It is super clean, and Mint, on the front desk is amazing. My second night i was attacked by bed bugs. i was placed in another room and the bed was fine. i would advise staying here. just avoid the room with bed A1 and if you want to buy a bus ticket head to the station directly. If the front desk tries to tell you that there is only vip which cost 1200 baht or the regular bus which cost 800 baht, its not true. you can get a bus to bangkok, air conn for 575.

A lovely little hostel to stay in - if staying in the 10 bed dorm, it can be a little hard to sleep if people are watching films downstairs but generally fine. Night receptionist was absolutely lovely!

Very good and only one hostel in Phuket town. The hostel is very clean and well maintained and modern. Very nice common room with lots of dvds. The location is good too with local buses to the beach just outside. Will recommend it.

If you want to hang out in Phuket town, it is a good place to stay. close to bus stop, to go to other areas of Phuket, like beach, temples, Phi Phi, the Dorm room condition is pretty bad, and very hot. But the lounge room is really comfy, so most people hang out in Lounge room, as long as it suits you.

We only stayed for one night, but it was so modern and friendly, with a lovely living room to chat to other backpackers. Good location if u need some last minute buys before leaving Thailand

One of the staff members was very rude, very very very rude, though of course Thai people cannot ruin a holiday for any traveller, it leaves a very poor impression of Thai people. Very unprofessional. I will never go back there on subsequent visits to Phuket.
