Great staff but the area isn’t great, and the bedsheets smelled as though they had not been dried properly after their last wash. It was pleasant enough though and served a purpose.

    One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. It felt like the layout and facilities were well thought through. The lockers, the stairs leading to the upper bunks, everything. Separate dressing room for females. Everything was so clean. Swimming pool, very nice communal areas. Free toast, jam and butter for breakfast.

    Firstly the dorms are awesome: great AC, really comfy beds, pretty well soundproofed. The toilets are frequently cleaned and I especially loved the showers. Communal area is really colourful and fun. Great location right in the heart of Kata. I think the price was so cheap cause it’s a relatively new place but dang, so so cheap compared to neighbouring hostels.
