7.5Verified guest“Had a fantastic time at this charming hostel run by a lovely Thai couple. Clean and comfortable, with a friendly vibe that made it easy to meet people. The location was ideal for me—quieter area but still just a 15-minute walk to the lively part of town. Rooms and showers were great, and the hosts were amazing.”

The garden was perfect for relaxing with a beer and chatting with the wise old man. Rooms were clean and spacious, with curtains, AC, and a fan. The housekeeper took great care of us, and the staff always had a smile. The location was quiet and peaceful, ideal for a good night's sleep. I also appreciated being able to leave my bag during a side trip. Highly recommend!”
