Guest Reviews

• Ali (10/5): Exceptional - It’s very clean the stuff are amazing Ash, Abi , and mrj I don’t think I wrote a correct names they are amazing and I recommend every solo traveler to stay in bodega… Ali Moataz from Iraq 🇮🇶
• Farkhodjon (7/5): Good - The hostel is quite decent overall. The location is convenient, and the staff were very friendly and polite. However, the coffee machine was not working during my stay, and the alcohol served at the property was about three times more expensive than usual.

• Islam (8/5): Very good -
• Ribhav (10/5): Perfect urban and aesthetic vibe place - This hostel is in the city center and many places are close by. They have an amazing social area with a bar and the nicest people. They went beyond expectations to accommodate me and helped me in my travel related queries. Nhui was the best.
• Eddy (8/5): Very good - Mediterranean Greek blue 💙 friendly, spacious room big bathroom inside, comfy beds, balcony. Good location for inner city close to lots of action . Can't complain for $2.50 per night
• Muhammed (6/5): Pleasant -
• Priyansh (10/5): Exceptional -
• Chague (10/5): Place well-maintained and very nice staff - The place is clean, well maintained and the staff is helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this hoqtel to anyone who is looking for a good experience filled youth energy. Nothing to declare
• Rohitas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Waseem (10/5): Excellent hostel with excellent staff and location - Excellent Lights
• Isana (5/5): I only liked the location. There are no curtains and they rent sheets. - I only liked the location. The bar/restaurant is also good. There are no curtains, which is the basic thing a hostel should have. Renting bed sheets is absurd. There are no curtains, which is the basic thing a hostel should have. Renting bed sheets is absurd.
• Arul (7/5): Good -
• Maureen (1/5): Unsafe. Avoid at all costs. Pay extra elsewhere for a sound sleep. - I am not one to write a review but I do not want anyone to ever have a night like I did at this hostel. It's a serious problem. I would strongly urge people NOT to stay here. I have travelled all over the world for years and have stayed in numerous hostels in South America, India, China, Vietnam, North Africa and Europe. I have never felt more unsafe in a hostel before. The hostel is motel style, meaning the rooms open onto the street. There is absolutely no security so anyone could walk in off the street into your room at any time. This is a busy area with lots of bars and nightclubs nearby. There is a lock on the door to the room but my roommates were very bad at locking the door. I was so scared. I was up every hour to make sure the door was locked (usually when I checked it wasn't locked because my roommates where in&out all night, most of the time I was alone in the room) I could not sleep soundly knowing anyone could come into the room at any point in the night. Another major issue re safety is that there are no lockers. When I mentioned this they said they could keep my valuables at the desk, which closes overnight until about 8am. Not one of the staff mentioned this to me so I am SO thankful that I did not leave my passport with them as I would have missed my early flight had I left it with reception because my passport would have been locked away god knows where with no one to get it for me. There was not even a phone number to call in case of emergencies and nowhere to go when I felt unsafe in my room. I felt so so vulnerable. I've never stayed at a hostel where the reception closes (and the fact that no one mentioned this to me was baffling). The lack of curtains, dirty washrooms, and having to pay extra for bedding are barely worth mentioning compared to the extremely unsafe situation I was in staying at this hostel. I am not a picky person, I know the difference between discomfort and when something is unsafe. This place is unsafe.
• Amin (4/5): Disappointing - The staff is really nice and the location is great. Also its a relatively cheap price Unfortunately theres a lot of things that are not good about this hostel: -cockroaches in the bathroom and in general the bathroom is not clean and shampoo and shower gel are not provided contrary to the room description -you wont get a blanket they charge 75 Baht extra if you want one, I've stayed in a lot of hostels and this is the First time I had to pay for a blanket -there are no curtains on the beds -thin walls you can hear almost everything, its necessary to have earplugs -it said there is an age restriction only allowing people between 18-35 to book the hostel, however there are many guests that are a lot older ( I didnt mind but you shoud know if you care about that) -The AC is not working that well Especially the condition of the bathroom and the extra charge for the blanket are big no gos, I hope it can be improved in the future

• Abhinab (1/5): Avoid and you must - Nothing …. I wonder how booking is rating it high Very bad …. AC not working …. Only fan …. When complained, the staff asked to pay extra and move to another dorm …. Common area not accessible beyond 12 where AC is working …. Extra for blanket, towel, etc …. Washroom doesn’t have hand wash, shower gel, etc …. I don’t even think anyone cleans
• Andrew (6/5): Pleasant -
• Filipe (5/5): Looks abandoned - Price Might have been a famous hostel chain in the past but it's falling apart. Clearly needs maintenance, it's dirty, there are no lights in the room, no soap in the bathrooms and they even charge you if you want a blanket to cover yourself while sleeping. Ridiculous place
• Bruno (1/5): Bad -
• Bruno (1/5): Bad -
• Sujesh (10/5): Exceptional -
• Hieu (8/5): Very good - good location, clean facilities. little pricey for the price but location is important in bangkok overall positive
• David (5/5): Good enough for a short stay. - You pay what you get. In overall it was ok and good enough for a short stay as I was aware of it. The good: - helpful staff and kind. - the place is clean and the amnesties show some ages but it is ok. - electrical plugs and light for each bed. - towel is provided. - social place to hang out. The bad: - no privacy into the dorm room as there are no curtains for each beds as shown on the pictures. - small lockers just enough to input a handbag and bring your padlock. - no lockers or storage for backpackers or suitcases size. - beds are not assigned, so make sure to "mark" your bed. To late check-in, please ensure to check the open hours, otherwise you will "lose" one night.
• Dijan (5/5): Passable -
• Joshua (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly staff and room mates. Kop khun krap
• Yuan-hsiang (8/5): Very good -
• Solana (8/5): Very good - Nice hostel and very friendly personal. Also it was close to public transportation both metro and skytrain, which it makes eassy to move around the city. i dont have really any negativ points about the hostel.
• Sohel (6/5): Pleasant -
• Ajith (10/5): Exceptional -
• Istvan (6/5): It was alright - - great location next to sky train and metro - friendly receptionists - bedsheet was clean - room was okay - air conditioning worked well - I received clean towel and blanket - it was alright - there were mosquitoes in the room - bathroom was completely unacceptable, dirty floor and walls, broken doors, shower door couldn’t be closed, it hasn’t been cleaned since months
• Muthukumaravel (6/5): Pleasant - Staffs and affordable Didn't provide blankets and the bed was open
• Dimitrije (3/5): if you need a cheap place to stay for the night this might be the place - for the price, cant really complain but left a lot to be desired Beds had no blanket (had to pay extra), shower would make loud noise all night long, a/c only blew hot air, no locker large enough to fit backpack, not much of an intro from staff (was kinda just given the key and told "here you go)
• Panichsakul (2/5): Not recommended - The location They don’t provide basic necessities such as blankets and charge for them if we need one
• Marco (4/5): Low quality… and really dirty - Air conditioner Pillow and blanket is not included in the price. Is an additional cost.
• Liz (10/5): Beautiful place in Bangkok - Good location, beds are comfy and excellent environment No kettle for guests. No blankets included. We had to pay 75 extra for blankets. Suggestion: low prices of restaurant.
• Liz (10/5): Excellent location - Excellent location ! I liked the environment with outdoor seating The showers need stronger cleaning and reparations
• Arjun (9/5): Superb - Receptionist is very nice. I felt like I am talking to my younger sister. Location of hostel is good.
• Md (6/5): Pleasant - Reception girl is soo humblee🥰
• Andy (5/5): Passable -
• Yuko (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michael (1/5): Not suitable for anyone over the age of 30. - Nothing Everything
• Ergin (9/5): Superb - I was satisfied with the location, service, staff and cleanliness, thank you to each of them
• Jorunas (4/5): Disappointing - The bed smelled full of beer and no blankets were given
• Ahsan (1/5): Pathetic - Shower don't work, heating is not working in bathroom shower, staff don't care about the feedback, internet was very slow Only the location
• Mathieu (5/5): Passable - Neither fan nor AC in the room, which I can deal with but window open so many mosquitos... the man next to me spent a big chunk of the night hunting them with his phone flash on... probably attracting more of them... ending up using a trekking sheet to cover myself but then hard not to be too warm...

• Laminn (10/5): Exceptional - "Super friendly Staff, very warm welcome from Regie 😊. Ultra clean and comfortable beds. We stay for a total of 14 days at Bodega. My family loves the large room with good lighting and balcony. It's a lovely tiny garden and sitting area is amazing for my friend and family reunion. Prices are unbeatable in the Sukhumvit location. I feel like my home away from home. I recommend this place 100%.Thanks for the management team. 😊.I'll be back again. Nothing at all. Everything is great 👍
• Alby (6/5): Pleasant -
• Ali (7/5): هوستل جيد - I like a man from the Philippines who is respectable and kind
• Arslan (10/5): Exceptional - Good place clean beds . One suggestion is to put water dispenser like other hostles are providing
• Andy (9/5): Superb -
• Farrukh (6/5): Pleasant -
• Pyae (1/5): I booked a two-night stay. I texted message what time i would arrive in the morning, but when I got there, it was closed -
• Emma (7/5): Good - Close to big metro stations and malls, nice design, theoretically social, but not really during my stay The staff was helpfull and let me check-in a little in advance and let me store the luggage and use the shower before the check-in and after the check-out The bed is comfortable, AC works well, many showers and bathrooms in relatively good conditions The bathrooms were often dirty, but I guess it was fault of the users more than the cleaning-staff Only the floor in the room I would say it had been neglected for a long while One objective problem: on the first day of my stay the WiFi wasn't working (but on the second day it worked)
• Emma (7/5): Good - The staff was helpfull (I could use the shower and the luggage storage before the check-in and after the check-out), the beds were comfortable, AC was working well, towel and cover were provided, there were many bathrooms and showers and relatively clean, location near to metro stations The bathrooms were sometimes dirty, but it was clearly fault of the last users more than lack of cleaning. Just the floor of the room could have been cleaned a bit more often. The first day the WiFi wasn't working at all (but the second day it did)
• Laminn (10/5): Feel like home - Quiet area, only 10 minutes walk to MRT. Friendly staff. Reasonable price. Everything is alright.
• Luca (6/5): Ok for one night - It's cheap and nice to hangout with other guests. Good bar and good food. They don't have blankets for sleeping. The privacy in the rooms is like 0, no curtains or something else to cover yourself.
• Hiran (7/5): Good - Room
• Nithin (10/5): Worth every penny i paid - Very cozy atmosphere I found a lack in cleanliness
• Truver (6/5): Pleasant -

• Sms_28 (6/5): Good Stay - Really helpful staff. Good facilities. At a prime location, close to MRT.
• John (10/5): Exceptional - Location is great. Facilities were really good. Will definitely return again!
• Siva (6/5): Pleasant -
• Karan (10/5): Bodega is good place to meet good people in Center of city close to Sukhmvit metro - King is cool and I forget the name of lady who manages reception in morning, she is also kind
• Tamalloukte (2/5): Insects on the beds - Sorry but nothing. The welcoming remains as desired. I spent one night there and I didn't sleep because in the dormitory I found small black insects on the bed and even when I wanted to change beds I found the same ones. So late in the night I went down to complain, luckily there was still a guy at reception who was going to leave, he suggested I change dormitories and he was sure there would be nothing in this one since before the top floor dorm I was in already had these kinds of hygiene issues. So there is really a lack of maintenance and cleanliness. the neighborhood is also not at all frequentable.
• Mohamad (1/5): It was very bad - It was very good but now very very bad Treatment of employees The place very dirty

• Frank (8/5): Very good -
• Zornitsa (4/5): No blanket , no curtains on the beds , so no privacy at all . Everyone cover themselfs with bath towels - that’s ridic - Location No blanket , no curtains
• Sourav (8/5): Very good -
• Chris (10/5): Exceptional -
• Julia (6/5): Ok location and cheap, but has some issues (off-season?) - Location is good, not too far from the subway, and Sukhumvit is a popular destination. It's nice to have AC inside all rooms and it's great value for bangkoK! The outside area looks cute and being alley helps to protect from street noise. Staff was friendly in general. Be ready to only have bed linen covering the mattress and your pillow. Everyone was using their towels (that are given) as blankets/covers. I'd rather have the other way around, as backpackers usually carry travel towels. There's no shared kitchen and the bar inside the hostel is not cheap (and often I've found it empty) considering the area. The bar itself looked ready for a party, full of drinking games around, but I guess being off-season (June) put the energy down. Yet, what was hard to deal with was the dirty/smelly bathroom and overall housekeeping... I was in the big room, most of my roommates being men and I understand that it does not help the toilet to not be smelling, but the room bin was full and also I waited two days till I asked someone at the reception to deal with the sink that was not draining. Plus, my friend stayed in the 6bed female room 301, and there was a girl there dealing with the room if she was the queen of it... She's probably living there for a while... Took all the stools of the room, would sleep during the day and wake up at night... Asking to be quiet during the day and being noisy during the night... And complaining my friend was locking the room's door (as required by the hostel and also because she felt more sage), keeping it open frequently... We didn't want trouble and left to alert the staff when we were doing our check-out, but unfortunately the staff that speaks English was not there 8:20am, although at booking it says 8am starts check-out. Hope you can address that!
• Seitov (1/5): My things were STOLEN and the staff doesn't do anything. - Nothing Upon check-in, they take your passport and require a 500 baht deposit. They force you to sign a paper stating fines for losing towels and keys.The contingent is doubtful. They lead a night lifestyle, hang out in the room until 4-5 of the morning, and take girls. The rooms are mixed, there are no separate rooms for women. The beds are located inconveniently and squeak. Noisy, unsafe, uncomfortable. My things were stolen and the staff doesn't do anything. They are not responsible for storage.
• Usman (1/5): Bad - Nothing. Rubbish service and management. Rubbish service and management.
• Judith (10/5): Amazing stay - Amazing hostel in a great area! The stuff was absolutely magnificent. Definitely one of my favorite hostels so far, coming back for sure!
