Boasting a concierge service, this property also has a restaurant and a terrace. The hostel also provides free WiFi as well as a paid airport shuttle service. The property is beautiful and situated near a waterfall and a temple, where you can enjoy the soothing sounds of nature. The street is long and lined with lush greenery, and there are bikes available for rent, so you won’t have to walk far. Plus, there’s a restaurant and a fantastic coffee shop right next door. The hostel features four private rooms with bunk beds and fans. The atmosphere is cozy and quiet, making it perfect for those who want to escape the crowds. There’s also a laundry machine available for use at a cost of 40 Baht, but you’ll need 10 Baht coins to operate it. Anjar is incredibly friendly and helpful, and he even drove us to Nathon Pier. I highly recommend staying here—it's definitely one of my favorite accommodations!

At the hostel, all rooms have a terrace. All guest rooms will provide guests with a microwave. The room was very comfortable and clean. It had all you need for comfortable stay. It was also cleaned by request during our long stay. Common kitchen well equipped, had mixer, microwave, toaster, rice cooker and gas stove with all utilities. I cooked breakfasts and sometimes even dinners there. Plenty areas where you can chill in common area. Good WiFi. Location is quiet and a bit distant from supermarkets, atm and exchange. But stuff was very accommodating and helped us with the ride for very friendly price. Also you can rent a scooter and it will be very convenient. There are few nice restaurants in a walking distance, beach is 400 meters from the place. It’s ok to swim in the evening, but in the morning time ebb tide is strong and you will need swimming shoes to go through line of stones to reach water. Overall we had great stay there.
