Hostels em Phuket Province, Thailand

Esta foi minha visita de volta a este albergue, e devo dizer que fiquei desapontado. Da última vez, em outra plataforma, dei uma classificação de 8/10, mas agora acho que fui generoso demais. Além de sorrir, mas não uma equipe que fala inglês (e sorrir nem sempre resolve problemas como uma ação informada) e preço acessível, foi difícil encontrar todos os benefícios que pensei que este albergue tinha. O dispensador de água quente não estava funcionando, mas nem mesmo água fria potável estava acessível - tive que pedir à equipe 3 vezes para alguém encher a máquina. Mas na manhã seguinte estava vazio novamente - deveria haver um sistema em vigor e não contar com os hóspedes para perseguir a equipe para consertar sempre que o tanque de água estivesse vazio. Digo perseguindo porque raramente há alguém na recepção. Eles podem estar limpando os quartos (boa sorte em encontrá-los), mas, francamente, os quartos não estavam tão limpos. O chão estava rezando para ser esfregado, a poeira no ventilador do banheiro também queria ir embora... havia até uma mancha claramente visível no meu lençol ao fazer o check-in, mas a equipe trocou o lençol imediatamente (eles poderiam ter notado quando estavam fazendo a cama pela primeira vez, talvez? O armário não estava funcionando, então o funcionário teve que usar uma faca para fazê-lo funcionar. O outro local de armazenamento também estava cheio de migalhas, presumo que não esteja na lista de limpeza com muita frequência. O ar condicionado no quarto parecia não funcionar corretamente. Sempre havia uma sensação de temperatura muito fria, não importava se o termostato estivesse fixado em 18 ou 25 graus Celsius, você estava congelando mesmo sob o cobertor. As cortinas de privacidade ainda são transparentes (?), e as portas do quarto fecham ruidosamente. O chuveiro era mais uma garoa - a pressão da água não atendia aos requisitos básicos. No primeiro banho, nem estava quente. Entrei no segundo, onde o aquecedor estava funcionando melhor, mas você não conseguia tomar banho com água praticamente pingando em você. No geral, há outros albergues com preços semelhantes em Phuket que oferecem um serviço melhor.

Review of Boutique Guesthouse 99 Oldtown, Phuket Boutique Guesthouse 99 Oldtown is a fantastic choice for travelers looking for affordable yet stylish accommodation in the heart of Phuket Old Town. The location is perfect - close to charming cafes, vibrant street art, and night markets, making it ideal for exploring the area. The cleanliness of the property is impeccable, and the rooms offer amazing accommodation conditions with cozy, well-designed interiors. Considering the low price, it’s an incredible value for money. One small downside is the 500 THB deposit required at check-in, which is refundable but worth noting. Additionally, the soundproofing could be better, as noise from the hallway or nearby rooms can sometimes be heard. Despite these minor points, my stay was a great experience overall. If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable, and budget-friendly stay in Phuket Old Town, this guesthouse is a wonderful option!

A sala é excelente Como mostrado por foto. Bom o suficiente para um backpacker solitário. A casa de banho compartilhada é limpa. Aerocond é Muito frio. Eu só vou ficar UMA noite, então é BOM para mim.

É UMA piscina Muito pequena. Muito limpa e calma. Tinha UMA Grande noite de sono. Centralmente, a localização não está longe Da estação de ônibus para IR Ao aeroporto.

Bem, vamos começar com os pontos positivos: - A limpeza é excelente, o quarto é agradável, assim como as áreas comuns. - Há um micro-ondas na cozinha compartilhada (não há fogão, não se engane), então você pode esquentar comida comprada no 7-Eleven. - Há uma lavadora e secadora compartilhada por 30 baht ao lado da cozinha, então não precisar lavar roupa na pia é um ótimo diferencial. - Os funcionários são muito simpáticos. - As toalhas eram trocadas diariamente. Contras: - O ralo do vaso sanitário do nosso quarto estava com problemas, tivemos que tentar várias vezes (embora o chuveiro funcionasse bem). - Há um galo maluco (nascido em dezembro de 2025) morando ao lado do hotel, cujo nascer do sol acontece por volta das 3h da manhã e nunca para. Sim, ele é bem barulhento e dá para ouvi-lo perfeitamente. - Dá para ouvir um pouco de música de um café próximo, mas comparado ao galo, é quase um sussurro. Difícil de avaliar: - A localização definitivamente não é para quem gosta de praia; é uma longa viagem de carro. Mas fica a 10 minutos a pé do centro da cidade, onde a vida noturna é vibrante. - A Decathlon fica perto. - O ônibus para o aeroporto fica a 15-20 minutos a pé. Minha esposa e eu passamos férias juntos em dezembro de 2025 e adoramos!

Even if it ended with a nice gesture, the receptionist handing me a keychain gift (not sure if they do that with all guests), with a written request to leave 10/10 review, sadly I couldn't ignore the shortcomings of this hostel that seemed like just a downgraded version of Marco Polo Poshtel (not sure which one came first, but from breakfast to ”funny” wall messages, there was a similar ”creative” signature). While I was initially attracted by reviews mentioning hostel's cleanliness, I couldn't say I shared the same opinion. Certain public areas were quite messy. The staircase to the first floor (where shoes are forbidden) didnt seem to be cleaned for some time. In the showers (which had a good water pressure), there was mold. None of the three handsoap dispensers in the only bathroom had soap in them. It just felt the staff doesnt have time or organizational skills to maintain everything in working order. But I was mostly surprised by finding a not clean (i dont want to call it ”used”) bed cover in my bed. It had some fresh stains, hair and crumbles (well, not just on bed cover), and seemed just to be folded after the guest before me (even the folding seemed messed up, so i really thought maybe the bed was forgotten). When I asked the housekeeping to change it, they initially approved. The younger housekeeper started changing everything, sheet included (which i believe is a good way to do it, when it is not certain if the bed was completely changed), but when the older one returned, she made her put the sheet back (the sheet that was thrown on the floor in the meantime), laughing all along. No, that wasnt really funny. Then instead of letting the young housekeeper put on the new bed cover she brought along, i noticed that the older one brought something that seemed to be the same old bed cover that i complained about (the duvet was already inside). When i asked if that is a new thing, she was convincing me it was. Already at that moment, i felt ridiculed. But i said, ”okay, if you say so.” After all was done, i came back to my bed, unfolded the bed cover and confirmed my doubt - all this performance of changing the bed, without them changing anything! The only difference was that the bedsheet was also on the floor in the meantime. This got me really frustrated, mostly because they lied to my face (what for?), and mostly because they invested energy in ”changing” everything while actually just stripping everything off and returning it (why? It takes the same amount of energy to do it for real). Feeling like an *****, i asked what seemed to be the problem? Dont they have clean bedding, or what? But they had. I asked them to give it to me then, and i would happily prepare the bed myself. Which they accepted. Lol. I dont know, with that poor breakfast, the visual mess, unpleasant ”toilet” scent at hostel entrance, and generally low level of cleanliness (you can see how yellow the pillow is once you remove the pillow case yourself), it felt that other reviews mentioning spotless hygiene were misleading. Or were my standards too high? In any case, i stayed in a dozen of Phuket hostels during my month here, but none of them tried to insult my intelligence. There are better places, and no, Dorm Hostel sadly doesnt deserve 10/10, to quote the request they tell everyone at check-out. I also tried to leave them space for hostel improvement, so instead of lowest marks, i left average ones, even if the experience was truly below average. P.S. When a guest asks whether a ferry with a pick-up operates everywhere in Phuket, a genuinely helpful answer would be ”yes”. And not ”no, it's only our hostel's pickup”. I understand everyone just tries to earn money, but it shouldn't be done by misleading guests who just trustfully ask for information.

********* the Burmese woman made the stay unpleasant and uncomfortable for myself and multiple other guests. @Owner, consider replacing this employee with a Thai person who has customer service skills. Promote someone in the group that comes in to cook breakfast and clean. Cleaning should be prioritized to a higher degree - the floors and bathrooms are cleaned once per day. There is black mold growing from standing water in the second floor bathroom. This place has potential to be great, but lack of management has it going downhill quick.

Great hostel, love the concept - Bearpacker incorporate theme from bear, so there's diff levels like panda, polar etc all bears.. even the faucet is bear shape (dang cute) 1. Staff is cool, Nong Saw Fay greeted me and was super nice 2. Location is 500-600m away from bangla street. No clubs near this hostel, hence very peaceful at night 3. Room is very clean with sizable locker, can fit my bag 4. Amenities on 4th or 5th floor is cool, with communal area, rooftop pool etc, just a place to chill Short stay there, but it was memorable

Great stay! Fair price! The hostel was clean, comfortable, and in a perfect location—just a short walk to the night market, restaurants and local attractions. The staff were super friendly and helpful.I especially loved the chill common area where I met other travelers. Wi-Fi was strong, and the beds had privacy curtains.Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

After reading reviews calling it a ”budget gem,” I can confirm it's true! The room was spacious, bright, and spotlessly clean. What impressed me most were the details: the powerful hot shower, the highly effective air conditioning, and the genuinely warm and helpful staff. They not only helped book tours but also offered practical advice for avoiding tourist traps. Located on bustling Nanai Road, you have everything you need at your doorstep, yet you can still get a quiet night's sleep. If you believe your money should be spent on experiences, not just a place to sleep, this is the perfect choice.
