Okay hostel … fine if you want a cheap bed to sleep in (hostel was clean, staff were helpful, bathrooms facilities were good, but beds weren’t very comfortable and very thin blanket, no good common area) … wouldn’t recommend for solo travellers trying to meet people.

Good hostel. The rooms were clean and modern and I liked staircase up to top bunks. Not a huge fan of under the bed lockers but they were fine. The locks werent very secure. Showers got nice and hot and bathrooms were modern and clean. There is not a great common area especially when its raining. Only some eating areas and the pool table area. No comfortable couches to relax on. Could use some organized social tours or music to make the atmosphere better.

Room/ bed shapes are really weird and causes very tight spaces in the rooms…

Very unfriendly staff at the reception, laundry took 2 days instead of one and cost more than it said on their fact sheet, wifi is not good and the doors to the rooms are very loud. It‘s in the center though and even though you have showers/toilets only in the hallway, there‘s enough for everyone and you don‘t have wet feet when entering the room.

The place is in a very good location. A bit of sketchy road but very central

good location, and nice that there is a room you can chill in after an overnight bus. However, once we checked in there was blood all over the ‘fresh’ sheets (it had been made). Got one night refunded (€5), but not an amazing impression

Nice showers and nice beds. Lovely staff. No one really goes in the pool and it’s not sociable at all. But it’s a nice place to stay and really good value for money, we rented bikes too

Das Personal war nett und es gab eine 24/7 Rezeption, was zum einchecken in der Nacht besonders praktisch war. Die Bäder wurden jeden Morgen ordentlich geputzt. Leider hat unser Zimmer stark gestunken, was aber scheinbar an einer anderen Gästin lag. Durch die fehlenden Fenster konnte man dagegen aber leider nichts tun. Wir fanden es auch schade, dass es kein kostenloses Wasser gab. Um zum Hostel zu kommen, muss man zwar durch eine etwas shady Gasse laufen aber es ist sehr zentral gelegen.

Translated to English

The staff was nice and there was a 24/7 reception, which was especially convenient for checking in at night. The bathrooms were cleaned thoroughly every morning. Unfortunately our room smelled badly, but was apparently in another guest's room. Due to the missing window, one could not do anything about it but unfortunately nothing. We also found it a pity that there was no free water. To get to the hostel, one has to walk through a somewhat shady Gasse but it is very centrally located.

Greta hostel! The staff was nice and there were many things you could buy like bicycles for the day or tours to other cities. They had a nice pool and room. The bathrooms were communal

Highly recommend this hostel, the staff are so amazing and a special shout out to Gon who went above and beyond to help me find my bag after someone took it from the storage room. He couldn't have been more helpful!

Es war ein sehr schönes Hostel. Klima im Bad fehlt und dadurch war es sehr heiß. Der Pool ist eine tolle Abkühlung. Die Lage des Pools ist ein bisschen gewöhnungsbedürftig.

Staff were super helpful and spoke good english. The hostel is in a great spot, right next to tam coc river and in the midst of all the restaurants and stores. The rooms were super clean and had ample room for storage. Bathrooms and showers were cleaned often too.

Had such a nice stay here! The rooms were quite spacious and so clean!! The only negative is that the bathroom can get quite hot and humid, but otherwise it was a wonderful stay!
