Nice Hostel! Bathrooms were spacious and clean, same with the room. The mattress was thin tho. Wasn’t very social, could be because there weren’t a lot of other people around when I stayed. The street is busy and noisy, but okay. Staff was nice. Would recommend and stay again!

For me the hostel had a strange vibe and didn't feel very comfortable. There was a lot of wheet and people smoking. They also sell wheed there. I think if you don't like smoking it's probably not the best for you

Good place to stay, while social areas exist the place was pretty quiet, good if you want a quieter stay. Facilities were nice and kept clean. Not much spare room in the dorms and the higher lockers were not great for storing suitcases or long bags.

The hostel is amazing! All the common areas, including the bathrooms, are always clean and smell great. I especially want to thank Song and Peepee for being such kind people; they made everything so easy. My English isn't that great, and they were very patient with me. There was just one slightly awkward situation with some other reception staff on the Monday afternoon shift. I didn't know how to use the washing machine and couldn't quite understand what they were saying. When I went to sit in t...

Great location, big beds but quite springy, the showers also just dribbled out cold water there was only 1 shower you could control the temperature and had actual shower pressure down stairs. The lock system that speaks and beeps was also quite annoying in the night

Decent hostel in a great location. Walking distance from Sam yot MRT (15mins) and of course very close to khoasan road. Beds were average at best and bathrooms and toilets were okay. The photos you see aren’t exactly what you get. The walls are not soundproof at all so beware if you are a restless sleeper! On a positive note, the lady at the front desk was so lovely! She was very helpful with everything and even printed documents out for us.

Good location, close to Khao San road. Not a social hostel but clean and comfy. I recommend after a day of travel for a more relaxed time

matelas peu confortable, et une odeur qui laisse à désirer dans l’hostel. Et les gens fumes du canabis partout.

This staff isn't the friendliest and the person who checked me in was quite rude as if I was interrupting their day. When I got to my assigned bunk there was someone in it. I thought it was just a mistake and was going to take another bunk but needed to use the locker for the bunk I was assigned because I had the key for the locker. When I explained this to the person who was in my bed she called the person working the front desk and I was given a new bunk number/locker key... 30 minutes later. ...

El hostel es cómodo, las camas son espaciosas. Es un paraíso entrar de la calle a las habitaciones con aire acondicionado. Es ideal para dormir y descansar porque es silencioso. Los baños y las duchas son compartidos pero muy limpios. El espacio común es perfecto para trabajar
