    Bit of a walk up a hill to get there but definitely worth it, I would stay here again

    This hostel was so stunning, it has the friendliest staff and a cat that hangs out in the communal area in the evenings which was fun to come home to. They also had snorkels and towels and wet bags you could borrow, free ponchos, and breakfast (toast, tea, coffee, bananas, biscuits and hot chocolate).

    First contact through mail was a little difficult. Just misunderstanding I think. The walk up the hill is not long, but heavy with backpack, but you do it for the View. You hear the music from the beach louder then in the city.

    The View, amazing. Room is very spacious. You get a fresh towel every day, fresh bedsheets every other day. I was sick and they helped me getting my backpack to the Harbour. So nice.

    The walk up to it is tough in the heat and with a bag. But genuinely worth it for the view and amazing hospitality. Can’t fault it.

    First of all - the view really was amazing!!! Dorms were so big with lots of floor space. The staff couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. I left my phone behind one night and they kept it safe. Laundry done on site and was quicker than we thought. The staff clean the rooms every morning and make the beds AND give fresh towels. There’s free snacks, water and a fridge to use as well as snorkels if you want them.

    the view is so amazing this is the best hostel I ever stayed! waking up with that view every day was really lovely. there's a blackout curtains which is very helpful. there's lots of things available you can use for your trips like a dry bag. it's super comfortable and you have your own space in your bed. the stairs are great u don't even feel u are in a bunk bed!! also water available and snacks and banana for the day is very helpful! To get better just bringing some board games

    A bit more pricy than other hostels, but still worth it! And yes, you have to walk up a hill in the end, but for a nice view you always have to walk uphill. I don't get the complaints about it here.

    Must be the hostel with the best view in Koh Phi Phi, it's simply awesome. Common area is kind of nice outside with the terrace. The washing service was great and fast for the normal street price. Took just a few hours. Staff super friendly. Everything very clean. Nice stairs into the upper bed. Awesome and quiet, although you could hear some music from the beach parties, but that's not the hostels fault of course

    This might be the most amazing hostel I’ve stayed in. Amazing view, super nice staff, close to everything but away from it, lol. They folded our things and gave fresh linens and towels every day. Great laundry service.

    Phi phi itself is a little bit too much but you may like it if you're young... walk up is hot but doable, esp if someone meets you to pick up bags (free)

    Great view, nice staff, cool (temp wise) rooms, and good facilities.

    This hostel is great! The staff is very accommodating and you can sometimes get your bag taken up the hill for you. There’s free food and water, the rooms and sheets are changed everyday and the common area has such an amazing view no matter what time of day you are there. You can hear the music but it’s to be expected with places like this and not to discourage anyone interested (take earplugs if needed).

    nice hostel to stay! large room, big beds, heavy curtains that blocked out the light, and of course the amazing terrace with the view. i did find the noise from the music of the clubs to bother me inside the rooms. the bathrooms also had a slight odour to them. still a great place to stay!

    Only thing that wasn’t ideal was the noise from the beach was pretty loud until 3am however that isn’t the hostels fault the music is just very loud and the bathrooms aren’t the largest but do the job

    Stating the obvious the view was phenomenal and the seating outside is a good area to socialise with fellow stayers. This hostel also has a fridge on entrance where you can store water snacks etc. Lastly the dorm was very spacious and curtains were completely blackout
