Central/prime location in Chaweng

Categories

Cleanliness
1
Multiple guests reported unpleasant-smelling toilets, a cockroach incident, and poor room cleaning (only sheets arranged). Cleanliness is clearly a negative point in reviews.
Service
1
Staff repeatedly praised as very helpful and friendly (named staff member Malak highlighted). Reception able to book activities and staff were accommodating; service sentiment is strongly positive.
Location
1
Location repeatedly described as excellent/central in Chaweng and a major pro; however it is adjacent to nightlife which contributes to noise problems (location itself is very good for access and nightlife).
Room Quality
1
Rooms described as small, with poor soundproofing (70 dB reported, nightclub noise until early morning), windows that often cannot be opened, and issues like a leaking shower—overall negative room quality.
Amenities
1
Guests noted lack of refrigerators in rooms, a broken hot/cold water machine that used to exist, though the pool and some on-site games are positives. Net sentiment for amenities is negative due to missing/basic broken items.
Value for Money
1
Not explicitly discussed in reviews; assigned target overall rating (0.0) per instructions.
Food and Beverage
1
No substantive commentary on food or on-site F&B; assigned target overall rating (0.0) per instructions.
Overall Experience
1
Overall experience is negative for many guests due to severe nighttime noise and sleep disruption; some repeat guests praised staff and location but still stated they would not return because of the noise.

Pros:

Also wer Party möchte ist da richtig! Ich kann das Einzelzimmer sehr empfehlen man hört trotzdem die Musik recht lange aber das ist bei einem Partyhostel zu erwarten. Das Personal ist unfassbar hilfsbereit und man kann alles sehr spontan über die Rezeption buchen

Cons:

Toiletten rochen sehr unangenehm und die Dusche war auch nicht dicht alles war nass. An einem Tag hatte ich eine Kakerlake im Zimmer diese wurde aber sofort entfernt

Pros:

De locatie was top!

Cons:

Helaas zat onze kamer boven een nachtclub waardoor het snachts erg luidruchtig was. Ook miste wij een koelkast op de kamer.

Très mal dormi
Pros:

L’emplacement, les équipements

Cons:

Le bruit qui empêche cruellement de dormir avant 5h du matin le week-end
70 dB dans la chambre!!!

J’étais surclassé la première semaine dans une chambre où j’ai réussi à dormir, mais la seconde semaine j’ai dû passer 5
Pros:

L’emplacement et l’originalité ainsi que les différents jeux sur place

Cons:

Les chambres ne sont pas assez insonorisé compte-tenu de la discothèque interne et celle qui est juste à côté. Avoir 70 dB jusqu’à 5h du matin. Les week-ends c’est juste impossible. Cet hôtel est réservé aux jeunes qui se couche à 6h du matin.

Nous ne reviendrons pas dans cet hôtel !
Pros:

L’emplacement sur Chaweng et le personnel .

Cons:

Si vous cherchez un hôtel « cosy » au calme c’est pas celui là , Parcontre si vous êtes en mode fête allez y .
Il y pas grand chose qu’on a aimé à vrai dire ! Et quelle horreur cette musique toute la nuit de la boîte de nuit de dessous …!!! Encore que la journée il y a de la musique c’est sympa .. mais du coup avoir de la musique de 12h à 7h du matin l’horreur . Les chambres sont super mal isolés. Et le pire … pas possible d’ouvrir les fenêtres !

Fun, Sun and Chill ! I Love Thailand ;)
Pros:

Die Lage und Ausstattung vom Hotel ist super!
Es muss einfach jedem bewusst sein das es ein Party-Hotel/Hostel ist...
Es kann dann schon mal lauter werden in der nacht weil der eine Club sehr in der nähe ist und die Bässe pumpen.

Cons:

Für mich hat es gepasst, habe mich aber auch gut über die Situation vorab informiert.

חיכיתי שיגמר
Pros:

מיקום מעולה

Cons:

אי אפשר לישון בלילה מרוב הרעש של המועדונים מסביב. אין בידוד רעשים, שומעים הכללללל גם מהחדרים מסביב
בנוסף אין מקרר בחדר שזה קריטי
