Squareone Reviews

The single best thing about this place is the terrificly friendly staff. They are all really lovely ladies, and nothing I asked was ever a problem. The location is handy, with patong's main bangla road party area only a 10-15 minute walk, depending if you stroll or walk quickly. It was also very clean. I'd go back again, if I visited Patong.

Has a Pool, nice staff and is out of the intense zone of Patong, stay here :)

great private room, dorm was also nice but not secure. location was a 10-20 minute walk from the "heart" of patong beach, but patong is crazy so i actually liked the relative seclusion.

Nice hostel/guesthouse. A much quieter atmosphere (especially for Patong beach), but this may have been due to the guests at the time. Staff are friendly enough, but not exceptional. Rooms are very clean and spacious (stayed in a private), however I would not necessarially class it as "luxury" accomodation, as there were no facilities that I did not experiance at other hostels not advertising as such. Would stay there again, but only for a "quieter" experiance.

I was happy with my stay at the hostel until I used the laundry service the day before I was due to check out. Unfortunately, not all my clothing was returned to me and the missing item also happened to be the most expensive item. The laundry service is outsourced to "Safe Laundry" in Patong. I brought the missing item to the attention of the hostel staff who then contacted the laundry owner by telephone. They then brought me to the laundry itself. The owner was adamant all clothing items were returned to me. One member of the hostel staff also asked how I can prove I did not get everything back when I requested to go to the local police station to make a report. We went to the police station but were left to wait to meet with the correct police authority. In the end, I asked to leave because there was no point to make a complaint as I was leaving Phuket in a matter of hours and I had accepted the fact that the particular item would not be returned. NO APOLOGY was offered by either the staff of the hostel or the laundry. It was a very disappointing way in which to end my trip after (luckily for me) more than one year of travelling without incident. If you stay in this hostel do not use the laundry service.

Great hostel, has all the necessary facilities, and even a safe box in the room. There is a pool, and internet as well which was really nice. It is well-located as well - close to Bangla Road, but off the main street so it is not too noisy. The only issue I had was that the bathroom was a bit dirty.

Couldn't rate the place higher. We're two girls travelling and initially were greeted with topless drinking men by the pool. We held our breaths to prepare ourselves. Then got to the room which wa

Best place, will be back again!!

Very clean room and helpful staff. Great that the computers in the lobby are free to use. The pool may be small but it's a nice thing for a hostel - great for cooling off. The only minor minor thing was its position next to a fowl looking river but it didn't affect us at all.

For me the place was almost perfect. Not only because they were extremly friendly staff and cleaness of the rooms, but also becasue is a quiet place, but very near to the party area. If I go back to Patong I will repeat in the Squareone.

Location is good, more an hotel than hostel. Dorm was only 4 beds

More of a hotel than a hostel. No lock on dorm room door so security very poor. Location is good as in central place for Patong. I switched rooms to a private room but room was not cleaned after 2 days. Staff were nice and helpful. Overall good hostel for a good price but a few vital things let it down.

very clean and good place to stay, close to patong beach and nice staff are very helpful.thanks
