Summary of traveller reviews

Argdivan Beach Hostel in Playa Samara offers a peaceful stay with incredibly friendly and helpful staff, including many welcoming volunteers. Guests appreciate the comfortable beds with privacy curtains, fans, and plugs. The location is quiet yet within easy walking distance to the beach and town. Some recent feedback notes that the kitchen utensils could be updated and that rooms can get hot without air conditioning.

Overall a pretty great hostel located a bit out of town but walking distance to everything, which was very nice. It was a bit dirty, but not anything you wouldn’t expect from a beach hostel. They help us a lot with tours and really recommend their Ocean Safari! The only bad thing was the WiFi being quite unreliable, but otherwise a great hostel with great staff

Pro: friendly Staff and a little excluded from the busy town, but still in great walking distance to town and beach Cons: one of the dirtier hostels I’ve been to.

Nice and chill place. Facilities are nice. Quite location, everything is close by. Internet is good and stable. Kitchen is good, you have everything you need. My only complain is, that when I tried to pay, they wanted usd and since I am not from the states I don't carry any usd, just local currency. They charged me very bad rate (usd to colones). When I asked why such a bad rate, they couldn't explain why.
