Blanco Hostel @ Lanta

Awesome price for a supercozy and clean hostel with a really chill garden and small breakfast with toasts, fruit and tea/coffee. Close to long beach and a helpful staff. Recommending

BED BUGS! Don't stay here.

I noticed one on the bed as soon as I got to my room. I showed the receptionist and asked for my money back. She proceed to refund me but not the full amount, while her and another co worker were laughing about the situation. She was not apologetic in any way whatsoever.

Dirty place, and rude people. Disgusting.

I've been traveling for several month's now and I can hand's down this was the worst experience that I've had with a hostel. The staff are rude and want to rip you off any way they can. Don't both staying here there are plenty of reasonably priced hostels in the area that I stayed in that are far better.

Right next to the beach! The hostel is super cozzy with hammocks and fireplace. The staff is helpful and people are very social. It is in somewhat good location but close bars and restaurants. Rooms were very clean and comfortable.

The dorm rooms+ bathrooms are cleaned everyday and comfortable. The staff here is always friendly and helpful.
Simple breakfast consisting of toast, butter, jam, coffee, tea and fruit.

Its a pretty place for sure, but I got ripped of when I wanted to rent a scooter. I rent one but there was no gas in it so I had first to buy gas to drive away.
It was an impudence for sure.
I will not come back just because of that.

Great hostel in Koh Lanta.
I came in just for one night but ended up spending another 2.8p shared rooms are both very nice and cosy, and well worth the price.
Hostel is in very nice condition, clean and all that.
There are also nice socializing events like 'all you can eat bbq' where you have great opportunity to meet other people staying in the hostel.
Far enough from the main road not to hear the constant noise of the traffic.
Great, optimistic service.
Definitely recommend it a lot

Secret gem! Really great clean hostel, staff really nice funny and helpful! Definitely 2 min away from the beach!

Hostel staff not friendly. Especially the staff who sits at the reservation counter is not at all friendly. Especially for a hostel you need the friendly staff who can welcome you nicely when you are tired from a long trip. Else rooms are fine. The location is really nice and peaceful and very close to the beach

I was going to stay here but read that they keep your passport. I called to confirm if this was truw and they insisted that this was their policy despite the fact that everywhere else is happy with taking a photocopy. They refuse my stay of I wanted to hold on to my passport. I wouldn't trust a place that does this and so I won't be staying.

Beautiful hostel in the middle of greenery with very friendly staff, clean dorms and a three minute walk from the beach. They also have scooters to rent for only 200 bath per day:)

Great place to meet new people. The place was comfortable and spacious. Don't have a bad word to say about the place. Amazing
