Very clean rooms, bathroom and common space. (2 shared toilets and 2 showers for 4 room, toiletries was available in the showers) Anjar (the host) was very helpful. He picked us from the Nathon harbor when we arrive and dropped us to Lipa Noi harbor when we are leaving and he didn’t charge anything for these. Microwave, free water, coffee and tea in the common area all day long and we love the peaceful feeling of the garden. The scooter that they arranged for us was in good condition. 11 points out of 10.

A home away from home. Kind and caring people from the guests to the locals to the amazing staff. The owner is Superman! Peaceful, relaxing, one of the cleanest hostels I’ve been in. Respectful! 100/200m away from the beach, local smoothie lady is a must. Breakfast served around 6/7am from a local roadside restaurant. 7-Eleven is 5 mins by bike.

I cannot rate this hostel highly enough! It is simply the BEST in Koh Samui. The staff, Wan & Piak, went above and beyond everyday during our stay, from helping us finding a rental scooter place, to asking how our day was, and overall just being such lovely helpful people, they definitely made our stay feel like home ( the fluffy blankets were a bonus too!!). All of the facilities were cleaned every single day, the rooms smelt amazing, and the location itself was very good! We felt so sad to leave here- we absolutely loved it, and would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in Koh Samui! ❤️
