Property was clean, no privacy curtains as in the picture but otherwise not many complaints. Nice staff

this is an okay place to sleep for one night with a good balcony view from the room and good restaurant, however the vibe is so bad it was completely silent in the lobby/downstairs at all times. There’s no curtains on the beds so no privacy and the bathroom was pretty grim with the sink leaking everywhere into the floor. Also you can just walk into the room no locked doors and nowhere to keep your belongings

I don’t understand the reviews for this place. Disgusting bathrooms, no curtains and the least comfortable bed of my trip. The pillow is literally a large piece of foam. I couldn’t find a comfortable position and got zero sleep. Not at all a social hostel.

I stayed in the hostel just for one night. Based on that what I could say is that the location isn’t in the center of the village. You should walk a bit to get to the restaurants and where the nightlife is. It wasn’t a big problem because the village is small. They offer different tour for Khao Sok and Cheow Lan Lake and you can book them once you are there. The staff is sleeping in the reception, thing than can sound weird but it is.

Die Unterkunft tut sein Zweck. Das Personal hat uns geholfen die Tour zu buchen und insgesamt ist es ungefähr wie auf den Bildern. Blöd nur das ich anreisen im Bett hatte und das man im Zimmer alles hört aus dem anliegenden Bad. Die Betten haben keine Vorhänge aber das sieht man ja auch auf den Fotos. Es ist keine schlechte Unterkunft aber ich würde nicht unbedingt noch mal buchen

Die Familie ist super nett und hilfsbereit! Der Besitzer hat mir bei meiner Reise nach Koh Samui weitergeholfen und organisiert auch vieles andere wie Touren oder Taxis. Das Hostel ist auch super nah am Nationalpark daher sehr git gelegen und das Dorf hat mir generell sehr gut gefallen!

Great hostel near the main walking street and right next to the entrance to the national park. Staff were super friendly and you can book tours with them. Rooms were basic but were clean and lockers were available for personal belongings. No curtains on beds though.

Prima hostel voor als je naar Khao Sok National Park wilt. Het zit in de drukte met restaurants etc. Enige nadeel is de douche en wc in één ruimte.

Nunca suelo dejar malos comentarios en ningún alojamiento pero me veo en la obligación de hacerlo. Pagué por el servicio de lavandería con ellos y me devolvieron todo menos un pantalón, que además era un regalo de una persona importante, así que lo perdieron. Esto no es lo grave y aunque fastidia, todo el mundo puede cometer errores y es humano. Lo que realmente me molestó fue la falta de responsabilidad que tomaron después del error, me cobraron lo mismo y no dieron ninguna solución....

Gutes Hostel. Erfüllt den Zweck wenn man in den Khao Sok Nationalpark möchte. Würde es jederzeit wieder buchen. Sie helfen einem auch bei der Organisation von Touren. Wir haben sie einfach vorher angeschrieben, damit wir auch wirklich noch eine Tour bekommen und sie haben uns beraten. Und unsere Weiterfahrt haben wir auch einfach vor Ort gebucht und wurden dann abgeholt.

Perfect place to stay for 1 or 2 nights if you want to go to the National Park. You can book a last minute 2 days 1 night trip to National Park with the hostel.

Just perfect. Super sweet hostel and cozy vibes. The staff was very nice and looked after my luggage for 2 days while I was at the Khao Sok Tour❤️ Beds were very big and clean. Toilet and shower same as in other hostels. We even had a huge balkony. Definitely recommendable. Paid 5€ a night but have had paid 20€ as well. Thank you ☺️

Prima hostel. Dichtbij de ingang van het park. Het eten was niet zo, de restaurants in de omgeving waren stukke beter. Op de laatste dag denken we zelfs voedselvergiftiging hier opgelopen.
