Guest Reviews
- samy (1/5): - !!!!BED BUGS!!!!!
- Amit (9/5): - Nice location, clean and hygienic. Good hospitality by the staff. Comfortable bed. Value for money.
- Amit (8/5): - Nice Location, bed is comfortable. Staff is very polite and hospitable. Less rules and no security deposit.
- Mohamed (9/5): -
- Stanislava (7/5): It's a nice place, but I had loud Indians staying with me. I won't be returning to this hostel again. - Friendly stuff, rooftop, near to popular location Everything was fine until the last night, when an Indian guy turned on loud Indian music in the bathroom at two in the morning and was washing clothes. After that I decided to move to another hostel
- Tania (1/5): - ho pagato quattro volte e non mi hanno rimborsato i soldi
- Eduardo (6/5): -
- Haim (8/5): -
- Fabrice (7/5): Good stay for a good price. - Location was good and the room itself was pretty clean. Room had Ac, which however wasnt cold enough unfortunately. Asked a few days before for a bottom bed which was confirmed by the staff right after. When I arrived, I just got the keys for a upper bed and a change was not possible.
- Elise (7/5): Goede prijs kwaliteit, met een klein beetje comfort - Ik vond het heel fijn dat er een dakterras was, hier kon je ‘s avonds lekker verkoelen. Ook waren de huisregels duidelijk en werden goed nageleefd. Daarnaast was het personeel super vriendelijk. Het sanitaire gedeelte werd ik heel akelig van. Het was niet schoon en er was nergens plek om je spullen even neer te leggen. De wc hokjes waren zo klein, met mijn lange benen was het nog best moeilijk om hier comfortabel te kunnen zitten hahaha
- YUTO (1/5): -
- Kozera (1/5): Brod smrod w nizy po 12 rozmowy telefoniczne - Nic brod Lazienka pelna komarow w lozku pluskwy
- Jimok (1/5): 솔직 후기 - 가격은 저렴함 청결 최악, 숙소 유지 보수 관리 최악, 직원들 의사소통 및 친절도 최악임. 가격 싼 이유가 있고 차라리 몇천원 더 주고 근처 게스트하우스 가세요. 꼭.
- Stanislava (7/5): Not a bad hostel, but I won't return - convenient location high stairs and noisy neighbors
- Nico (1/5): DO NOT STAY HERE - Disgusting and awful - Nothing, we left on the same day we arrived. Most disgusting hostel I ever stayed in Mold, mold , mold - everything is rotten. Stains on the pillow and blankets. The smell is unbelievable. My wife and I are not picky at all. Can laugh about a bad place. We had to leave this place after 1 hour, because of the worst headaches. The A/C was rotten inside, definitely never got cleaned before. The pictures of a guy cleaning a room are just a show off. This place was definitely not cleaned. Bathrooms are just rotten and smelly. The owner definitely should be in prison - unfortunately I can’t share more pictures but this place should be closed asap

- McCauley (6/5): - showers were absolutely pristine which was lovely to see, i’ve been travelling for 2 months and i can safely say they were the best showers i’ve used yet mattress fairly hard but sleepable
- Taner (8/5): - Cleanliness is ok AC only work at evening until 10am, then you have fan but dont want to stay inside with humid and hot weather.
Towel was smelling and i think its made from nylon
- MAKOTO (8/5): 料金はお得 - スタッフは親切だが施設はまだまだ改善点が必要だと感じました。 ベッドの位置によっては冷房が効かずずっと暑かった。
- cracknell (6/5): -
- wouter (8/5): - De mensen Geen eigen wc en douche op de privé kamer maar wel een groot terras eraan wat het weer wat extra gaf !!! En de prijs was ook goed!
- Didier (7/5): -
- Weronika (9/5): - The location was perfect! The owner let me check in early which was really nice and contact with him was excellent, he was quick with responses and I felt taken care of. No problem with early check out. Felt completely safe as a solo travelling girl:) Condition of bathrooms isn’t the best, could get some renovation there, but I’ve seen cleaning team giving their best couple of times, so it’s not like it’s untidy!
- kau (1/5): This was an extremely bad experience. - The owner of this hostel forced guests, including myself, to provide selfies with our room key cards, and we had to send the photos to him via messaging apps like WhatsApp for check-in. The hostel promised to provide slippers and toilet paper, but in reality, no slippers were provided, and for several days I stayed, there was never any toilet paper or shampoo in the bathroom. The air conditioning only ran during bedtime, not at other times, but this wasn't stated in the policy. Near check-out, the owner asked me for a positive review, which I suspected was fake, so I refused. After I gave the hostel my first negative review today, the owner launched into a vicious attack on me via WhatsApp, sending me my personal information, passport photos, and a selfie with my room key card, with a clear threatening tone, since I had told him I would be frequently visiting Thailand. Due to this violation of my personal dignity, I feel compelled to give this hostel a negative review again.

- Maxime (10/5): Pratique et pas cher - C'est un hostel sans histoire, pratique car assez bien situé par rapport aux lieux d'animation et le prix est franchement attractif.
On est aux antipodes de l'ambiance d'un party hostel et ça m'allait très bien comme ça !
J'ai commandé plusieurs nuit successivement et je n'ai jamais eu aucun problème.
- Missey (7/5): - Location good, staff lovely, private room was good. The bathroom was almost unusable. I’m not normally fussy and I hate to complain but the mould in the bathroom was awful creating an awful smell and making it so difficult to go to the toilet/ shower. If it wasn’t for this everything would’ve been fine as the room was good and staff were so lovely. I hate to complain as I did see the staff cleaning the toilets every day! I just think something more needs to be done about the mould as it’s not healthy.
- Hiroki (10/5): -
- Mehmet (1/5): BED BUGS - BED BUGS!!! Unfortunately I have to give this review for that place to warn future travelers. The facilities are okay otherwise, BUT!!! there are too many bed bugs in the dormitory, the staff is aware but is not informing guests and let them check in and put all their luggage close to the bed and once you fall asleep you are getting bitten everywhere. They are trying to fix the problem but not in an efficient way, they are just moving guests up and down making the problem even worse. If they close the dorms for a serious amount of time to fix the situation the hostel could be okay but for now just avoid it, unless if you want to end up having the stress of getting rid of them yourself
- Jake (6/5): - Room was good, good location. Toilet/ shower rooms could do with some modernisation.
- Tobias (10/5): - Everything. Great location, very nice staff. Can only recommend.
- Cynthia (7/5): - Staff is nice. Easy to access. Not always clean, no toilet paper at all.
- Chandler (10/5): I ended up leaving for koh lanta that night because I’m not a fan of Bangkok. Only stayed 2pm-8pm - Beds were comfortable and there was a patio in the dorm to smoke on so I didn’t have to go downstairs It was very hot during the day, but there was a fan in the dorm so it wasn’t bad
- Sara (7/5): -
- Bek (2/5): Infested with bedbugs, bathroom is disgusting. - Infested with bedbugs, bathroom is disgusting.
- Vanessa (10/5): - La camera era pulita il personale gentile Tutto bello
- mario (7/5): Alles in allem ganz gut - Preis und Lage sind gut Kein küche
- Félix (5/5): -
- Charlotte (6/5): - Le personnel est très arrangeant, souriant, sympathique. L’hostel est bien placé et la chambre que nous avions réservée (chambre double) avait une super terrasse privée ! Les salles de bains et toilettes sont vétustes mais pourraient être ok si les autres usagers n’étaient pas aussi sales…
- Mullika (6/5): -
- Wojciech (8/5): All good - All good All good
- mateusz (6/5): - They turn off ac between 8 and 11 and 18 and 21 and I can't get it. It's so stupid.
- Mohamed (1/5): Find better place - Location Not clean bed bugs
- Mohamed (2/5): Search for better - Location Cleaning staff not professionnel
- talakah (4/5): - Desk opens at 9 am and closes at 11 pm. We arrived the hostel at 5 am and waited until 9 am just to cancel our reservation which they didn't even do it.

- mateusz (6/5): - Wyłączanie klimatyzacji w godzinach 8-11 i 18-21 jest idiotycznym pomysłem, tylko za to ocenka leci w dół.
- Maurizio (10/5): Ottimo - Tutto perfetto, soggiorno perfetto, grazie Nulla, era tutto perfetto
- Maurizio (10/5): Ottimo ostello, buona anche la cucina - Staff molto gentile, pulizia ottima e ottima cucina Era tutto molto buono

- Elisabeth (7/5): - Personeel was heel vriendelijk
Alles wat ik nodig had was er. De algemene toestand van het sanitair is aan vernieuwing en een goede POETSBEURT toe
- Danny (1/5): - Arrived at 2am got to the room to find bugs in the bed obviously couldn't proceed to stay considering this and had to find new accommodation still yet to receive an apology or refund from either the accommodation or booking.com itself poor all round.
- Adrianna (8/5): - Great location, good value for money and very friendly staff! I arrived around 9 am and they let me check in already.. The bathrooms are quite moldy, not a big deal for a 1-2day stay but that could be improved.
- Alba (2/5): No lo recomiendo en absoluto - La ubicación Bastante sucio, las habitaciones muy pequeñas para haber 8 camas, en las miniterrazas la gente fumaba por lo que entraba todo el olor a la habitación…Hostel cero recomendable
Son 4 euros pero por 6 euros encuentras muy buenas opciones
- Abadou (10/5): - The only thing that were not comfortable is the stairs.
- Bram Staal (1/5): - The staff amazing. The common areas dirty because of some dirty and unrecpectful Indians who call in the middel of the night. The staff should be more strict about those people.
- Philip savage (10/5): Perfect - Well done was perfect for me easy going no fuss I will stay there again if I visit it was in a nice little bar area not far from the Khoa San road ,,,cute little Panda pippin people working there always ready to help lol many thanks Phil
- Abdulla (9/5): -
- Basist (8/5): - The room was small, the washroom can have an overhaul, overall ok stay, not that good.
- juan (5/5): - Solo reserve para poder dejar la maleta mientras esperaba al avión y poder ducharme Falta de mantenimiento, literas cutres, baño asqueroso.... no dormiría ahí, vale para lo que hice yo.
- youssef (9/5): -
- Steven (7/5): Viel Potential, aber die Kommunikation muss verbessert werden. - Vom Raum her eine gute Erfahrung! Die Dachterrasse war einzigartig! Leider habe ich um einen Tag Verlängerung gebeten, was mir auch zugesagt wurde. Ich sollte nur das Zimmer wechseln, da mein Raum bereits ausgebucht war. Am Tag des Umzugs teilte man mir mit, man habe die Buchujg nicht vermerkt und das (neue) Zimmer sei nun ausgebucht. Sehr ärgerlich! Ich musste mir dann eine neue Unterkunft suchen
- Ulrich (9/5): Schönes Hostel mit coolem Doppelzimmer! - Für den Preis war das Doppelzimmer super. Die Lage im Backpackerviertel sollte einem bewusst sein, wir fanden es aber sehr gut zu erreichen.
Natürlich ist es nicht fancy, aber insgesamt war alles sauber genug und im Doppelzimmer hat man sogar eine eigene Terasse! Die gute Bewertung für diesen Preis ist gerechtfertigt, aber habt keine falschen Vorstellungen! Hostelbad wie man es sich vorstellt halt :) aber noch voll ok, ich habe bedeutend schlimmeres erlebt!
- Patricia (4/5): - El personal amable y la ubicación buena. La cama grande y cómoda. La habitación está en una terraza que las escaleras que hay que subir son muy estrechas y empinadas y bajar por ahí con todo lo de aseo etc se hacía pesado. La ducha bastante descuidada aunque limpia, estaba todo medio roto...me he quedado en hostels por el mismo o mejor precio en la zona que estaban mucho mucho mejor.
- Michal (10/5): - Clean, perfect staff, good food, good location 👌 Everything was great 👍
- Karolina (4/5): Disappointing - Location was good. The booking says 4 beds but that really means 8 beds (8 people) in the room which was very misleading. Also the bathroom was very dirty, super small and overall it was awful. In the room the sheets were dirty also. I'd say avoid this hostel!!!!
- Sophie (1/5): cweepy - good location don’t stay here as a girl, felt very unsafe, not a single girl there. main clientele were 40 year old men. some were quite creepy. slept with one eye open.
- Sébastien (10/5): The dorms are comfy and the staff is really kind 🫰 - The dorms are comfy and the staff is really kind 🫰
- Mateus (8/5): Decent value for money - Decent location, and easy to go places from there (walking, grab and public transport). Staff was really nice and the dorm clean. The bathroom needs a little renovation. But it was OK.
- Rebecca (7/5): Overall nice experience in a good location. - Stayed here for two nights on a solo trip in Bangkok. I was in a mixed dormitory room. The bed is very comfortable and spacious, offering enough privacy; there was also a little balcony to dry our clothes. The room was overall very quiet. It's also a great location, within walking distance from some of the main attraction of the city. Staff was also kind. My first impression of the hostel was a bit sketchy, and I generally didn't feel much safe here. Nonetheless, nothing happened and everything went quite smoothly. Lights were on until very late at night in the room, which can be a bit annoying. I also didn't get much of a 'backpacking' socializing kind of vibe, but I was out most of the time so I didn't put much effort into this.
- Daniel (8/5): Very good - Smiling and respectful staff.
- Joao (6/5): Pleasant -
- Rabaka (7/5): Good - The place was clean and I was happy o bout it
Towels were provided which is always a nice touch
And a little fan is placed on every single bed so you can cool down a bit Toilet were not great
The shower room was so muggy as there were no windows that as soon as I finished the shower I was sweating
Not a massive problem but not pleasant either
- Lucie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vikram (9/5): Superb -
- Mateo (4/5): Many things to improve. - Good location, nice restaurant on the first floor, potable water available. The AC wasn’t cold enough during the night (had to sleep in underwear, without any covers and with the separation curtains open). Also I had bedbugs (a lot), I told the staff and they changed my sheets. Finally the floor of the bathroom was always wet and seemed dirty.
- Mateo (6/5): Pleasant -
- Ovidiu (8/5): Very good -
- Bancher (8/5): Very good -
- Özgür (10/5): Exceptional - It was nice to stay here
- Lucas (8/5): Very good -
- Will (10/5): Exceptional -
- Samuel (7/5): Good - Very friendly staff, safe and secure, good location with lots of bars and restaurants nearby (a good restaurant on the ground floor too). A little shabby and cramped but our private room was fine.
- Alan (8/5): Very good - Good cheap places to stay in a good location.
- Jamie (9/5): Superb -
- Liz (5/5): The bathrooms definitely need an improvement - The staff was nice and the location is good The bathrooms as well the rooms definitely need maintenance, properly cleaning, and the space to take a shower practically doesn't exist, it's ridiculous
- Talisker (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ella (7/5): Good -

- Anna (8/5): Very good -
- María (10/5): Exceptional - Best hostel in Bkk.
- Gyeongrok (10/5): Exceptional - Clear bed, kind and cute staff
- Bancher (6/5): Pleasant -
- Sarah (1/5): Mosquitos In The Bedrooms - Great staff, very attentive and nice.
It's on a nice street with places to eat and a 7-Eleven nearby.
There's space to dry your clothes if you wash them.
The bed was comfortable.
Privacy curtain is big enough.
It's cheap and the people who work there are really nice and they give you a small lock and a towel. There are mosquitos in the rooms so I got some bites, and the door doesn't close fully so there is no way to stop mosquitos coming in. Also a little tobacco or weed smoke gets in when people smoke on the balcony so it smells bad but the smell is very mild in the room. It impacts the hall and bathroom more.
Had to ask for toilet paper but they did then bring it quickly, and it was available in the bathroom downstairs at least. In the fourth floor bathroom there was no soap so people had to bring their own. The bathroom floors are always wet and slippy from the showers.
The lockers are tiny and barely fit a laptop so are really just for valuables rather than a bag, which is awkward for a one-night stay where you don't want to have to unpack a lot.
The air-conditioning in the room is on a set times so it's more eco-friendly but it's almost too warm to sleep with any blanket over you even when the air conditioner is on overnight.
There is a small fan at your bed, and a light, but for both you need to provide your own USB plugs to use them so for most people they're not usable if you want to charge your phone at the same time. I had to charge things off my laptop to be able to use the lamp.
The wifi is bad. It could only load the HTML of a basic website I tried to open downstairs. I didn't try using internet in the bedroom so maybe it's okay there.
The air-conditioning in the downstairs area is poor so it's very warm there. I didn't try the food.
The towel they give you doesn't dry you very well but it's so hot that it doesn't matter much.
The room gets noisy like in any mixed dorm in a hostel hostel with people snoring and talking but I can't comment on it being any noisier than other places as I use earplugs and headphones to block out sound.
- Wojciech (10/5): Exceptional - All good All good
