The vibe here was so good, it felt like a community. It is very clean, and it's so close to really nice beaches of you have a scooter. 
Such beautiful surroundings, and so cool having a pool and an outdoor cinema. 
The owner is super friendly helpful and genuine too. 
Definitely want to come back:)

Loved this place

Let me begin by warning for the sake of your trip, never book here.

We arrived in Koh Phangan and the taxi drivers herded us along to a taxi that would bring us to the hostel. Once the taxi was full (about 8 people) my group of 3 were told we would have to pay extra for our trip to the hostel as it was so out of the way.

We drove along the roads on what can only be described as an idyllic island. Absolutely beautiful scenery all around. Wasn't a long drive at all so we couldn't understand why we would have to pay extra for the journey. We took a right onto a small beaten track and drove by locals' houses, the hostel was secluded, not in an area of other hostels. When we get off the taxi we are pleasantly greeted by a goat, with thoughts of frolicking in the jungle with the goat dancing in our minds. The fun stopped there.

As we walked towards the hostel I can honestly say I have never seen a bigger hole of an establishment in my life. The pool was broken, covered in green gunk reminiscent of the slime from Nickelodeons' Kid Choice Awards. All surrounding "facilities" looked as if they had been attacked by a particularly ferocious group of termites. Everything was hanging in a state of disrepair and rot. The fridges were all empty bar the apparent mould growing on the shelves and a whiteboard in the "chill area" reading "money under pillow" "key under book" gave the impression of just how high quality the security was going to be at this joint.

When looking down at your feet you quickly realised the hostel was actually a popular destination with the ant community. I had never realised before that over population is a problem in this species, but you were guaranteed to be filled with anxiety and dread about setting your bag down for a second never mind the thought of sitting down to contemplate just how awful the situation was.

First impressions aside, the lack of any human life was astounding. Apparently we were the only guests with the stupidity to book this place. Upon looking around to see where exactly the reception was or maybe even our room we were again comforted in the security of the hostel with every room lying wide open. Upon exploring the rooms we found that the closest thing resembling the "Standard 3 Bed Private" that we had booked was in fact a bunk bed with a double mattress overhanding the bottom bunk. Said mattresses were covered in what can only be taken as a mixture of poo and piss stains, some of which seemed to make its way up the bare concrete wall. The "ensuite" was in fact a corner of the room separated from the bunk beds by a partition wall. Combine this with the 12 bunk bed room, which resembled something like a slave trade ship with a generous 10cm spacing between the 6 bunks crammed into a 6ft by 10ft shack, and you got the general sense of a dodgy brothel. I had immediate flashbacks to scenes from Taken and only wished Liam Neeson was there to comfort us.

Further exploration and attempted interaction with no english neighbours to ask where the owner was led us to the concrete decision of just how segregated from island civilisation we actually were. I immediately decided the extra taxi fare was their attempt to bleed us of our money before we were killed and fed to the goat.

In their defence, if you weren't feeling the slime pool there was also a questionable hot tub on the roof #funtimeswithfriends

So after waiting for approximately 30 minutes to an hour and enduring a very aggressive existential crisis, someone finally arrived on a motorbike. It was the owner, whose greeting message was that he had waited for us at the dock. He had waited there in order to inform us that the pool was broken so if we didn't want to stay at the hostel he would understand. If that was the only problem he saw with the place then clearly Thailand is in dire need of an optician.

The lack of preparation of bedding and food and drink led me to the surprise (lol) realisation that he in fact knew the place was a piece of dung and we would never stay there in a million years. However, rather than email ahead to warn us of this he decided to wait until our last minute arrival on the island. This complete lack of professionalism and disregard for our well being by leaving us to find last minute accommodation is just ridiculous.

He gave us the wifi address so we could look up last minute accommodation on the island and offered to ring us a taxi. Said taxi never arrived and we had to walk back up the beaten road and hail one down on the main island road. No offer of refund for the deposit for the accommodation nor the two overpriced taxi fares we had to pay in order to experience the dump.

I'm quite honestly shocked by the previous positive reviewers and would definitely want to know what exactly their drink was spiked with on arrival if they even slightly saw any positive attributes to this hostel.

I now only hold a deep pity for the goat, who is unable to escape this rotten, filthy hostel.
