Marco Polo Phuket Poshtel & Bistro

It is good. Room and toilet are clean. The location is quite good also. Hostel decorations are nice.

The mattress was comfortable, but sadly the top middle beds are not the best place to put tall people (as they will inevitably hit beams with their head). Also, the electricity socket in my bed wasnt sturdy enough to hold a charger in place, so i had to improvize with putting a bag and a cap as the base, so it wouldnt be following out. AC in the rooms is turned off between 11:30 and 16:30, fyi. In terms of other facilities, everything else seemed spacious enough. Actually so spacious that i think the architect could have put additional toilets in the bathroom, as two didnt seem to be enough for the 1st floor (30ish people?). There were however 3 urinals, most awkwardly placed near the always opened doors, and sinks used by everyone (the bathroom is unisex). It would have made sense to get rid of these, and rather have another toilet. As for showers, there are three. Water pressure was fine, even if it was hard to get truly warm/hot water. Shower gel/shampoo available, as well as necessary hooks to hang your stuff. Breakfast was a simple scrambled egg with a slice of toast and butter, cabbage salad with mayonnaise, and a cheap sausage. Fine to start a day, but not so fulfilling. Coffee and tea available at breakfast, water throughout the day. You can also use the kitchen to make your own lunch or dinner. In the lobby and outside, quite a few areas to hang out and chill. If you wanted to play pool, thats 20 baht. Board games were for free. Top floor has washing machines (50 baht per load) and a dryer (10 for 5 min), but i think you would have to spend quite some time there reloading the coins. After 2 turns that didnt dry much, i hanged my laundry on limited hanging space, but beware if you do that, as it can be windy, and many clothes were flying around. The staff is approachable and hospitable, even if their basic level of English can lead to quite a few misunderstandings, as I witnessed.

Good, lots of fine signs everywhere. Should spend more time on having bathrooms clean

Great location near Old Town (4 photos). Next to other hostels ; restaurants; bars ; far from the beach. But you can get a motorcycle or rent one . The vibe at the hostel was chill (1 photo)Water pressure cool. Top bunk not cool to climb

Clean room and quiet place, has some chilling area, good price

Good location friendly staff, and very clean room. I really enjoyed my stay for two nights here and will definitely go back here again on my next travel to Phuket.
