The Hostelz.com Review - Genuine, independent review you can trust.
Bedbox Guesthouse & Hostel is simply outstanding! It is trendy and modern, is equipped with everything a traveler might need, and customer service is fantastic! It's highly recommended for those who want a bit of a quiet time in the middle of the crazy party vibe of Patong Beach.
The Location
BedBox is hidden on a quiet back street in a residential area where you can see a completely different face of Patong -- here, you have children running around their pet chickens and people growing their plants in the garden. If you are not sure whether the party mood of the seaside capital of Phuket is really for you, you should definitely go for this place! Another great thing about staying here is that you have three hypermarkets in walking distance and as the hostel offers a fully equipped kitchen, you will be able to avoid the gigantic food prices at local restaurants.
Rooms and Bathrooms
The rooms are extremely clean and modern; they have a small number of beds inside and come with an en suite bathroom and balcony. The bunk beds are comfy and have bedside lamps and electronic plugs. You can also find lockers in front of the rooms in the corridor. The youthful decoration provides a really upbeat atmosphere, the only downside is that you might be put into a room right at the top of the building, which means five levels of stairs each time you need something from the reception or common area. Moreover, as the hostel wants to guarantee that you are welcomed by utmost cleanliness, they won't let you do early check-in and you will have to wait until the general cleaning is done to enter your room.
Common Spaces
The entire ground floor is dedicated to the common areas. There is a spacious lobby with sofas and armchairs where a cat theme dominates. In fact, there is a cat living in the hostel, so if you have allergies, you had better look for a different place. At the back, there is a huge kitchen where you can do proper meals and thanks to the food sharing system you might benefit from the leftovers of other people. In the kitchen is a huge dining area with a long table and chairs as well.
Summary
BedBox Hostel has absolutely everything you might need as a backpacker. It offers a comfortable stay in a quiet neighbourhood and it makes your holiday memorable with a variety of extras, including an amazing kitchen and private balconies with spectacular views.
