10/10 Excellent

This was my first stay in a hostel and I am glad it was here. The staff were amazing upon check in. I felt safe and the facilities were clean. It was very close to the airport so made getting transport early the next day very easy. Good wifi. I wish I actually got to stay longer because I feel like there was some fun areas I didn't get to check out! If I come back to Phuket I will definitely stay here again.

Fulfill Phuket Hostel

10/10 Excellent

We stayed one night after arriving from the airport. And the next day we went off to phi phi island. The hotel booked our pick up and tickets at a cheap price (cheaper than many sellers, and online). The room itself was small, but just like the pictures. Perfect if you're staying a night or a few. We really enjoyed it, and the front desk girl was really lovely and helpful w best English so far here in Thailand. We'd stay again
