The DJ that ruined everything
Theres nothing good walking distance. But it is situated basically half way to haad rin from thong sala - which makes getting to the full moon party super easy, likewisefor on the hungover trip to the ferry the next day. Hostel food is good, the drinks by pool are cheapish and wont poison you. And they play legitimately good house beats all day. Being a party hotel theres plenty of people to become drunk friends with. The only let down is around 8pm on nights of the warm up parties for jungle experience and full moon party, when someone called DJ Dany takes over and puts on his deafeningly loud trashy pop music. Pretty much ruins your mood, good music gone, cant hear any conversations, just 50cent raping your ears for 4 hours. Otherwise the private rooms are great, surprisingly sound proof, and functioning air con. Nobody seemed to complain about the dorm rooms so they must be fine.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Room comfort
Very strong party vibe, lots of fun if you’re into partying hard and drinking. I booked 2 rooms and turned up to find only 1 available which meant I had to stay in a different place to my friends. I asked the guys who ran it to refund me but they didn’t seem to do much other than email Expedia so I ended up calling Expedia and paying lots of money for the international phone call but got the refund eventually. The one room we did have was very very damp and had no windows

Would not recommend
Even though this is a party hostel, it was still just quite gross and impossible to get any sleep. Got very sick from the food as well. Not ideal that I had to stay for 5 nights minimum at this place during full moon.

Nice inexpensive private off season
Booked private and free upgrade to large aircon room. Very nice staff. Restaurant good food and good price. Room very clean and basic. Before full moon in the back was very quite. Had in room safe but more secure door would be nice.. Beach across street not good. Great soccer field and beach volleyball. Owner offers free soccer for local youth. Very nice!

Really cool place to stay for the half moon party. Pool area has a good vibe and rooms are great for the low price tag.

Good enough
We stayed at this hostel for 3 night and enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and fairly spacious. The shared bathroom was clean as well. The location of the hostel is OK but you do need a scooter to get to it and around the island, I would recommend renting on as soon as you get off the ferry. The hostel has a soccer field and a pool or use as well as ping pong and pool tables, great environment if you are young and looking to party not so much if you are looking for a relaxed stay. Overall we did enjoy it, it's a great choice for budget hostel on the island.
