Clean, safe, and good staff... but poor location in phuket town (not close to any beaches, and no nightlife whatsoever). Armin, from Canada ~ 25th Oct 2009

There is no AC in the dorm rooms, but the fans were okay. Excellent DVD collection and common area. Central right in Phuket city, but not really close to the beaches on the west side of the Island. No lock on my door or on the toilet doors. Jon, from Canada ~ 29th Aug 2009

I spent there just 2 days, nothing to reproach. I felt like at home. It is 10min walk from the bus station and 2 min from the market. angelina, from France ~ 17th Aug 2009

We stayed in a private ensuite with shared bathroom the first day. It was very noisy as the rooms are not completely covered and not sound proof. People staying there dont bother of others around,they keep switching on the main hall lights and talk so loudly not caring if others are sleeping. Most of the bathrooms cannot be locked at all. So we complained to the management the next day and they moved us to a private room with attached bathroom with a/c wit. This room was neat and spacious. Fortune, from France ~ 19th Jul 2009

One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. Excellent and friendly night time staff, clean rooms, Huge catalogue of DVDs for hire, free internet, chilled out lounge great for meeting people, brilliant location (right near local bus stop to take you to the beaches). They even have complimentary cold wet towels to cool you down - great idea! We stayed longer than we intended, loved it. Rebecca, from England ~ 2nd Apr 2009

We got a horrible room which was situated on the first floor next to some sort of water heater. The heater would turn on and off at all times of the day and night and it was really irritating because of the volume of noise that it put out. Also people would walk outside our room at all times of the night and speak very loudly which would keep us up. Another negative is that it appeared as though a flood light was situated to beam directly into our room as to furthermore keep us awake. Fina Kevin, from USA ~ 1st Mar 2009
