Every room comes with a shared bathroom with a shower, while some rooms here will provide you with a balcony and others also provide guests with city views. At the hostel rooms are equipped with a seating area. I loved staying in this hostel. It’s a laidback yet social hostel. Great way to meet people and the receptionist/owner was very kind, helpful and friendly. They’re very attentive to cleanliness. Location is great— right at the city center minus the busy traffic since it’s in an open alley.

I chose this hostel hoping to meet some people after being alone in my previous hostel (low season) and it didn't disappoint! The staff (international) was amazing. There is a pool table, everyone uses grab to order food at the big table in the garden, they organize games etc, so everything is made to connect people which is the best part about traveling. This hostel is just perfect for backpackers. You can rend scooters, they give you recommandations about activities. I was supposed to stay one night but I decided to extend. Toilet and showers are outside of the room which is great. There is free water. The surrounding is great and Blue Temple and Chiang Rai Bus Terminal 1 are close.
