DPM Hostel

The garden is lovely, and even with Haad Rin beach nearby, Thai Dee’s stays really quiet. It worked well for a Full Moon stay. Just don't expect anything fancy: water, towels, hot shower, and soap were about all we got. Our bathroom wasn't very clean, the aircon was intense even on its lowest setting, and the manual fan was loud. Bring bug spray for evenings on the porch. I'd pay the extra £15 for an aircon bungalow rather than try to save it.

We booked two nights and left after one. The room was hot and stuffy without air conditioning, and there was no housekeeping. The mattress was thin, dirty, and uncomfortable, and the plastic blanket made sleeping miserable. We also had no hot water and couldn't get Wi-Fi in the room. Mosquitoes were everywhere, and a lizard came in twice, including once crawling over our things in the middle of the night. The room itself was dirty. A truly disgusting stay, stay away.

We were there almost a week. The bungalows were simple but decent, and the staff were nice. The bad pop music played nearly all day and night. It wasn't loud enough to keep us awake, but it got annoying.

We went straight to the room to settle in and found bed bugs on every mattress. There was no hot water, and the place smelled oddly of human feces. A man named Nigel was with local ladyboys, which made me uncomfortable. Me and the boys arrived at Thai Dee garden resort, and it was 0/10.
