   Terrible thet stole our money, don't stay. Advertised room on Agoda wasnt the room at all, Agoda's fault they said ok fair enough, we agreed on cancellation without charge, still got charged for 3 nights. We went back and they put on a show even calling Agoda acting angry, assuring Agoda will give a refund, but here's the thing: Agoda didn't charge us apperently, the hostel did. Now they are not even responding. Basi…

   Probably the worst place I’ve stayed since travelling. The smell, crushed cockroach in the shower drain (after cleaners had been in). Huge gender imbalance at the hostel so wasn’t great for a solo female traveller. Towel got nicked and no hand soap. Yeah, wouldn’t recommend

   Title: Absolute Worst Hostel Experience – Avoid at All Costs! I rarely leave negative reviews, but this place deserves one. From the moment I arrived, everything screamed scam. Check-In Scam: They demanded a 1000 THB cash deposit without telling me beforehand. When I said I didn’t have cash, they literally threatened to keep my passport unless I paid. No card accepted, no options, just pure arrogance. This is not hos…

   No one is expecting much out of hostel this cheap but having the bar so low they have to dig under it to not meet expectations is disappointing. The hostel is not clean dysfunctional and worst of all I’m pretty sure the staff stole money from out of my bag. When I went to reception to report it they blamed me for having my stuff stolen. Do not stay here unless it is your only option.

   Do NOT STAY HERE! This hostel will force you into lower quality accommodations than what you’ve booked (eg shared rooms instead of the private room that you’ve booked). They have a documented history of doing this if you look carefully through reviews. This is a real hostel, they just scam you into accepting worse quality accommodations when you arrive and won’t refund you.

   Staff were rude and lied about giving a refund after accidentally booking twice. Staff did not show where anything was, doors did not lock at all.

   Well, what can I say? We arrived there and immediately asked if it was possible to stay one night less than booked. Mind you, on Hostelworld it said it was possible to cancel the last night. But they told us we had to pay anyway. When we tried to talk to them about it they simply laughed at us. Also, the vibe is super weird. Only men on the hunt. Insanely uncomfortable. When we walked into our room there was someone…

   Hopes were high when we walked in and saw the hostel’s impressive facilities and good location, but our stay left a lot to be desired. Everyone staying there is programmed to party 24/7, which is a nightmare if you want a day off (promise I’m not boring). The 14-bed dorms are hellholes where you can expect to deal with difficult roommates and life-threatening hazards (a fan set off an electrical fire at 6am in the ro…

   Don’t be scared of the cleanliness here. We were terrified before arriving from all of the reviews and it was one of the cleanest hostels I have stayed in. My friend did get spiked at this hostel though which I am aware isn’t the hostels fault but is still a safety concern as it was quite scare. Keep and eye on your drinks but otherwise a nice stay

    They charged me twice - both card and cash. Check your bank account after staying in this hostel. They did refund me afterwards but it’s only by chance that I noticed.

11. Boeking/vertrouwen Google Maps 2 jaar geleden

    They cheated us with a free booking and withdrew money directly on the spot. We canceled the reservation 10 days before the deadline. After a month when we visited the place they had not even made an attempt to refund the money. After we agreed that they should do it, they said that within a week or two we would have the money back. We have been waiting for this money for over 3 months now. We have spoken to them sev…

    I put 1 star because you can't put less... the treatment and service is unfortunate, not to mention the disgusting rooms and full of cockroaches, the workers who make the rooms stole 3000 baths from the room and the disrespectful manager of the hostel did not deign for a second to listen to me, talking to other guests I realized that I had not been the only person to whom money had disappeared from the room, for your…

    I have just been kicked out of a hostel for telling some cleaning girls if they would let me sleep, because after 1 month in Thailand I have found the worst hostel. The cleaning girls bother you, the beds are horrible, the rooms smell bad, the walls are made of paper and there is only noise from the street and from the pool that floats more oil than water, it's disgusting, don't jump in. The food is horrible and all…

    The staff literally steals from you. They booked an in appropriate amount from my card twice without telling you the real costs in advance. Just book it down later you see it then on the transaction history. And many other things very dirty smelly, management extremely unfriendly.

15. Geweld/intimidatie Hostelworld 2 jaar geleden

    very party and very expensive. We love a night out but I’d suggest staying literally ANYWHERE else and then going to arena for pre drinks before full moon or jungle party. The toilets flooded every night and the beds were so uncomfortable. The walls are so so thin and some stupid girl bought a 7ft man back to the top bunk so I was terrified I’d get crushed the whole night.

    If you go to party and care about nothing else then you will enjoy this place. But if you also care about basic hygiene, secure rooms, and being able to sleep then this place is hell on earth. I feel sorry for the cleaning staff because every day they have to try and clean up the disgusting mess the toilets and showers become every night from people acting like animals. When you aren't kept awake from the DJ's single…

    I don’t normally leave bad reviews, but felt compelled to on this occasion. Upon arrival to the hostel, we found a non resident had entered into our room and was tripping out on one of the beds on drugs. Very distressing to see. Security is poor and the door to our room wouldn’t lock. We never really felt safe at night as anyone could have walked in. The tap in our bathroom didn’t work and no cleaning of the room was…

    AVOID this place at all cost. See the 1 star reviews before thinking Abt going here. There are much better places for cheaper price .These guys are nothing but scammer. Booked a private online and when get to place, I'm told all private rooms are booked up and I was suppose to send them an email to make a full payment before arriving. Nothing like this was mention on hostel world or neither did this place send an ema…

    Not even worth $1 a night. Worst hostel I have ever stayed at. The pillow cases smell like s***, bedsheets are dirty and the showers are even dirtier. Worst of all are the staff and the owners. Everyone is extremely aggressive and won’t hesitate to get physical with you even if it’s something as small as bringing in a beer from outside. Do not stay here….don’t support these people.

    Be very careful. This place is fun yeah but they charged me twice on my credit card when I checked out for some reason. There was no way to get a refund. It's pretty dishonest from them. The website didn't really help at all with the issue.
