“Nice, but really, really far away from town”

person found this review helpful

We looked to place up on the map before booking, but managed to totally underestimate the distance to Phuket town. You definitely cannot walk into or back from town, not even without backpacks.

“Middle of Nowhere”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2010

“WARNING...DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOSTEL.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 March 2010

I arrived at the hostel at 10.00 pm, after my flight was delayed...the hostel was in the middle of no where and was full of scafholding and looked like a derelict building.No one was around the place was in darkness which made me feel very insecure travelling alone. I eventually got in and no one could speak English and they... More
