Liked: clean, good value room,
Disliked: A little far from the main town. Could be tricky to find as no clear sign. If walking from town, turn right at the school. walk down the duel carriageway for 1-1.5km. turn right at the coffee shop on the corner - (opposite a -eleven).

Liked: The good thing about this place is that the rooms are really clean and well maintained. The bathroom was spotless and the double bed nice and comfy. There's plenty of storage in the rooms and the TV has about 5 English channels, just in case you fancy a spot of TV at any point. It's very quiet in the area as well so it's easy enough to get a good nights sleep, though this is due to the fact it is away from the centre of Krabi.
Disliked: As mentioned by some previous reviews the lady who runs the place speaks barely any English, while she is very sweet this was slightly problematic to begin with when checking in. Though to be fair I could do with improving my Thai skills too! However this is only a minor negative. Also it is about a 15 minute walk to the centre, so if you'd rather be central then this could be a slight issue.

Liked: The Property was very clean, we stayed in the basic double bed room with fan, personally this did not seem basic as we had a TV with 80channels (5 English, a fridge and en suite) the lady running the desk spoke very little english but this cause no problems... Fantastic little stay, we relised on the last day that instead of walking into town for a bus to Ao Nang we could have grab it as it passed the hostel every 15 minutes. Lesson Learn!
Disliked: No much to dislike, exactly as it says on the tin... Although remember to leave your key in the drop box when going out on an evening or you might get locked out :) Only happened once, but still after a few drinks not what you want.

Liked: Very clean hostel with good sized room and close to the centre of Krabi (about 10 minutes walk). The owner was friendly and tried to be helpful although speaks very little English. I would recommend printing out your hostel bookers booking sheet so that you can show this when you arrive (rather than just taking reference number, etc)
Disliked: Nothing - this is a great value hostel
