I had a decent stay at Blanco Hideout Railay, but it had its ups and downs. The location is stunning, nestled on a hill with beautiful views, and the daily activities keep things lively. However, the mattress in my dorm was uncomfortably hard, and the air conditioning wasn’t functioning properly, which was disappointing.

The 6-bed dorm had a great view, but cleanliness was an issue. The sheets seemed to be poorly cleaned, and the bathrooms were not well-maintained.

The staff was somewhat overzealous, knocking on doors constantly about events, which felt unnecessary. On the other hand, they were entertaining and responsive during activities.

The hostel is located on a hill in the party area, offering a lively atmosphere and lovely views. But the climb can be tough, especially in the heat with heavy bags.

I had a decent stay at the hostel, mainly because of the stunning views and the pool area. but the facilities left something to be desired. The shared bathroom was less than pleasant, and the staff could be more welcoming. Overall, it has potential but needs some improvements.

Rooms

I stayed in a 4 Bed Dorm with Ensuite. the room had air conditioning, but the bathroom could really use some care. Showers got everything wet without a curtain, and the sink tap was faulty.

Facilities had great potential, especially the pool with ocean views. but the bathrooms could be cleaner and more attention could be given to the shared spaces.

My stay at Blanco Hideout Railay was enjoyable but had some drawbacks. The pool area was a great spot to relax and meet other travelers, which I loved. However, the room I stayed in was too dark and not very well-kept, and the shower pressure was quite inconsistent.

I stayed in a 10-bed mixed dormitory room, and while it wasn't the best room I've ever had, it served its purpose for a place to sleep. The lighting was very dim and made the space feel quite depressing at times.

Blanco Hideout is located up on a hill, which provided a cool view from the deck near the pool. It's close enough to walk to various bars and the beach, making it convenient for everything I wanted to do on Railay.

The pool area was excellent for socializing and relaxing. However, the bathrooms could definitely use some renovations as the showers were not in the best condition.
