A very social hostel! But they come with rules and the noise stops at night around 11pm! It’s a good balance of a social as well as a comfortable place to stay! The free dinner at night is a great touch!

Really good stay, the property is lovely! Amazing view and the pool is great to cool off. Air con worked well and it was comfortable. A slight walk to the town but if you don’t mind walking/ rent a scooter then you will be fine! We walked and we didn’t mind. The owner was lovely.

    This is a super cute guesthouse! I arrived to Pai with a low budget and I really wanted to be close to the center. The location is amazing, the room is simple and cozy, really kind host, and a fun balcony to hung out. I think it’s perfect for a solo traveler looking for a simple place in a great location. Definitely value for money!

    The hostel is absolutely amazing! Great location, not even 10min walk from town, the pool and the view are incredible, the pets are super cute and friendly. The staff is amazingly friendly and super helpful with everything. Dorms are comfy, spacious, cleaned and well maintained. This is a 11/10 hostel for sure! They have food and drinks with a decent price. Loved it so much I had to extend for one more night.

    The lady who runs the hostel is amazing! She can help you with literally anything - she can book your transport for the cheapest rate going, she got me a safety pin when i had a splinter and just in general i really felt like she was looking out for me which was so lovely especially as a solo female traveller. The beds too are super comfy with njce curtains and bathrooms njce too plus the garden is gorgeous - super nice place to chill you wouldn’t believe it’s right next to walking street - location could not be more perfect

    The best hostel we have stayed at in Thailand by far! Rooms are very clean and new, shower is amazing! Very sociable hostel! Bar open every night with good night life (special shout out to the bar man who was so lovely). The bar has all sorts of games out for you to get involved with… beer pong, connect 4, Uno, cards etc… met so many great people at this hostel! Great location and staff are very welcoming. Pool is clean and refreshing when it’s sunny. Cannot fault this hostel at all! Perfect for young backpackers who love to socialise!

    I think this is the best hostel in Pai! Good atmosphere and many opportunities to meet new people. The managers are very involved with the guests. Yoga classes are offered every day and trips are organized. The rooms are hygienic and comfortable enough. Good value for money. I would definitely go back here and regret not being able to stay longer.
