The positive point is that they manage even with a delayed flight, to bring you to the boat, because the airport/port shuttle is included in the price. The negative is that it is not a private room; everyone is in a dormitory with basic mattresses even on the floor, on a ship mainly built for cargo. The comfort is very rustic, including the bathroom.
The trip felt real and I enjoyed watching the sunrise over the sea when I arrived in the morning, but I had to brace myself for a raw Thailand experience, even the toilets were part of that.
