The property is around 8.9 km from The World War 2 bridge, 8.9 km from Pai Canyon and 4.7 km from Wat Nam Hoo. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen, free shuttle service and organising tours for guests. I think it's the best hostel I've been to in Thailand, super comfortable, everything in very good condition. You can tell that it is a fairly new hostel and they maintain it very well. The room was huge, with very comfortable beds. The bathrooms and showers were in excellent condition. They serve breakfast right there for a reasonable extra price. The staff was friendly and are always willing to quickly resolve any problem that arises. The rooms do not have air conditioning but at the time I was there (November) it was not necessary since it got quite cold during the night.
