Very bad - AVAOID
Terrible place. The room I booked was not available anymore. They put me in a room with no window, no AC. After arguing for 20 min, I got a room with AC but still no window.

Good location close to the beach fortunately off the busiest party beach, but was expecting more for this price. Blanket was some old fleece rag, air conditioner couldn't be turned on any different mode so options were hot or freezing during the night. Reception doesn't have a front door/lobby so doesn't feel very nice when any drunken person can just walk to your hotel door. Slept okay with earplugs but would've hoped to get a cleaner room for this price.

Perfect for us!
The reception staff were very sweet!! The room was very clean, the shower had shampoo and soap dispensers in it. The location was good. The food at the restaurant was great. I had the chicken panang and it was good and a decent price! The sandwiches were also very good. At night there was definitely a lot of noise but I don't get bothered by that so it was fine.

$36 bucks in Kho Phi Phi
well, you get what you pay for, the only really bad thing is that is close to the madness of the parties at the beach. the monstrous loudspeakers make it seem they are right behind you while you are trying to sleep and this is no Mozart music......so we just left our paid nights and spent $180.00 for a hotel on the other side of the bay and you could STILL hear the night noise...sad for the beautiful island, that is overunned by backpackers that part all night and sleep all day....will not stay at this property again and perhaps the island...

Stealing things and money
Everything would be perfect and we were happy about The hotel, till we did not moge out and going out we are missing Money and few staff!!!
We went on overnight camping last night we stayed there and obviously we packed day before so when we come back we have time for shower. We moved to other hotel and we needed to exchange the money...
We were missing 50£ and my friends £150!!! They hides it out from the bottom of our baggage!!! We were also missing little speaker so you can connect to the phone lipst sunglasses and you won't believe but used Venus shaver!!! I cannot believe it because we always left 10% tips and we did not caused any trouble as a thank you they stole money from us!!! Location good but honestly be aware of your belongings because they take what you leave unattended or just simply take all your baggeges with you on any trip so they cannot steal anything!!!!

Very disappointing
Sabai house was terrible. It was run down and dirty. The toilet didn't flush most of the time and the paint was peeling off the walls. Plug fell out of wall sockets. the bathroom had no toilet roll holder which they couldn't be bothered to fix. There was no shelf to put toiletries. The view from the window was of a broken fence and dirty rubbish. The room was meant to be cleaned but apart from a sweep not much was done. Noisy neighbourhood.

Very disappointing hotel
The hotel is very run down. Plugs fall out of wall sockets so it is hard to charge phones etc. There was no toilet roll holder which I pointed out to them but they weren't interested in fixing it. The toilet hardly worked and not at all on the last day. Just blocked up. Furnishings are old and room cleaning was very poor. My sheets were meant to be clean but were stained. No view from the window if you have one. The first room they offered had no window. I have travelled a lot and this is by far the worst hotel and most overpriced I have ever stayed at.

Nice, clean and cheap
The property was above my expectation for the price I paid. I stayed there for 3 nights, the room was big, nice and clean with a nice shared balcony. The location was perfect and there was a nice guy that picked me up from the ferry pear and helped me carrying my luggage. The only bad things I can think of is that it's almost impossible going sleep before 2am due to noisy people that you can hear from the street outside of the window. In additional, At the mornings you will probably be waking up when the sun is rising due to a lack of window blinds, there is a curtain but it doesn't block sun light.

Nice for the price
The best thing about this hotel is its location. It is still in the middle of the action on Phi Phi but far enough away from the beach that it is quiet at night. I am a light sleeper and had no problem with noise keeping me awake. It is not luxurious by any means but it is perfect for a couple nights on Phi Phi for people on a budget.

Wouldn't stay here again
Hotel was pretty awful , do not accept an 'upgrade' to the bungalows they aren't safe.
Once we had moved back to a room in the main hotel the rooms were noisy and there was a lot of stains everywhere !
No fridge and no hairdryer
Wouldn't stay here again I recommend spending a little more as a lot of the cheaper hotels in phi phi are all pretty bad !

Basic but nice
Basic rooms but clean and everything you need. Close to the beach. Somewhat noisy at night. Comfortable beds, had to ask for a blanket as they only use a sheet.

Calm and Quite place, with potential to improve
We stayed in Sabai house for 3 days during our honeymoon. It is located at about 700m from the passenger pier and as Phi Phi islands does not have transportation (unless u hire a porter/cart), its a long walk. Its a calm and quite place with close proximity to the Loh Dalam Bay (the party beach).
Pros:
Quiet place, yet not so far from party areas.
Reasonable room rent
Good breakfast
Cons:
Long walk from the pier
Beds needs to be better (roller legs, not so stable)
