This hostel was so awesome we stayed there twice on two separate occasions! And when we returned we saw many of the same people there, who were still just chilling out! It is clean, bright and funky. The dorms are quite open plan and all have locker access and air con. The bathrooms are spacious and clean with hot water. The common room is the highlight of this hostel. There is free internet access, comfy couches and a heap of beanbags, flat screen tv and a massive collection of new dvds/movies/tv shows. There is a kitchen with cooking facilities and breakfast is available for about 70Baht. The hostel is located in ranong rd, which is home to a big market- mainly food and there are heaps of buses that go to the airport and local beaches at the door of your hostel. However, be aware this hostel is located in Phuket Town- so it is about a 20 -30 min scooter ride out to Patong Beach (the main tourist area).

Very nice hostel. I enjoyed my stay there. Staff are nice and helpful. They have a lot of brochures and can arrange a tour for you.It is far from beaches though, but you can easilu get bus just in front of the hostel or can rent a bike. I met and got new friends here and went out in groups to do things or just had fun watching movies in the living room in the evening. The place is safe and clean, has adequate bathrooms and showers and the beds were comfortable.

It's easy to get around to other places such as; Patong, Kata, and Karon Beaches because you can hop on the local buses just in front the hostel. The atmosphere is cozy and clean also they provided free internet and awesome common room where you can just sit and watch any movies from the extensive DVD collection. The staffs are very helpful in giving direction and providing information you need. It is a good place to hang and meet a lot of people.
