I am currently backpacking throughout Thailand and came to Koh Samui on a whim.
I met some amazing life-long friends here from all over the world.
The staff is friendly, the A/C is cool, lockers are safe, showers get the work done, beds are okay, the beach is a two minute walk away, a convenience store is within walking distance, and AMAZING memories.
The hostel also helps book any tours, transfers, taxi service, anything that you need!
The hostel receptionist, COYOPA, is a gem. He is so lovely and has your best interests in mind.
I have had an amazing experience here. The other hostel mates will possibly make or break your experience, but the chances are slim!!
I love HELLO BACKPACKER hostel and so far, it has been the HIGHLIGHT of my entire stay.........
I want to cry because I love this hostel so much, but yeah, BOOK!!
