+ La buona posizione che non è difficile da avere perché il centro dell'isola è talmente piccolo che è impossibile non avere una buona posizione...

- Sono scappata il primo giorno senza averci dormito e dopo aver pagato 5 notti.. Sinceramente non mi sono trovata con le recensioni eccezionali di questo ostello. Il letto sembra un loculo, non c'è aria condizionata, un solo water per credo circa una decina di posti letto, le docce aperte con solo una tendina di plastica...luogo non adatto secondo me al genere femminile. Ci sono altri ostelli a Koh Samet che allo stesso prezzo offrono molto di più.

Expensive for a very old hostel with minimal facilities. No vibe from other guests, bar was empty both nights. Just a place to sleep ( a very muggy warm sleep as AC no good )

+ Läget

- Klaustrofobiskt att sova i båsen. Men när jag vände och sov mot öppningen och öppnade dörren lite gick det bättre.

The hostel is average but the real issue are the mattresses that are definitely not for sleeping but are the ones usually used in the gym. The fact they are also just put on flat concrete makes it impossible to sleep comfortably. Another bad note unfortunately is that the owner did some work in the early morning like 08:30 waking everybody up while he could have just done them at least at 11:00 on checkout time. I never leave bad reviews but this time I believe it is necessary.

+ Le concept des chambres est bien pensé, les portes coulissantes isolent bien les couchettes. Mais les matelas vraiment c’est une catastrophe, ils sont ultra fins et durs.

+ This place is pleasant enough but didn’t live up to expectation, after all the great reviews. The location is good…close to the ferry port, beach and on the main strip. And the dorm was clean and kept cool at night but the shower room did get a bit smelly as the day progressed. The owner is friendly, chatty and very present each evening.

- I was surprised at how small the premises was. Just one mixed dorm and a tiny terrace which is cleared away at 11pm each evening. And the owner’s friends hung out on the terrace each evening. The bed mattresses are very thin and so it was not the most comfortable of sleeps but I did get used to it. Payment must be in cash only and there is no ATM on the island.

+ Super Lage. Privatsphäre durch Schiebetür am Bett.

- Besitzer des Hostels war ständig im Zimmer, hat selbst gereinigt etc. Wollte Gespräche anfangen. War mir etwas zu persönlich. (Individuelle Meinung). Duschen waren leider echt schlecht geplant. Komplett offen, nur durch zu niedrigen Vorhang geschlossen. Beide Geschlechter in einem Bad. Da fühlt man sich nicht wirklich wohl beim duschen. Keine Haken in der Dusche.

+ A nice simple hostel with a local feel. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was also very nice, a comfortable place to hang out in the evening. I liked the location as it's close to 7-11 and the boats and the bus stop. I liked the privacy of the beds. I also liked that the toilets were separated from the beds by a sliding door, and that there were 3 toilets. The mattresses were traditional and hard but personally I like that, it makes my spine feel better. The beds were also clean and the pillow was nice.

- As it is a mixed gender dorm I wish there was a safe place to get changed, such as by separating the showers by gender. I ended up changing in the bed which was a tight space because the toilets were just a small cubicle and anyone could walk into the showers which only had a curtain. It wasn't the end of the world but it would have made me feel more comfortable if there was a private or single gender area to change in. :)

+ Welcoming staff who are very helpful. There is a nice social ambience, helped by the comfy seating area overlooking the street. It's very easy to sleep in the dorm capsule. It feels more like your own mini room. Some nice touches such as hairdryers.

+ příjemný malý hostel, na dobrém místě přímo na hlavní ulici na ostrově, večer probíhal mezi cestovateli příjemný družný hovor u plechovky pivka, spí se v kójích se zatahovacími posuvnými dvířky ... což poskytuje výborné soukromi

- V horním patře bylo v kojí přes klimatizaci prostoru trochu teplo, ale žádné drama, hostelu není co vytknout
