Overall, I had a great stay during my beach vacation, even during the high season. While the price for a hostel might seem a bit high at first, it’s actually quite reasonable compared to the surrounding options. The bed was comfortable and spacious, even for me as a tall person (188 cm). The location was excellent, Karon Beach was just a short five-minute walk away, and there were plenty of restaurants, shops (including 7-Eleven), and bars nearby. The smart bus station was also close, which helped me save quite a bit on transportation. The host was very helpful, and there was always someone available to ask for help or advice, which made my stay even more convenient. Even when I accidentally sat on the curtain and ripped it off, the host fixed it quickly and in a very friendly manner 🙏 There was also a free safe in the room, which gave me peace of mind to securely store my valuables. Additionally, the room opens with a code, which was great because I didn’t have to carry a key or card around. Since the room accommodates only four people, it was much quieter than other hostels, allowing for plenty of peaceful moments without constant noise from other guests. If you’re traveling alone, this is probably the best budget-friendly option in Karon, offering a great balance of comfort, location, and affordability.

Great little hostel ran by the most beautiful lady Kim. She couldn’t have been any nicer or more welcoming to us. Fridge filled with water you can take whenever you like. Wake up to eggs and toast with tea and coffee. Fresh towels supplied everyday and always kept clean. Only a 10 minute walk from the beach. Such great value for money. Would definitely recommend.

The location was perfect because it was really close to the beach also in a very vibrant area of patong, although it was a crowded district which i loved but when we went into our room at night, we could not hear any noise especially after 10 pm, they would stop the music in their courtyard. The other thing was the breakfast, it was until 6 PM so we didn’t have to wake up early. Overall it was a clean place. The staffs in the restaurant were very respectful. Also Charlie in the reception was very very very polite.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
