Good location, despite the neighbourhood being quite quite late evening. Friendly hosts, but understandably not there after mid afternoon during Songkran. Common areas like the rooftop should be cleaned more frequently.

Absolutely loved my stay here! A friend and I stayed for 6 days and it was by far my favorite hostel yet. The rooftop has such a nice view of the area and gives a perfect space to meet other travelers. The rooms are small but just enough and very comfortable. It’s super close to a lot of the highlights around the area and just a few minutes walking distance into the old city! I would highly recommend a stay here :)

This hostel was in a great location, in the heart of Chinatown in Chiang Mai. There was no fridge or water machine, but the room was comfortable and the en suite bathrooms were a nice touch. The bins weren’t changed much but you just have to ask. Gary had some great recommendations for things to do nearby. The coffee from the cafe was really nice.

Very chill vibes, perfect minus so many stairs 😂 But the staff was so kind and flexible. As well as the other guests and visitors had good energy. The roof was very special when it wasn’t too hot, sometimes people came to play music. Could buy drinks like yummy coffee from the office, very convenient. 10/10 would love to come again.

Der Termperaturunterschied in dem Zimmer ist katastrophal. Wenn die Klima Stundenlang an ist, ist es in den unteren Betten eiskalt und oben kann immernoch ohne Decke geschlafen werden. Im hinteren Bett ist es unmöglich zu schlafen, da die Klima nach 5 min anfängt zu brummen sodass man es im ganzen Körper spürt. Zusätzlich fangen die Fenstern zu wackeln. Die Betten sind bei leichter Bewegung sehr laut und die Lüftung im Bad ebenso. Für Gepäck wie Koffer ist es ungeeignet. Personal ist ne...

Staff were lovely and accommodating, unfortunately was very ill when checking in, and the front lady allowed me to check in early and gave me water and paracetamol. Would highly recommend

This hostel was an easy 10/10. The owner, Gary, is extremely welcoming and helpful. Helping us book tours and find the right one for us. The roof area brings a unique experience to this hostel as I have found none others like it. Truly a one off hostel! The rooms, staff and facilities were excellent 👌 Highly recommend staying here if you are in Chang Mai.

Amazing rooftop terraces with views over Chiang Mai and cozy chill-out areas. Sometimes there's live music in the evenings. The hostel staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. I felt very comfortable here.

such a great hostel to stay at, cheap prices, great atmosphere and the rooftop is the best. and the owner GARY, he’s the best guy. He made sure everything was perfect, even provided extra towel and water for my trip, I’ll be surely staying here again.

The rooftop is awesome and the staff is sweet but that’s about it. Pretty dead, I was the only person in the room, same thing goes for the rooftop. Location is ok I guess, but not as central as other hostels. The main issue is the check out time which cannot be earlier than 8 am, and since I needed to check out at 7 am I had to leave my key at the reception at the latest at 10 pm the night before, so no freedom the night before your departure I guess haha

Dans l'ensemble super bâtiments avec un chouette rooftop (bien fin de journée/ soirée car en pliens soleil pas possible). Le personnel super gentil, serviable et agréable juste ils ne savent pas trop parler en anglais. Le vraie points négatif était la douche avec aucune pressions d'eau. C'est vraie que dans les dortoirs il y a peu d'intimité mais on a fait de super rencontre. Pour finir l'auberge est située dans un super chouette cartier où le soir pliens de street food!!!

It's a totally fine place to stay, just not very sociable and there is no kitchen. But fine if you just want a bed, fairly clean and the have a beautiful Rooftop from where to watch the sunset. I would stay there again. Just beware of really really hard beds ;)

Not very social other than the rooftop bar in the afternoons. Beds don’t have curtains which I thought was odd, and mine was too close to a full so I had to step over another bed to get to mine

Chambre dortoir très petite et pas très clean, il y a des fourmis et des traces sur le linge de lit, et pas d’intimité, on dors un peu les uns sur les autres avec un lit double au milieu de la pièce, ça fait plutôt chambre familiale. Pas très bien insonorisé, à minuit on entendait la musique mise par 2 personnes sur le toit terrasse. Je déconseille. Le seul avantage est l’emplacement sympa. Les employés ont quand même changé gentiment les draps.
