We were told that this was a great place to stay so ignored many other guest houses/hostels on the way to the hostel. We phoned from a bar and the owner was helpful and picked us up. We had a good first impression. Then it went downhill The dorm looked ok on arrival- typical of anywhere else so we booked... More

The owner Greg is a very warm and nice person. Apart from that, everything else is one big joke. I have no reason to lie (as my title suggests) to tell everyone any fibs about this place; it will speak for itself if anyone chooses to stay here, despite what I have stated. The toilets first of all do not... More

Nice Place. They have a dog name Haibal. The owner like to tell us a story. Very recommended place. The staff is also helpfull. Nice food. Nice location. They like to gave us a lot of information.

Booked in here and luckily got a private 4 bed dorm for 3 of us which was nice with TV and air con. Room was clean and air con was freezing until it broke on the last night. Alright location for Patong. The rooftop bar is a joke though. Food was ok but generally small portions. Manager was very strange.... More

We had called the day before and booked one standard double room and one deluxe double room. Everything felt great since the manager spoke good English, perhaps he even was Englishman? We arrived there just before noon, as we told him on the phone. Talked to the laidy at the front desk who said the rooms had to be cleaned... More

whatever you do, do not stay here, booked room on internet and asked us what time we would arrive, stated around 10am. arrived about half 10 to find we would have to wait around until 12 as rooms were not ready. at 12 asked again when manager was there, only to find him extremely rude and to tell us room...

Cheap Charlie's is definitely one of the better hostels we have stayed at in Thailand. Large clean rooms, comfortable shared bathrooms (ensuite also available), great atmosphere and slightly back from the drag of Patong which means it's a little quieter and easier to sleep. Only take 10-15 mins to walk to the Beach and Bangla Road... but if you get... More

Patong is not a place for backpackers. Taking this into account, Cheap Charlie's is one of the best options you'll find in this city. 20 minutes walking to the beach, close to the city center which has no attractive at all. Price is expensive for a backapacker's hostel but very cheap for the standards of this town. Gregg, the owner,... More
