Quite reasonable prices. If you can life without aircon (two fans in my room). Some rooms are without window and air can be quite poor in the room. Fridge, Bathroom, tea/coffee fascilities and a save. Security of the save is doubtful, however. (Keycode printed on save, key seems to be standard one). I had, however, no incidences concerning this during my stay (in february 08). The girls downstairs are all very nice!! You can play pool and have drinks in the hall. Karon beach is quite quiet and taxi to Patong/Kata is relatively expensive. The beach is not so croweded in Karon, though. I liked it in Beshert, no complains (except from the air in my room, due to missing window). Oliver says hello to Mei, Gaeng and the other girls!

I had a great time at this Hostel, although to describe it as a hostel is a little unfair. In my experience, it was more like a good budget hotel. The staff are very friendly and will be quick to make sure that you are enjoying yourself. The bar area at night is a great place to unwind, have a beer and shoot some pool. I would recommend this establishment to anyone.

If you're after something on the beach, this place is OK but that is about it.

For budget accomodation this is just right. I stayed in the cheapest room available which was nice and cool despite having only fans and no aircon and had a single bed that was actually wider than average and very comfortable. Complete with tea-making facilities, a fridge and a safe it has the feel of a small hotel rather than a hostel frequented by backpackers. A bar downstairs with a fre pool table and pleasant, friendly staff, and within 5 minutes walk of the beach and a variety of cafes and bars, this is a great place to stay for a few days R & R.
the peaple were really very great, and I did not have a problem at all with the music or bar or anything. I was sleeping right above the bar on the first floioir, but after 21:00 it was reasonably quit. great place all in all!
Noise from Bar and pool table downstairs. I only had one night here, staff seemed friendly, but like this whole area of Phuket many solicitous bargirls. Found 2, condom wrappers in room, draw your own conclusions. I wouldn't stay here again, although vry cheap and adequate.

Great little hostel in Karon. Very close to the beach, good value for money and lovely rooms. Spotlessly clean, good size and a great place to stay!

Was a great place... the staff was nice and friendly and felt like family by the time I went home. My single complaint is that on the listing page it says "internet access" which is not true, though wi-fi can be picked up from a few of the neighboring bars if you are out front. Would definitely stay here again.

Some rooms have no windows. Too many girls soliciting in bar. If you (especially if you're by yourself) want to party in Patong, don't stay in Karon - the tuk tuk drivers will rip you off and you'll end up spending much more than by staying in Patong.
