Excellent stay!

Everything was first class.

Just a 2 minute walk from the bus station. The check-in process was very easy and smooth. The hostel

Just a 2 minute walk from the bus station. The check-in process was very easy and smooth. The hostel was very clean, tidy, organized and the staff was very welcoming. We liked that the hostel is a 3-5 minute walk from the center of town and away from the loud music at night. We ended up booking a second night when returning from Khao Son National Park-Bungalow adventure. The hostel also provides/facilitates information for tours; like I said the staff is awesome!

Great comfortable option for budget-conscious travellers

Good air conditioning, free coffee/tea, clean bedding and towels, clean common areas. The staff is really helpful and kind and helped me book a single day tour of the national park. Would stay here again!

The Hostel was totally ok for the money and the owners were very kind! :)

the breakfast was very basic, just toast, some fruits and egg. But every morning a different eggs: scramble egg, fried egg, omelet and different fruit: watermelon, pineapple, ... .

Perfect stay

Was such a lovely stay here. Room is perfect with curtains for privacy. Bathrooms are clean and good size. The owner is such a lovely lady, so nice and helps with anything. Also if you wanna do a tour at the national park just ask her :) Highly recommend staying here.

Amazing owner, free breakfast, minimal privacy

Owner was so lovely & helpful, she was able to book us onto the Khao Sok national park tour and provided us support with what we needed to pack & even lent us a dry bag we could borrow. The showers had good water pressure & there was a free (basic) breakfast with free use of tea/coffee/water 24/7

The room itself was very large, with only 1 bedroom in the hostel, the curtains were similar to that of a hospital/shower and didn’t feel like there was much privacy within the room. The toilets/showers, although all working, had small creatures in, such as lizards, ants etc. I know this is natural, but could have been a little cleaner. Overall, great place & good value for money

10.0 / 10.0

Amazing!

The room was excellent, air conditioned with high levels of privacy. The breakfast was great and everything was organised for the tour in khao sok national park. However the best thing about the property was the hosts, who were extremely kind and lovely. They were always happy to help and had a great sense of humour.

Great accommodation if you don’t mind a short walk

Clean spacious dorms and bathroom. Breakfast was included and very good.

A little out of the way to the Main Street of town, have to walk about 10 minutes for most food options

Lovely hostel

The lady who owns the place is so nice! Helped me a lot with booking my trips and the price for the trips is also good /not more expensive than other providers. She even came with me and let me use her scooter to see the monkeys at the temple. Room is clean and big. Location is close to the bus station but still in a 10min walking distance to the center of town.

Would recommend not to book transportation here, the company there use is not good! A normally 2h trip took over 5h and that excluded the 30min the van was late. No one mentioned it was not a direct van/bus (what I thought I booked) and the driver did not even want to drive close to my destination and wanted me to get an other taxi to get where I needed to be. There was no compensation after I made them aware of the issue.

The owners are so lovely and welcoming, very helpful! Came here from the Google review and didn’t disappoint! They cook a lovely breakfast for 80 BHT great before doing a tour (hassle free)! Clean, and beds are comfortable and pricing is a backpackers heaven! Definitely recommend

lovely staff and clean hostel

loveliest staff at the hostel! bedrooms were relatively clean and the location was okay compared to the rest of the road.

the bathrooms were not the best and had a lot of bugs in there

7.0 / 10.0

Good

quiet location a couple minutes further away from the busy part of the street. place was really clean and relaxed.

the bed was rock hard. some may enjoy that but I like something much softer.

7.0 / 10.0

would recommend if you plan on booking tours through them

The bed set up was nice and private and bathroom facilities were clean. They offere free tea and coffee too. proximity to the Khao Sok van station was handy.

The owners warm attitude turned pretty cold towards me after I decided to book a tour through a different hostel that offered a better deal for the same price.

4.0 / 10.0

I would recommend to book a different host in Khao Sok if you want to meet people.

The Hostel is clean, but not very social.

I got food poisoning from a vegetarian Massaman Curry at the hostel. I wouldn‘t recommend eating there if you don’t want to get really sick for two days.

9.0 / 10.0

Superb

The hosts are two incredibly friendly women who just opened the hostel after the pandemic. Hence, it it’s pretty new regarding its interior and look. It is basic but you’ll find everything that you need ☺️ what stands out is that you get served breakfast before your tour, you can help yourself to have a coffee whenever you want and they will take you back to the bus station. All in all a perfect stay if you want to see the national park ☺️

There were quite a lot of small ants in the bathrooms, which was ok since it’s Thailand but surprisingly much.

Great Hostel Option if you are heading into National Park!

I stayed here for 1 night and used their 2 day 1 night tour into the National Park. This is perfect for budget backpackers. The hospital-style curtains that separate the single beds work well to provide privacy. The shower is okay, the fans keep the room super chilly (I actually run cold so it was too cold for me but this is good for most others). The staff are very lovely but do have limited English, so here are the answers I needed now that I have them, in case this helps someone else: - Khao Sok is basically one street. When you get dropped off here via bus/shuttle, this is the nearest and easiest hostel to walk to. The rest of the street has all the restaurants and other hostels, like the well-known Coco hostel. - You can book a 2 day 1 night tour with this Hostel, it is organized by them and is very similar to the one done by the more famous places. You can book a tour with a different operator and get picked up here as well. The price will be about the same. - I did the tour with them, you can choose to either leave your big bag at the hostel and get dropped back to the hostel, following the national park tour, or you can take your big bag with you and transfer directly somewhere else after, like surat thani.

Acceptable not mind blowing though!

Clean and functional.

There are better hostels in town, closer to the restaurants and park too. My main grizzle is the beds being separated by a curtain, makes one feel as if one is in hospital. It was OK but Coco Hostel is much better and cheaper too. But it sells out quickly!

Lovely

The family that runs the hostel are really lovely and sweet. They gave me good tips, lend me their flashlight and even came to find me and give me a ride with the scooter to make sure I made it on time for a tour. They will take good care of you. The space was clean and peaceful, hot shower, good beds, delicious food. I also had lots of fun watching them join forces to chase away the monkeys that were trying to steal food 😁 Extra bonus: little, curious and playful kittens will keep you company 🐈

Would have stayed longer if there was availability

Easy two minute walk from where the local bus drops you on the highway. On the quiet end of town but easy ~1km walk restaurants/bars and to entrance of national park. Very clean. Small but decent and fair priced menu on site. No pressure sales for tours. And the lady owner is super! I had a sprained knee and she offered and dropped me by scooter at the national park entrance and was somehow conveniently there to give me a lift home after I was done. She also dropped me at the highway bus stop on the day that I left.

Lovely Hostel ran by 2 lovely ladies. Kind and caring. If you book one of the tours with them, they let you borrow a dry bag - a must have for the tour. Many of the other hostels didn’t do this. The beds are comfortable, but on the firmer side. The privacy curtain was a nice touch. All the facilities were very clean. The food is all freshly made, and tastes amazing! The outside space is perfect for chilling and socialising too! My favourite hostel to date, couldn’t recommend more! Thank you both so much 💛

sweetest staff, super hard beds

super helpful staff in the morning to cheer me up. she gave me a small breakfast, even though it wasn’t included, and she took me to the bus station on her scoter in the morning.

unfortunately it was impossible for me to sleep here. every little noise go through the thin curtains and is amplified in the big room. it is the absolute hardest bed I’ve encountered during my one month of traveling in Thailand. Rock. Hard.

Great hostel!

Very welcoming staff, they want you to have the best stay, you can easily book tours trough the hostel and see khaosok, either the hostel is not that far from khao sok so you can have a walk through the jungle by yourself if you want to. In short, great hostel, great location, great staff :)))

One of the best hostels we had on our trip so far with a family atmosphere.

It was a great stay at Kaho Sok National Park, the woman who owns the hostel is really caring and gave us everything we needed. It is a new hostel with just one dorm what made it pretty cozy.

loved our stay and one of our favourite hostels of our Thailand trip down to the owners. definitely would stay again

The owners of the property were amazing. They were so welcoming and friendly and could not do enough for us as guests. They supplied a lovely breakfast and were always checking in on us and even offered to help sew one of our broken bags. Always smiling and friendly. It was nice to have a single bed without a bunk bed also. There was also towels given in beautiful shapes. Nice hot showers too.

The only real complaint was the mattresses were really hard and not that comfortable. It was a small walk in to town but that was ok but there are limited street lights so you have to be comfortable walking in the dark especially if alone. There were some bugs but only in the bathroom but you are in the jungle so excepted and they kept it as clean as possible.

A great stay

A nice private and quiet place! There's only one room on this property that hosts the 6 beds and it's at ground level, so no stairs! Pictures are accurate and the room offers lots of privacy and space. Bathroom was clean and hot water was available. Free coffee, tea and water. Beds are a bit hard, even compared to the generally stiffer beds I've found in Thailand. I was greeted and assisted by a woman that was very kind but wasn't as fluent in English to converse if you have more complicated needs. However, she did service my laundry, booked me a bus to leave, and made me free breakfast! I was the only guest in the room during my stay as most backpackers gravitate towards the 2-3 more popular hostels in town but they were fully booked and I'm happy to have found this one.

The property is close to the bus station, but a 10-15 minute walk deeper into town where all the restaurants are. I walked back alone at night and it was quite dark but overall, I think the town is very safe.
