AVA 호스텔 & 게스트하우스

After the 2 hour ferry crossing from Koh Samui we disembarked through complete chaos on the old wooden pier and out into the narrow streets of the town. Right turn to the first left and up the slope for about 150m to the Guesthouse. Perfect. We were booked in and shown up to our room, 20, on the first floor accessed via a staircase at the end of the ground floor corridor. We are the street end bar one room so saved any road noise if it exists. The room has a lounge area, a large, comfy double/king sized bed with a big internet TV on a unit at the base of the bed, Tea gear, a big fridge with shelves above and a hanging area with bars but no hangers. Maybe they are supplied upon request. Next was the bathroom with the loo opposite the door, a fancy shell like sink with pop up plug and the shower area. Strangely the shower is on the outer wall, where the water comes in through the outside wall rather than on the wall at the back of the cubicle. The whole room works and the shower does a good job but the room needs a good makeover. In the main area there are plenty of power sockets and wall lights as well as some funky lights in the lounge/bedroom divide The aircon worked well and was quiet. At the main building end of the communal corridor is a lounging area with a swing chair and likewise on ground floor. The staff were brilliant throughout our visit. One point of note:- The metsl stairs up to 1st floor have normal risers but the treads are short, front to back, so care needed coming down. There are gaps around the front door and I suggest you spray Deet into the gap beteern tne door and frame to keep the mozzies out. The lights on tne landi g do not go off during the night so there is some seepage in to the room and it never gets pitch black All in all a great place to stay in a great location.
