to get started.

Great things about this place: - Yes, It’s quiet. We stayed in the single room as a couple. Could hear much. Maybe just some chatter from people walking up/down stairs. - The staff. 24hr staff. Very kind, helpful and encouraging. - It’s upscale for a hostel in my opinion. Price is very reasonable. Amazing A/C. - Didn’t get a chance to try the cafe but it seemed great. - Clean, mature and respectful environment.

Even though it is located in Khao San Road, it was still such a pleasant stay. It was quiet, there were food stalls outside, and most importantly.. it was clean! From bathroom, toilet, and room!

The bed was big and comfortable. Big lockers just outside the room. I booked some one day trip at the front desk, which was perfect for my plans. The streets nearby are lively, i loved it. You can walk to the palace or the taxi boat in 15/20 min.

From the Suvarnabhumi Airport， you can take the (80THB) S-1 Shuttle to Khao San Road. When you get off the bus, walk south towards Khao San Road, On your left you will quickly see a Burger King & A Starbucks, Take the next left, down a small, food stalled, alley. You’ll easily discover the Hostel on your right, 50 paces down. The cafe serves great coffee/drinks. The A/C, the comfortable seats, choice of tables, and great WI-FI makes the lobby area a great common space. In the dorms, each bed is larger than standard, with personal lights, locks/locker, and outlets.

- They let me check-in as soon as I arrived - at 6AM = 8 hours before official check-in time, no questions asked. Great stuff! - They were ok with me staying there until the evening after the check-out. I really appreciate that.

The interior of the dorm is a bit worn out. Some roommates are super noisy, but that is not hostel's fault. There is no curtain to cover the window. The hostel is much smaller than I thought. The pictures look better than reality.
Great location close to khao San road, many hood food around.

Location was great, right near khaosan but very quiet. The rooms were comfortable.

Pretty much nothing, on the 2nd night 3 guys came in the 6 beds room and they start to drink and have a party in there, i gently asked to go downstairs but they didn't. On the next the i asked the staff to change the room and i went in the 12 beds room wich was almost empty and also cheaper.

The cafe is closed on a Monday so I couldn’t get a coffee, however it’s really no problem. Everyone deserves a day off!
Really helpful staff, clean & comfortable. Stayed previously and no doubt I’ll stay again.

“Wonderful!!”

- The sinks were dirty and/or had rust on the porcelain. I actually read someone say that in a review. And I thought to myself: “Really, you’re going to complain about sinks? Then everything else must be awesome.” And I was right. Everything else was awesome. - If you’re booking the single room, be aware the door has no window curtain on it, it’s only blurred glass. So if lights come on in the hallway, lights come on in your room. This could easily be solved with curtains/magnetics or just a blindfold. - Nothing else to complain about. Great stay, enjoyed my time. You will too.

The lobby at ground floor was really nice and clean but there were some rats at night and that's quite scaring since it was where they make the food. The Aircon at night was too cold, I had to put some warm clothes every night.
The bed and the room were clean, also the sanitary and the corridors. The environment is pretty cool and relaxed, especially the common area at ground floor. The staff was also friendly and nice. The position is good as well, just 3 minutes from khaosan road but it was a really calm place .

we had a private room and the door were not really helping with the noice nor light from the doorway. Also there were these metal doors on toilets and showers which are really nice but everytime someone closes it it bangs really loudly. I think simple foam on the doorseal would solve it.
