The location is perfect. The bed is comfy, not too noisy.

The staircase quite dirty, must do cleaning on the staircase. Also, inside the bedroom can add some very nice air freshener smells so it won't smell. The shower needs to fix, the water running very slow. This place requires a lot of maintenance for future backpackers.

Not really safe because mix with boys. Do not feel secure at all and loud too. I think the staff should clean the hostel.

Best hostel of KK no doubt, staff is amazing and is a great place to meet other travellers, the vibe here was great! Location can't be better and beds are comfy and clean, and the breakfast was also really good

Water power in the shower was really weak, if there was 2 person showering at the same time was really slow, also the wc lid where to sit was missing, is not the most comfortable one. Other than that everything was great
