clean because they are cleaning several times a day. They have free water and snacks. The location in the walking street is very good. And they have a nice open chill out area/balcony where I met some nice people. I really enjoyed my stay in this hostel.

    The bathroom with toilet and shower are small and nearly always wet

    Very friendly family. We’re always smiling, helpful, friendly Small area to sit and have a coffee The dorm was a bit small for all the luggage. But there were little shelf and locker for every bed space. And even a ventilator for myself at the bed. You can get snorkeling mask for free. Good location at walking street.

    There was no air con in the private double room only a fan which made the night a little uncomfortable and the room unbearable during the day

    The location was great as it was just off of walking street. The host was friendly and helpful. Free drinking water provided was a nice touch. Room was clean and serviced each morning.

    Needs some TLC and could be updated a little bit, but not too big of an issue!

    Cute little hostel just off the main walking street of Koh Lipe. Laundry service available, which is always nice. Free coffee and water. I stayed in a private room with my friend which was nice, but the dorm rooms look good too! The downstairs lobby/outdoor area is nice for socializing.

    There isn’t a lot of locker space. They cram you into a room but that is island life. Check before you book if you have AC or just a fan. I learned that Agoda and booking are the same company and they messed up against the owner and the tourists.

    Good location. Some tea and coffee are free. If you wake up early then you will get a free banana but if you wake up late then you get nothing.
