You are hard pressed to find anywhere amongst the town in Phi Phi where you will escape the loud hustle and bustle of bars and parties as well as the noise of ever increasing construction around the hostels and hotels. Unfortunately the RC Guesthouse is right in the mixer and is also situated to what I suspect to be a place where the working girls bring back their clients.

The rooms are very basic but they are clean and secure. For the money that it costs to stay here it is good value for money||||The bed was quite hard, and there was no storage in the room but was fine for staying a few nights. The toilet is not fully enclosed as the wall does not go all the way to the ceiling; I don't know if this is true for every room but was for the one I was in.
