This was our first hostel experience and it was amazing!! The property was very spacious and felt like we were staying at a family home. Between the game room, the gym, the drying area, free body paint, free water, free community supper, a bar, a lovely porch outside- it was truly a great hostel. P1 was and will forever be our FAVORITE host as she was so beyond accommodating and sweet. Additionally, Funky Monkey was a wonderful social hostel as we met amazing people from all over and became very close the whole time we were on the island. Absolutely recommend and will definitely be back!!
We wish P1 had more time off because she works so hard ❤️❤️

The staff were all so kind and comforting. Was a truely amazing experience we felt so looked after . Such fun as well as really good value for money , lovely freebies too and great hangout spots. Special mention for the receptionist who made such an effort to make everyone feel safe and welcome . Even noticing when certain people hadn't come in after a night out.
Only downside was the bath rooms are washroom style which was more of a personal preference but was still super clean and all worked well

The owner was nice and welcoming and check-in was easy. It was a quieter period during my stay, so the atmosphere may be different at other times.
Stayed here for two nights and woke up with around 15 bites after the first night, mostly on my legs, arms, and hips. I had been in Phuket for about five days before arriving and had zero bites, so this started after staying here. The bites looked very consistent with bed bug bites, so I recommend the property check the mattress and bedding carefully as something in the room did not seem right.
The location was not very convenient during my stay because the Full Moon period was not on, so the area felt quite empty. The setup of the bathroom was also unusual, with the shower attached to the toilet and no real separation, and the toilet/shower area connected directly to the dorm with only a curtain dividing it, which did not feel very clean or private. The room was also very dark, and even around 9am it was hard to tell it was daylight outside, which made it easy to oversleep. There was not much atmosphere or schedule during my stay, so overall the vibe felt quite bland.
