We stayed a day in this hostel and we stole the credit cards that were inside the suitcase into the room while we were on the beach. With those cards made ​​purchases for 1300 dollars. I would not recommend anyone stay at this hostel because ours is not the only theft of the safe tipo.La you have this on a table which is very easy to remove from the room and not the bulwark against the wall. It is very unsafe. Would not recommend anyone staying in this hostel.

Lots of cute wee touches in the rooms. Great price for the rooms and easy to get a local bus from the pier there.

Stayed for two nights in Koh Samui, both here in a standard room. After looking at their website they are not what they have advertise. "Direct access" to the beach and the pool means crossing the road, and going through another resort. The room (302) had some problems. A hole in the ceiling allowed salamanders ain our room. On Koh Samui, there are cheaper guesthouses, and nicer resorts (can get deals online). Go with those instead of this place.

I have been traveling South East Asia now for a year and a half and this was by far the most disgusting place I have ever been. I booked with Hostelworld and had given my deposit. When we got to the guesthouse we asked to see the room. The man refused and then said our room was taken-throwing back our passports.I said we have already paid the deposit. He rolled his eyes threw a key at us and pointed down the street. The room was filthy, the ceiling was collapsing, and the locks were not secure
