Perfect for backpackers

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Jul 6, 2013
Good place to sleep for a few nights. No unnecessary luxuries. You definitely get what you pay for.
I came here with my uncle. Great staff and coffee. Minimal rooms with exactly what you need. It has private rooms and shared rooms for those who don't need much privacy. Great experience to meet new interesting people. Good location in the city a bit far from all the beaches though. But all in all very cheap clean comfortable hostel.

this hostel is located 5 min drive to ferry to koh phi phi, koh lanta. It was one of the most trendy hostels i stayed in in thailand. Decoration worked out very well. The owner is very helpful to arrange you airport and ferry transfer. Just make sure you are aware of the Pier of your boat as many depart from different locations. and my taxi ended up at the wrong pier.
Breakfast was correct. would stay there again for a next visit to phi phi.

Room tip: we had topfloor with a small terrace. was nice for some evening drinks.

2w is definitely a superb place to stay at phuket town after our stay at island for a few day!! The room is so comfort like home sweet home,the ambience is cosy and environment friendly,all the staff work with passion,it really warmth. Please dont be shy to ask the place of interest and where the good food served,I bet you wouldn't want to miss it!! It is all nearby! Thai massage,local foods,student art street,and many more... They give you the brilliant ideas to enjoy more! Ohya,although it is a backpackers hostel,surprisingly it provide housekeeping services.I'm so embarrassing which I hav no idea and left all my dirty clothes around the room. Haha..?1 thing I regret the most is do not get to stay longer enough at this lovely place. But, we will come back for sure,this time will be a longer stay!! Cheers~

Clean, cool and calm this place is a real pleasure to stay in. The decor is simple, clever and breezy and gives a really welcoming impression. The rooms, as others have said, are quite on the small side, but it really isn't too much of an issue and it is more than made up for by the relaxed air in the rest of the hostel.
The real strength of the place though is the staff. The team are such kind and considerate people and are happy to oblige in anyway to help you really enjoy your time. May in particular is a star of a guy and will answer all your endless questions with a patient and friendly smile.

Oh, and he recommended a tour agency in the town (Exotic Sea I think?) and promised that they were trustworthy as he is. He was completely right- they were really honest and definitely worth a visit if you want to book any tours in the area.

So yeah- great place and great people. Enjoy!
