Großen Respekt ein Unternehmen führen zu wollen im jungen Alter. Ich hätte dazu nicht den Mut gehabt. Die Unterkunft ist teilweise liebevoll und schön gestaltet. Der Pool ist okay. Es gibt warmes Wasser, sofern kein Stromausfall ist. Ich möchte niemanden schlecht machen, aber ich selbst vermiete über AirBnB eine Wohnung, ich weiß auf was es als Gastgeber ankommt. Negativ: kein Putzteam!! Es wird nicht geputzt. Überall ist Sand. Die Zimmer, die Bäder sind dreckig. Der Mülleimer für das...

Overall a generally nice experience. A chill place with easy facilities such as moped rental and pool etc. however the general social atmosphere felt more like a group of friends who own a hostel + guests who can get involved if they make the effort. Was expecting the staff to be more friendly and encouraging but we felt like we were intruding on their space

I didn’t stay at the hostel long as it wasn’t a good fit for me personally. I didn’t find it welcoming, more like I was intruding on staffs space and time when I checked in, two were chatty with me as I checked out but unsure if that was because I was checking out early. The bathroom smelt awful, room was a sauna before 6pm slightly better with A/C, bed was wobbly it shook as people walked, the curtain doesn’t even go close to the end and the locker doesn’t lock. Good safety locks on r...

It’s a very chill hostel, social but not too overwhelming. The atmosphere is really nice and social, the staff is very friendly and always happy to help. I think there is some room for improvement in the dorms, the bed curtains were too short so I couldn’t fully close them, also the blankets are not proper blankets. It could also be a bit cleaner, bathroom drain not cleaned, some ceiling leakage. Nothing big though, overal we had a nice experience! But I think a little pricy for what you...

Lovely atmosphere, great staff. Renting a scooter is necessary because of the location. Facilities should improve for this price: - the beds are hard (I got a top mattress and then it was better) - the shower pressure in room 2 is not enough

Ligt verweg van de bruisende straat. Je moet hier echt voor scooter rijden om het makkelijk te bereiken. Het matras is enorm doorgelegen! Slechte nachtrust gehad hierdoor. Je krijgt geen deken alleen een lakentje. Personeel is wel zeer vriendelijk, maar spreken met elkaar in het Zweeds en is daardoor moeilijk te mengen.

Staff and atmosphere are great here! Always a chill but social vibe. However, I do think it is expensive / overpriced. The en suite bathrooms are often messy and beware that the doors to the rooms and the bunks are both really noisy!

Het is allemaal oke, vriendelijk personeel. Praten wel voornamelijk Zweeds met elkaar. Daardoor moeilijk te mengen. Het ligt verweg van de grote populaire straat en het strand. Je moet echt een scooter bij hun huren en gaan rijden. Anders lig je afgelegen en de taxi’s zijn te prijzig. Het matras is enorm doorgezakt!! En het is een bungalow dus verwacht het geluid van de straat te horen en het kraakt als iemand loopt.

The hostel was fine . The location is a bit outside which is okay if you have a scouter . The owners and people working there are very friendly and cool people . The main problem for me was cleanliness! It rained hard one night and next day the water in the bathroom in my room came out kind of yellowish and there were some kind of worms at the sink which was for me disgusting that I had to leave . I hope they can fix these issues as it can happen everywhere and wish them all the best!

As in the description its quite far from everything even a local shop so you will definitely need a bike to get around. The property was clean and staff nice. Beds are rock hard though and I feared climbing up the ladder because the bunks were not secured. The lack of a sufficent bunk light did not help either. I liked that each person had their own basket in the bathroom to place their toiletries.

This hostel was so good! The staff were so nice and the overall hostel was really chilled. The rooms were good with lockers for valuables and the AC was a perfect temperature at night. The en suite was clean. The only complaint would be the hostel location is a long way from anything but I imagine this is the case everywhere in Koh Lanta! The staff were SO helpful teaching us how to ride mopeds and had them to rent which was a lifesaver!

A really well put together hostel run by a great group of friends. Even with it being the end of season the boys were very accommodating and made the stay fun and comfortable. Would 100% stay here again and would strongly recommend the place.

Hatte einen tollen Aufenthalt in dem Hostel. Sehr sozial mit tollen Events. Insbesondere hervorzuheben ist, dass sich die lieben Mitarbeitenden nach einem Unfall direkt gekümmert haben. Sofort sind zwei Personen zu mir als Alleinreisende ins Krankenhaus gekommen und haben Unterstützung angeboten. Danach zusätzlich immer bei WhatsApp erreichbar. Auch mit dem entstandenen Schaden am Roller wurde mehr als kulant umgegangen. Dies ist nicht selbstverständlich und hat mir sehr viel Sicherheit gege...

Tolles community Hostel unweit von den wichtigsten Stränden/ Bars und Restaurants. Die Crew ist ungemein hilfreich, der Umgang ist sehr familiär und es werden jeden Tag gemeinsame Aktivitäten angeboten. Einzig die Betten waren etwas hart, aber darüber sieht man gerne hinweg. Ich komme gerne wieder :)
