Draper Startup House for Entrepreneurs - Hostel

There are rooms here with high speed internet, and the upstairs balcony has a magnificent sunset view. They even provide a place for Muslims to pray, and the menu prices are reasonable. It’s a simple but warm spot, with friendly, kind staff. I really enjoyed visiting this cool co-working and co-living space. They do the place proud.

The quiet was a welcome change after Bangkok, and the rice field views are very peaceful. The beach is the one drawback because it’s a distance away. We came to the hostel for the great prices, then met CK, who said we could use the villa pool anytime. It’s only a short walk from the hostel. The staff are amazing and the people friendly. I couldn’t be happier with my choice.

There were mice all over the place, from reception to the kitchen, and they even jumped into the dorm rooms when we went into the kitchen. It was disgusting, and everything was in terrible condition. The pool was half empty and looked like it might not have been cleaned for a year. Stay away.

There’s a lovely garden set up for a peaceful, creative stay, a beautiful workspace upstairs, and a small kitchen. The hostel was clean, and the staff were cheerful and helpful. It’s about an 8 minute ride to the beach, and unlike most hostels, you can actually sleep here. Great for entrepreneurs. I’d recommend it to everyone except party travelers, and I’ll definitely be back!
