This is a family run guesthouse and they are the nicest people you could hope to meet - so helpful with booking trips, onward travel, they know all the right people to go to. The rooms were very spacious, the decor was a bit wacky in colour scheme but clean, the air con worked really well and the shower was powerful and hot - great value for money and a location that is within 5mins walking to anywhere of interest in Krabi town

At first e staff are a little cold but they do warm up to you if you are nice back to them, like most Thais. It's only a little bit of a walk 5min to the markets etc but to get around krabi itself you either need your own transport or a tour. The beds are very firm which at first is weird but you do get used to it, the laundry service was good very quick and clean

We booked 2 nights and then stayed an extra 3 because we realized it was a great value! Air con is definitely a must. The staff was really nice, cleaned our room when we requested them to and gave us new towels, let us hang our laundry on the roof as well. The bottom floor bar/common area has all the ingredients for a social scene, but just isn't. The few people that hang around down there are most likely on their I-device, not really socializing (myself included). Overall a comfortable place!

One of the cheapest Hostel in Krabi. Stayed there for a transfer to Airport International. By the way they have private taxi (even at 5 am ) to the airport for 300 Baht. Near to the nightmarket. Good staff, ok room, but beware, no hot shower. Recommended though .

Really enjoyed this place. Good people, friendly staff, great music to chill in the evening (Led Zeppelin, Scorpions, Marley....).... The owner arranged 2 tours for us, and booked the bus back to Bangkok, moreover he helped us search for a hostel there too. The only downside was that it was a bit far from the beach, but really easy to reach by bus. Would highly recomand this place.

Great place, the room was spotless and comfy. Good atmosphere downstairs and the staff were friendly. Keen to sell tours etc but that's everywhere. Booked a snorkel day and boat trip with no problems, considered staying longer. Close to all Krabi town inc pier but not near the beach, FYI

Loved the classic rock playing at the bar. Loved that the bar didn't get rowdy and keep me up. Comfortable room, good A/C, and they do provide bath towels. The owner arranged a discount on a tour for me, and the woman who checked me in directed me to the night market & was very friendly. The showerhead was a bit wonky so the toilet roll got soaked during my shower, and the halls echo when people come in at night, but otherwise, a great place to sleep, and in a very central location.

Downstairs has a nice bar for just hanging out and meeting other hostel guests. Very nice staff of husband and wife. Clean and spacious rooms. No A/C but weather in January made it bearable

Great staff and really nice rooms with tv, ac, hot water etc. staff waited late on the night we arrived, which we really appreciated. Reasonably close to market and shopping centre. They can also arrange transfers very economically.

Very basic accommodation but you get what you pay for. Super fast Wifi was a bonus and the room was spacious enough. If you're after cheap digs then this is a goer but if you're looking for something a little more lavish then try elsewhere.
