Great visit! You wouldn't expect Jomtien to be as nice as it is from the street view but the rooms are massive and the staff is extremely friendly. Some complain it's too far from the beach but we found the location to be ideal - you can see the ocean from the front door, only a 2 minute walk; it's on a quiet side street away from the crazy shops and crazier tourists, but still close enough to join in the madness. I definitely recommend Jomtien Beach over Pattaya Beach for peaceful relaxation.

The staff was super friendly and very helpful and was able to answer questions about the surrounding area. The hostel is very clean. The hostel is at the end of a soi and dark at night, but nothing to worry about.

They did not have proper air conditioning, just a fan so the room was really hot. Also woke up in the morning to find ants in the room. Staff were friendly, but hostel was empty.

Recommended hostel for backpackers. Clean, secure, helpful staff. Even got taxi arranged at 4.00 am. Thanks. Check for wi-fi connectivity. Take converters-adapters for electrical gadgets. May not be always available at reception.

If we ended up in Pattaya, Im sure glad we ended up in Jomtien Beach rather than Pattaya beach. Much quieter than down town. The hostel was clean and nice, we had a big room... the beds were hard as rocks but we had a big fridge and a tv, so that was nice. The hostel guy was very nice and accomodating and the staff was helpful. I would stay again.

This hostel is a bit far from the main street, suitable for those who like walking or sporting. Each bed in a room should be accompanied with a private chest. However, the services from the hostel are supplied at the best prices, and I saved much money for other activities. I think I will return here for the next time.
