Excellent location close to beaches and all activity in Kata Beach.

Pros: The location was excellent, right in the centre and 5 to 10mn walk from Kata Beach, 15mn from Karon Beach. The landlords were very nice and helpful. It was in the middle of the Kata walking night market and very lively.

Cons: Some rooms can be a bit noisy with the water pump.

Pros: I couldn’t recommend more this place. Great location. Right at the middle of everything you need but still quiet. The bed was soooo comfortable. One of the most comfortable ones we slept on. Air condition was great. Water pressure was great as well. Super clean and you get 2 bottles of water each day. Service is wonderful. Girls are lovely. Specially Ma 🍀. WiFi was good. I was reading previously before booking this place and they were few complaints about WiFi what I would advise to ignore as they probably didn’t log in at the right one. We realised that second day. They have 5g Wifi that is better. They cook a lovely food. I couldn’t recommend more banana pancakes ☺️ Thank you for a lovely stay. We will come back.

Great location and nice big room

Pros: The location was best part. Right in Walking St and 10 mins to beach. Although Market downstairs, closed at 11 pm so no problems with noise at night.

Cons: The stairs up to the second floor where our room was were very steep. Difficult with luggage.

Great location, will come again.

Pros: Double rooms with balcony are at the back of the property and are very quiet despite the bustle of the night markets just outside your door. The rooms are basic but perfectly adequate and the beds were extra comfy. Brilliant budget accommodation right in the centre of the Kata action, with the advantage of being at the north end so you can walk to the beach relatively easily without having to do a giant lap around Club Med. If you hire a bike there is ample parking available nearby. A+

Cons: If anything it could do with a lick of paint, but that didn't bother me.

Comfortable no frill stay in the heart of Phuket , 10 mins walk to the beach.

Pros: Location location location. Right bang in the middle of the night market and restaurants and bars. 10 mins walk to the beach. Laundry next door to the hotel. You couldn’t ask for more convenient location. The lady and her daughter who were running the hotel could not be sweeter or more helpful. Worked nonstop. Aircon was fantastic. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Lots of hot water and very good pressure. Very quiet after 11pm. No noise at all from the market to disrupt your sleep. Rooms had all mod cons needed during your stay including a safe, fridge, kettle and tv. I would very happily stay there again.

Cons: Ok now this part…..!!!! The hotel has obviously seen better days and desperately needs an upgrade. The hotel is up for sale and I think the proprietor is not up to doing the repairs as he wishes to sell on and retire( and I wish him all the best for his future plans) From rotten door frames, some walls in need of a lock of paint, old toilet seats etc etc all could do with an up grade BUT none of it effected my stay in the hotel. As I said everything that should work for a comfortable stay worked. It’s a cheap and cheerful hotel in the heart of Phuket.

Would recommend any day

Pros: We actually stayed at another place that they work with called “flowernight guesthouse” it was very clean. The owner speaks good English and is lovely. The room had all necessary facilities and when our fan blew up they replaced it immediately. Location is great and in the middle of the night market although it is not very noisy. The balcony is very good.

Cons: No water provided with the room.

Super comfortable bed, close to beach and restaurants.

Pros: Super comfortable large King size bed!!! Restaurant downstairs with reasonable prices very convenient. Great location close to food market, short walk to Kata & Karon beach (where surfboard hire is available). Large room, everything working including aircon, shower, refrigerator. Spacious room.

Cons: The staff are not Thai. (This only matters to me because I am trying to learn Thai. However this is common on the whole West Coast of Thailand, that about 70% of hotel staff, are from Myanmar.

A great place to stay in the centre of Kata, it is really good value for money

Pros: The breakfast is good. It is ten minutes walk to kata and Karon beaches there are shops and markets right next to guest house a really good location. If you want bars they are only a couple of minutes away. The staff and owner are really friendly. This is a great little guest house I would stay here again and would recommend it.
