"I stayed at this hotel for 20 days and had a very pleasant experience overall.
The staff were extremely friendly, helpful, and always attentive, which made a long stay very comfortable.
The hotel was very clean and gave a new, well-maintained impression throughout my stay. Everything felt fresh and taken care of.
The location is decent, although it is not directly at Ao Nang Beach, so you may need a short ride to get there. However, this was not a major issue for me.

"Great location.
ATM, 7-11, street food, restaurants, night life, laundromat, massage and riverside within 2 minutes walk.
Place was clean despite high turnover of people.
Stayed in 4 X doorm and it was very spacious. Some lights not working when reporting to the staff they weren't too bothered, the issue was not rectified during my stay - 3 nights.
Lively bar, from what I have been told, as I have not visited.
Staff was hit and miss once happy and friendly once moody.(Same people)

"Krabi is incredible, definitely go. That being said, I loved Koko Hostel but it’s not for everyone. Older building, run down amenities, leaky water connections everywhere. Koko does a great job of bringing people together, lots of hostel sponsored events and gatherings, I’ll be back for sure! "

"Mycket hårda sängar och kuddar. Hårda utenöbler så svårt att känna att man har det bekvämt någonstans. Nära till shopping och restauranger. Fint grönområde med tillgång till väldigt enkelt kök och en helt okej pool. Ingen rengöring eller byte av handdukar under vårt uppehåll på 4 nätter. Helt ok för ett par nätter."

"The room was overall clean. We enjoyed our stay.
The property has a good vibe of the island offering a party pool and music night with a great location.
Just a feedback on toilet and shower rooms that as they were common for all, it would have been better if the toilets are separated from shower rooms or at least have a bigger space for the current shower+ toilet rooms."

"Breakfast was amazing. Bed was comfy, AC worked great. Water pressure was great & hot water in showers. Staff was top notch, made my medical stay in Thailand feel welcomed & safe. Even had them do a load of laundry and clothes were clean & smelled wonderdul. Super convenient location for walking, close to everything. I will be staying here again."

"We had a very positive experience from the moment we arrived. After getting off our long tail boat, we were picked up by tractor and escorted to our room, which was a unique and memorable start to our stay.
It was my partner’s birthday, which I had mentioned in the booking confirmation, and the staff surprised us with a birthday cake — such a thoughtful gesture that really made the occasion feel special.
The location of the hotel is absolutely superb, right on the Railay Beach front, with stunning views and a truly unbeatable setting.
My only criticism is that the hotel itself looks a little tired in places. For example, the tiling in the pool is worn and in need of repair, and we stayed in a hut which felt quite basic and could definitely benefit from some updating.
That said, I would return to this hotel because the location is simply stunning. Next time, however, I would choose to upgrade the room, as the basic option wasn’t the most comfortable."

10/10 Excellent
"Really lovely week. The property and the location are beautiful. The facilities, restaurants, etc. were all excellent. I would very much recommend it as a pleasant, relaxing holiday resort in a really beautiful spot. The service was very friendly and helpful but sometimes not quite hitting the standards I think they were aiming for - but only in little things, such as running out of menus one evening. The management of the airport transfers, which was important, was seamless."
"Great location. 1/4 block from Main Street in Ao Nang and 1.5 blocks from beach. Shops, restaurants, massages just steps away. Staff friendly. They supply you with bottled water and will replenish, 2 at a time, whenever requested at no charge. They have a weight room and have Pilates and yoga in mornings on certain days. Breakfast buffet excellent. Lattes, fresh fruit, eggs, cereal and many other yummy foods. 2 pools, one on main floor and infinity pool on roof top. Would definitely go back and recommend it. "
"Good choice for breakfast, great location, pool access room excellent, stairs to the pool a bit tricky/slippery.
TV stations for English speaking very poor. "
"Fantastic hotel. Brilliant view from the pool area. Slightly further away from the beach but no issue as there is a free shuttle to and from that the hotel offer for free. Would highly recommend!"
