"They have a bad habit of turning off their water. I was just now having a shower, shaving my head, and the water in the shower stopped. I had to walk downstairs to the reception with nothing but a towel and soapy head to ask them to turn on the water. they did so. however... When I exited the shower to brush my teeth, the water had stopped again! I waited at the reception but it seems they were hiding from me. I called The hotel number and they came downstairs. I questioned why they keep turning the water off. they just apologized and turned it back on. I don't shower profusely long. why does this hotel have a problem turning on their water? I think I know the answer... Because they have a leaky tap! I think that instead of repairing the tap, they'd rather just turn off the water..."

Hotel near Karon Beach,Phuket
With a stay at Mitsu Guesthouse in Karon, you'll be a 1-minute drive from Karon Beach and 6 minutes from Kata Beach. This guesthouse is 4.6 mi (7.4 km) from Patong Beach and 5.2 mi (8.4 km) from Bangla Road.
The front desk is staffed during limited hours. Free self parking is available onsite.
Make yourself at home in one of the 13 air-conditioned guestrooms. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and digital programming is available for your entertainment. Bathrooms have showers and hair dryers. Conveniences include desks and separate sitting areas, and housekeeping is provided daily.
"If you can stay in a hotel, don't bother with an Airbnb. Airbnbs have too many rules. We paid over 400 baht a night, which isn't cheap. First, there's no elevator, so hauling luggage was a pain. Second, the cleaning wasn't great. The first time, they didn't even mop, and the second time, the bathroom floor wasn't mopped either. I think they only cleaned twice in total, though it was our fault for not leaving the card outside the door for cleaning. Cleaning is from 9 am to 4 pm, and you have to pay extra outside those hours. Later, when we stayed in a hotel in Bangkok for around 300 baht, the experience was much better. I'm definitely not staying in an Airbnb again. Even though it's close to Helen Beach, it's still about a 15-minute walk, so you still need a taxi. The taxi fare starts at around 200 or 250 baht. It's also a good 10-minute walk to the bus stop, and with luggage, you'd still need a taxi. Not good value for money, maybe I'm just too poor."

SSunny_lives_inBased on a recent stay, I can confidently say this hotel sets a new standard for attentive hospitality and practical comfort. Here is a detailed review.
Exceptional, 24/7 Customer Service
The standout feature was undoubtedly the customer service. From the initial booking online, through an urgent last-minute change I had to make, to after-hours queries, the team was consistently responsive, helpful, and polite. The seamless support made me feel like there was always someone on standby, providing a sense of great security and convenience rarely experienced.
Perfectly Located for Convenience & Leisure
The location is a major asset. It perfectly balances convenience and quiet. Everything you need is within easy walking distance: a 7-11 for essentials, a pharmacy, a fruit shop, diverse restaurants, and even the beach. Yet, despite this accessibility, the property itself is situated in a peaceful area ensuring a restful night's sleep—a combination that is often hard to find.
Impeccably Equipped for both Short or Long Stay
The apartment itself was very clean throughout. It is clearly designed for guests who need to live, not just visit. Key highlights include:
· Full Kitchen: A full set of kitchenware was provided, along with thoughtful extras like dishwashing liquid. It truly felt like a functional home kitchen.
· Laundry Essentials: The in-unit laundry was a major plus, and the provision of laundry powder and softener was a delightful, practical touch. The inclusion of a clothes drying rack solved the everyday chore effortlessly.
· Spacious Layout: The big wardrobe offered ample storage, and the separate living area was spacious and comfortable, making extended stays perfectly relaxing.
Final Verdict
This hotel excels in understanding the needs of its guests. It goes beyond the basics by providing a spotless, fully-equipped home-away-from-home, backed by a truly exceptional and proactive service team. It is an excellent choice for travelers seeking a comfortable, independent stay with outstanding support. I would not hesitate to return or recommend it highly.

CCOMEFLYWITHLUCYWalking distance from airport, shops and beach. Lots of food in the area. Staff super friendly and were waiting for me on arrival. The loft rooms are very cute and not as small as you'd think. Ive stayed in a lot of loft rooms and this one was very spacious especially the bathroom. Room towels and pool towels provided along with mosquito repellent, coffee and water. The pool is SO clean and relaxing. Water machine at front of property along with washing machines. Sun loungers are comfy as are the tables set up outside the rooms.

22morrowsworldMy initial thought on this accommodation business is in some ways positive. If it is viewed purely as a 'hostel' with an associated coffee shop, then it definitely has attributes (and I'll come back to those later).
But if taken at face value on the basis of its tariff cost and amenities, both real and indicated, then there are several problems with it. The first is the way the premises is represented on the Trip com platform.
Photographs of the double bedroom include one of a bathroom. The attached text description and its context makes the plain implication that the room has an ensuite bathroom, which it does not. If little scrutiny is applied when reading the description, this fact will escape the readers attention. Anyone looking to make a reservation quickly can easily be misled (inadvertently?) into believing that this is a 'hotel' style room. Many hostels do offer rooms with ensuite bathrooms after all. The bathroom is communal and is inconveniently located on the ground floor. Rooms are above this.
A second related criticism is the room size description - 18 m sq is quoted. The room has dimensions of 3 x 3.5 m. That is, about 10 m sq !
Although late February is still peak season in Phuket, it has to be said that the room tariff of almost $60 AUD per night is exorbitant. It may be considered acceptable for a 18 m sq hotel style room, given the circumstances, but a room of this kind at this particular locality ought to be offered at a lower price. Having said this, I concede that the reservation was made late and in haste.
Now onto the good things. The 10 m sq double bed room has old but high quality wooden furniture which serves its purpose well. The air conditioning is responsive and strong
There is a large kitchen next to the bathroom/wash basin (trough). It's equipped with a large fridge, sink, cutlery etc as well as a coffee maker ( + ground coffee). A delicious banana cake was offered to guests. Clothes can be washed and dried via a coin operated machine.
Other attributes include the woman owner/ manager who has a professional approach and an attitude very well suited to the hospitalality jndustry. The coffee shop also makes decent coffees and ham n cheese croissants.

AAnonymous UserI stayed in the 4 bed mixed dorm for 2 nights on the upper deck near the door. And the overall stay is pleasant.
First of all. the iron rack itself is mounted in the wall. so there will be no shaky double decker and no noise when you climbing up and down. The space is kinda wide as well so you wont find yourself squeezing in a tiny bed. Aircon is well functioning but temperature is not controllable.
A towel will be provided for the stay, together with a puffy pillow and blanket. It comes with a spacious locker that can accomocadate a big luggage.
Entrance to the main door and your room door using card. like a hotel you will need to slide in the same card to the socket on the wall for electricity.
There is a tiny washroom in the room. shower space and toilet bowl seperated by a nylon curtain. Need to mention their toilet bowl is pretty silent when flushing which make the stay even peaceful.
While on the facilities, the common area pretty mucn looks the same in the photos. Beautiful and comfortable. However, the premise is built by a river, so there is quite some whiteflies(?) kind of insect flying around.
Simple breakfast including bread and jam, cookies, coffee, black tea, fruit of the day, soup of the day etc. will be provided every day. I enjoyed their pumkin soup and black tea very much. Just sitting by the pool enjoying the breakfast is very satisfiying.
The staff are welcoming and helpful. Communication in english is fluent. Do take note to inform the staff upon checkin if you preferred a down deck bed. no bed change allowed once you get you key.
The stay is not directly located in the center of the town. walking to the center takes around 10~ minutes. a small mall located right opposite the building. a few restaurant in the mall that smells pretty good. Tops daily is also available in the mall, and 711 is at 5 minutes walking distance.
Overall enjoyed the stay very much. Would consider to visit again.
* p/s: P1,2-photo of the bed from google. just a bad habbit not taking photo of my bed.
P3: Actual view taken at the pool.
P4: Some pic at the old town.

IIvan KraljEven 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.

Aalexmc13Overall, it was good. The location is nice, the hostel itself is a bargain, other than that, we had one accident with our room that required us to pay additional 1000 bath for a broken window, that has fallen by itself out of our room 🙂🙂
They’ve told us that we were in the room, so we’re responsible for it. Other than that, great service
overall be careful in thailand and always film for proof, not to get into accidents🌹

เเที่ยวไหนต่อThe accommodation is about a 15-minute walk from Phuket Airport. There are several shared bathrooms for men and women, but the bedrooms are very crowded, making it noisy until 1 a.m. before it quiets down. If you like quiet, this might not be the place for you.

The one problem that I had, bathroom was dirty, ground was hairy, pipe was blocked with lots of hair. we checked in very late with a last minute booking, I guess they prepared room (it was clean and sheets, towels was very ok) and forgot bathroom to clean
