    It was fine. Check in was quite slow and outside of the bungalows isn't the prettiest. But comfortable enough inside.

    This is a no frills bungalow, it was clean the grandma running it with her grand daughter were very friendly. It was a little trek to the night life. Unfortunately the are building 10 new bungalows opposite so was a little noisy in the morning but hey they are only trying to increase their business just need to look through the building work but this will be finished soon and once finished will be an excellent place to stay.

    The room wasn’t ready until 17:30. At 21:00 on the day before our checkout the owner entered our bungalow (while we were sleeping) to tell us we had to be out by 11:00 the next morning (which we were planning) at 10:40, they cut the water to the bungalow, I watched the worker do it out the back window while I was brushing my teeth.

    Facilities and location were nice.

    It's a pretty basic bungalow, but equipped with AC, a fan and a fridge. Don't expect anything too fancy though. The owners don't really speak English but communication works somehow. Right now there's some construction work going on, so it can get noisy in the morning. Decent location.

    Bathroom had holes in walls so mosquitos could fly in. Construction works going on at the property so it was very loud from 7am.

    Basic rooms but everything you would expect. Owed by a lovely family who very friendly.

    Lots of bugs in the bathroom as there are holes at the top so things can get in. Have to pay extra for air con which isn’t great given this place is already pretty expensive for Thailand. Pretty bad value for money

    The lady who runs this place is nice. Great location, can be a little noisy at night.

    Like another places in koh tao the quality price is not good. The bungalow is old, super dark and doesn't have a lot of facilities. You need to pay extra to use the AC or to have drinking water

    The place is in a good location and the people who regent the bungalows are super sweet.

    managed to book last minute. The beds were comfortable but weren’t anything special. It is a bit far from Sairee beach but quick by motorbike. The staff is super helpful as they offered to ride with me to drop my motorbike off and carry me back.

    For preparing meals and eating food you were told to sit outside the bungalow. There was an extra table prepared on the terrace. Eating outside normally is a nice thing, but there have been to many flies and mosquitoes to enjoy your meal. We weren't able to pay with credit card and we needed to deposit 500 Baht cash for our room key.

    The room was big enough for us. We have been two people, but got 4 beds. There was a fridge inside. Bathroom was clean and we got some soap. We like harder mattresses, so the beds were totally okay for us. Its possible to boil some water and prepare some toasted bread, but therefor you need to go to the reception.

    Noisy animals on the roof of the bungalow overnight. Lots of mosquitos outside but managed to not have any in the room.

    The host lady was super nice to us. Location is central. She can help with the rent of a cheaper motorbike (compared to the others in town). Bed quite comfortable, fridge in the room, good WiFi, clean room, clothes shelves present in the room, nice balcony outside the bungalow. Cheap price. Recommended :)

    It was a building site. The room wasn’t clean or cleaned. It was falling apart on the inside and the bathroom needed a good deep clean. Also the memory foam mattresses were old and worn out. I’m not happy booking.com

    It was close to the town and not far from the beach
