The owner was so flexible and helpful when we had to make last minute changes to our itinerary due to cancelled flights, and it was so easy to make ferry bookings to visit the islands through them. They have WiFi, are centrally located right in downtown, and the rooms were clean and comfy. I would definitely stay here again!"

Lub Sbuy Hostel
2.0 star property
8.4 out of 10, Very good, (19)
"Wanted a cheap stay as I flew in late night from the US and was leaving the next morning for Krabi. This hostel was fine for what it was. The room was clean and the staff were friendly. The shower was fine. The mattress was too firm, almost hard. The location doesn't have much around except a few random restaurants and such. They have some chairs in front and I noticed people sitting around but didn't appear to social. ANyway, it was fine for what it was but I wouldn't go out of my way to stay...
