Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I loved the hostel, it was a short walk away from the beach. Beds were very comfy and the dorm was pretty quiet. The hostel was very clean and is a great place if you travel alone and want to get to know other people. You have a lot of places to hang out in the hostel area. They provide free drinking water and lots of different food and drinks. I think this has been one of the best hostels I’ve been to so far!

    This is the perfect place to stay for budget travellers in Kon Phayam. The huts are very nice and cosy with a lovely balcony to chill outside and have a smoke. We weren't bothered by mosquitoes at all. Even though there was no aircon it was not that hot and usually I can't survive without aircon at all. It's right beside the best and cheapest restaurants in Koh payam and walking distance to everything on the island.

    The cheapest place in Phayham but it's good enough for the price. I stayed for almost two weeks. The owner seems to never be around but there is a lady wondering around who doesn't speak english but surely you'll find her very charming and helpful, she even did my laundry. Also the hostel has a common area in front with 2 hammocks and free water. Surely you'll meet other amazing people staying here. Don't forget to bring your own lock if you want to use the lock.

    Om and Ing the owners are amazing and interact with all the guests, the hostel has good vibes and energy and the people staying there soon become part of a koh payam family as soon as you walk in. went to stay for two days and ended up staying for 10 days. great location near restaurants and bars and lets you know what events are happening on in the evenings. people that don’t even stay at the hostel go there to drink and chill because it is just a VIBE. Also close to longbeach.

    Double room basic and clean, but cheap for Phayam, Hostel is cleaned so showers and toilets are OK to use

    best place to meet fellow backpackers. we did something together every day and night. felt like a big family. the owner sets it up so beautifully you never get bored. the location is a quick walk to long beach, and there's good food at the hostel and all around it. bed was comfy, bathrooms were clean, owner helped book a boat and bus to Bangkok. 10/10 experience

    Visited during the end of rain season and Koh Phayam was very peaceful and beautiful, not many people around. There was no others in the hostel at this time, so it was a good place to take a break. Hostel itself is clean, rooftop is nice, everything is quite new. Cheap hostel, cheap scooters
