Staff was wonderful! Really friendly and helpful with everything including early or late check in-out, keeping your luggage or anything overall. Nice location.

Amanda Italy

Great and cosy place. I had a wonderful sleep over, The staff is very friendly and smiles all the time. The good thing is there is no noise from Khaosan road. I just found a location that is far away from public transport and is hard to walk around. But if I wanna experience Khaosan road, it is perfect place for you.

Everything was pretty damn good for $10 or 350B. Great staff. Cozy Cafe downstairs. Great theme of decor.

Christopher United States of America

Awesome location. Friendly staff. A/C works well. Lots of privacy with the beds, that have curtains wrapping all the way around. The people who I met were all very nice. There's also a common area where it's possibel to sit and hang out; and it has A/C, and a variety of seats.

I stayed in the mixed dormitory room for 1 night stay. I loved the decoration of the hostel that looks like the inside of a train. The location was perfect. There are a lot of food shops and convenient stores nearby.
