Private room was a bit lackluster but place was really nice!

Sympa comme auberge étape. Les lits sont très durs. La porte est automatique avec un code etc mais fait énormément de bruit, encore plus quand ça bug et qu’elle sonne pendant 20min.. les douches sont un peu crade mais ça va par rapport à d’autre auberge. Situé dans le vieux Chiang Mai et quelques trucs a côté.

4 bed dorm room was tiny and didn’t really have space for people’s luggage. The beds are hard but that’s expected in Thailand. You aren’t provided with a towel which I didn’t realise beforehand but I guess for £5 a night you can’t really complain. The women’s bathroom was downstairs from our dorm room which was slightly annoying given the men’s bathroom was on our floor. The door lock makes very loud musical sounds when opened/closed. My friend had her headphones taken so it did...

This was well located for during the lantern festival. The staff were great. However, the 4 bed dorm was tiny with barely enough space for bags. The beds were rock hard, and on my first night I had to request to move beds as there were ants crawling across my wall. My headphones disappeared from my room and whilst staff went above and beyond to help, they were not found and I had to leave accepting they had been taken from my room. staff as helpful as they could be but it was very upsetting.

Got bitten by spiders and ants, another girl was having every single possible meal in the room, sometimes at 11PM, on checkout I mentioned the issue and the staff tried to give me a band aid to solve the problem. For sure they need to improve cleanliness and if possible ask people to use the KITCHEN to eat, instead of eating on the bed.

great hostel, rooms are a bit cramped and could do with a mosquito blue light in them but other than that was great thanks :)

Chouette hostel, propre. Frigo et vaisselle à disposition. Système de codes un peu embêtant. Une seule douche pour les chambres et tout le dortoir.. pas très pratique.

Clean, good bathrooms, great location, quiet vibe. No activities or anything but that’s okay. Mattresses are hard as rocks.

An sich war die Einrichtungen sehr gut, das Bad war sehr groß, das Wohnzimmer war gut, das Zimmer sauber und im Bett hatte man noch eine kleine Ablagefläche die praktisch war. Jedoch hatte man im Zimmer sehr wenig Platz für sein Gepäck, sodass man sehr viel im Bett lagern musste. Auch war das Hostel überhaupt nicht sozial und Nachts hat jemand im Zimmer so laut geschnarcht wie wir es in unserem Leben noch nie gehört haben, wodurch das Schlafen in der Nacht fast unmöglich war.

Clean, tidy and good location. Kitchen has a fridge and utensils. Room is very tiny and not enough space for bags. Staff are uninterested and hostel is not social at all. It was fine to stay one night but if you’re a solo traveller looking to stay in Chiang Mai for a few days and make friends, I wouldn’t stay here.

I got a single room and was pleased with the cleanliness and security. I checked in late but luckily there was a staff member leaving who helped me get into the building/my room. I was sent an email explaining how to do it, but it was much easier with someone there showing me the way. The rooms are on the top floors of a café. The women's bathroom was clean with stalls. There is a shared lounge w/ fridge and appliances too. The staff all spoke good Eng., but gave off uninterested barista vibes.

The best thing was probably the bathrooms, super clean, light and spacious. Good location to get around both the old and new city. However the 4-bunk rooms were TINY, with not enough space for all 4 of us to keep our bags in. Being above a cafe was a bit strange, as there was no atmosphere what so ever, which made it hard to know what to get up to around the city.

The hostel was very clean. Also very close to many things in town. The cafe downstairs was convenient to get a quick snack and coffee in the morning. It was pretty quiet but that might be because people were out most of the time. The living space above the cafe was small but a good place to chill.

Die Mitarbeiter sprechen kaum Englisch und helfen den Gästen nicht so wirklich. Die Zimmer sind extrem klein und eng. Es gibt keinen Stauraum für Gepäck. Die Matratzen sind außerdem extrem hart und unbequem. Zwar sind die Zimmer sicher durch Schlösser, die mit Zahlencodes gesichert sind, allerdings ist das elektronische Zahlenschloss sehr laut, was vorallem in der Nacht stört. Es ist toll, dass es Vorhänge und richtige Decken gibt. Die Zimmer und Badezimmer sind aber echt sauber.

Lovely place to stay if you’re looking for somewhere quiet! I stayed here for 5 nights whilst I explored Chang Mai, and I really liked it here - very central, friendly staff, air conditioned rooms, and great coffee downstairs! This is not a social/party hostel, so not the best place if you’re looking to meet people & hang out in the hostel. If you are looking for a chill place to rest, then this is perfect ✨
