      We charged for no-show because we could prove to Agoda that we were open and we saw you were smoking in front of the hostel but did not come in to check in) And next day you came and took a picture of our neighbour's house with the door closed and accused us that we were closed after we reported to Agoda that you did not show up. And later you were sitting infront our hostel working on your phone. My advice, if you find that the hostel that you booked is closed then you should contact the Agoda 's hotline immediately or at least try to call that hostel as the number shown on the booking confirmation.

      Used Salsa Hostel as a stopover spot before the nightferry from Chumphon the next night. I looked around town and he offered the cheapest ticket prices! The owner even offered me to stay in their movie-area for the 6 waiting hours while it was pouring down outside. Beds are comfy and cozy. Try the muslim restaurant direction trainstation after 100m on the right. Delicious food! Staff is super helpful and organized. 10 out of 10! I'd come back.

      One of the best Hostels I've ever seen! ”

      very friendly and helpful stuff, private room is amazingly big and comfortable, very clean hostel

      We stayed 4 nights at the Salsa Hostel and it was a very pleasant experience. The stuff was very helpful, we could check in early and got a Matress incl. Pillows etc. because our room wasn't ready and the last day we could stay another 9 hours longer to wait for our train. The bed was amazing, our room felt like a good hotelroom. I would't stay anywhere else in Chumphon!

      Beautiful place with wonderful host”

      Free wifi, good breakfast and big rooms

      my girlfriend and i stayed here for one night on our way to koh tao and found it to be a really nice hostel. we were supposed to arrive at 10 pm but our train from kuala lumpur but didn't arrive until just after 1 am and the owner stayed u p and waited for us to help us get settled. such a nice friendly guy. he even booked our ferry ticket for us to have ready for the morning. we had a nice big room with our own ensure. the room was very clean and had a/c - which was a big deal after spending more than 20 hours on a train. the next morning the owner sent one of his staff to the train station to book our train ticket to bangkok for us so we could explore chumphon. overall a really nice stay. felt very welcome there and couldn't beat the staff for helpfulness.

      helpfull staf, nice service and modern / clean hostel

      I enjoyed my stay in salsa hostel. The staf is really nice, helpful and has humor. The hostel is modern, clean, with good situation. 5minutes walking from the train station and directly on the night market. Possibility to rent a motorbike and discover beaches or national park around chumphon. If you are just in transit, so let your bag, take a beer and meet other travellers. I recomand.

      Way above expectations”

      It has everything a backpacker needs and wants. Quarters, toilets and bathrooms were clean and modern. AC was in great working condition unlike some. Had one of the best laughs in months here watching one of the films (Brothers Grimsby) offered at the hostel for free with other travelers. Staff spoke English fairly well, while the owner spoke fluently. Location is right on the street with the mall, night market and many other stalls. Definitely the only hostel I'll consider if I were to visit Chumphon again.

      I loved this place”

      Pros: -staff are just lovely -most "free breakfasts" are crap like just free toast and jams/ butters, but Salsa offered eggs, fruit, cereal, toast (w/ butters/ jams), coffee/ tea,. It was perfect. -they have movies galore for you to watch in the common space on the 2 floor -washrooms were so clean! -dorm room wasn't overcrowded like I've seen at other places, and they had a rack to dry clothes/ towels in the room Con: - this isn't really a big deal at all but the ONLY thing I could think of was maybe curtains for each bed as it gives a little bit of privacy but this wasn't an issue for me here as the people I shared the room with were so friendly. I LOVED this hostel. I would definitely come back here.
