Guest Reviews

• Verified traveler (8/5): Cheap room, but okay. - It was okay.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Value for money - Nice place, good value for money.
• Verified traveler (10/5): very nice stay - very nice stay, friendly People, clean hotel
• Kannisa (8/5): โลกใบเดียวกัน - เป็นการบริการที่เอื้อเฟื้อต่อเพื่อนมนุษย์ค่ะ
• Verified traveler (8/5): gut zu errreichen - einfaches Hostel mit gemischten Zimmer, gut zu erreichen
• Verified traveler (6/5): - It’s soso~
• Verified traveler (8/5): Mit dem Bus gut zu erreichen - Für einen kurzen Aufenthalt gut geeignet, wenn man Hostels mag, ist alles kein Problem.
• Mintra (2/5): - The property was horrible. I reserved a room with a bed. An I arrived to a dormitory bed set up with men and woman in the same room. The safety and cleanliness are a major concern at this property. I asked for a refund and they laughed and refused any refund. Better to stay on the street then stay here. I left.
• Verified traveler (4/5): bad don't stay - don't stay here. the place is dirty, u didn't get any sheets on your bed (bed was super hard also) and towel, shower was cold and dirty, there was cats&dogs everywhere, some toilets didn't work and it's kinda far from the city centre. stay somewhere else!
• Verified traveler (6/5): - If you're looking for a group of quirky, eccentric people to hang out with, this is the spot for you!! If you're planning to do a bunch of tours, none will pickup from this hotel so budget in $5-10/tour to get to the city center. Also, the beds were horribly uncomfortable, like "sheets of dry wall on stilts", so unless you can sleep on anything, wouldn't recommend staying for more than a couple days.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Cute hostel - Cozy place in Bangkok!
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Liegt etwas außerhalb der touristischen Innenstadt, diese ist aber in wenigen Minuten mit dem Bus oder in einer halben Stunde zu Fuß zu erreichen. Für spontane jamsessions stehen Schlagzeug, sowie Bass und Gitarre bereit. Sehr freundliches und lustiges Personal, die Bar hat die ganze Nacht geöffnet. Toilettenpapier, Handtuch und Shampoo muss selbst mitgebracht werden.
• Taka (8/5): - 壁一面に描かれた絵がとても雰囲気が出ていて良かったです。 犬も可愛かった。 シャワールームの電気は付かなくてお湯も出なかったです。
• Raymond (8/5): another visit - All ok as usual
• Raymond (8/5): Overstay again - All good
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Decent
• William (8/5): You get what you pay for and more! - Overall good!
• Verified traveler (6/5): Quick cheap stay - Nice cheap place to stay
• Karla (8/5): Value for money - Friendly staff and rooms were ok for the price you pay.
• Guillaume (10/5): Super stay - Connected with music, it helped me to reconnected with it and with the people. I enjoyed every moment here with the staff and the client. You can express yourself trough arts freely and the hostel shows respect for animals; it is vegan. Don't judge a book by his cover, the hostel may look weird and trash with his grafity and his 100baht fee, but it is really a lot more than what i expected.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Get what you pay for
• Verified traveler (8/5): Low Budget Hotel für Backpacker - Günstiges Zimmer ohne großen Komfort, alles klappte gut, Checkin schnell.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - 仕事でチェックインできませんでした
• Verified traveler (10/5): - This place was great, a mix of younger travelers and also locals, the art work on the walls made for a unique experience
• Miguel (8/5): great personal, the place can be better - Personal is awesome, the place is so so.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Perfecte locatie, alles aan dit hotel is perfect. Voor de prijs vind je geen betere hotel/locatie
• Verified traveler (10/5): - It was good See you next time. Okay okay ......
• Graham (10/5): Bangkok Hostel - Good location and nice chilled atmosphere
• Verified traveler (6/5): 整體還可以 - 這個價錢, 已算ok, 不可能有太高要求
• Verified traveler (6/5): - 적당함
• Verified traveler (8/5): - ....................................................
• D'Bora (2/5): Dont stay overstay - Nothing on the posting was actually avaible,the place was dirty with animal feceson the inside. The gym or fitness area was really just a broken machine. The rooftop bar was no where to be found. And the shared kitchen was for vegaterian food only. The staff were rude and very unacommidating just didnt care. I would not recommed this place to anyone. And if you book and change your mind i would get a refund before tour leave as they will not keep their word and return the money afterwards.
• Eun cheul (6/5): - 나홀로 저렴한 여행이라면 ok.....................그러나 가족동반이라면 좀 곤란할듯.
• Michael (6/5): Basic - What do you expect for £2
• Verified traveler (10/5): Cute little place - Billig og greit. Livlig område. Herlige folk!
• Hocine (8/5): - bon sejours
• Verified traveler (8/5): Good experience - Good experience in the hostel!! Nice
• ther (10/5): Super Zeit gehabt, man muss aber der Typ dafür sei - Ich persönlich habe es im Overstay geliebt! Mir gefiel die Gestaltung ded Raumes und des Miteinanders total. Man kommt sehr leicht mit den Mitarbeitern und ihren Freunden unten in der Bar in Kontakt. Natürlich auch mit den anderen Bewohnern. In der Bar gibt es recht günstige Getränke (100bht / Cocktail/ Bier) und falls ihr da seid solltet ihr auf jeden Fall auch was essen, wirklich toll. Außerdem gibt es fast immer jemanden der Musik macht oder eine Wand anmalt. Warum Typsache? Die Einrichtung ist sehr einfach (Einzelzimmer: Futon+Ventilator) und manche Türen/ Schlösser schließen nicht richtig. Ich würde auf jeden Fall noch mal kommen.
• SANGHYUN (4/5): the overstay hostel - 숙소에 갔더니 오늘 영업안한다고 환불해줬음.. 영업안하면 예약을 안받아야하는게 정상아닌가?
• Zuzana (4/5): Jednu noc vic ne. - Az na postel z palet nepohodlnost a ne uplne uklizeno dobre. Misto nic moc. Pouze na prespani a pryc.
• Verified traveler (2/5): Terrible Stay - The place was unique with graffiti and stuff but it was too loud and too dirty. The toilets are disgusting and messy and the room that I have stayed in was awful. Broken window, poor lightening and broken door. I felt like it was a waste of time and money.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Wonderfully Eclectic - I only had 2 nights at The Overstay, but I wish it could have been longer. The staff were super friendly and treated you like family. The place itself was amazing, absolutely covered in art and murals. Everywhere you looked there was something new to take in. It's not fancy in any sense but is down to earth and relaxing. It's not for everyone, but if you want to share a few nights in a great atmosphere with some amazing people I highly recommend it. :) Can't wait to come back next time I'm in Bangkok!
• vic and alex (2/5): Orribile posto! - Pipi di gatto (o forse umana) nel corridoio, mai pulita! Eravamo all'ultimo piano, nel bagno quasi niente luce e niente cartaigienica! Il materasso del letto era inesistente! Dormire per terra sarebbe stato uguale! Tanta puzza in tutto l'ostello!
• René (8/5): it is really overstay - Petit hotel perdu dans le temps et le grand Bangkok. Attire par le prix, vous y decouvrirez une multitude de Backpacker venus de tous horizons. Une fois a l'interieur vous aurez l'impression de vous retrouver dans la grande vague hippie des annes 70. Deco sympa. Pour la literie prenez votre sac de couchage. Station de bus a proximite.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Not bad - The place does its job. Nothing fancy but decent enough. You can get what you need in the area. I slept well, but Im not too picky though. Met some great fellow travellers as well.
• James (10/5): Home away from home at the Overstay - The Overstay is a hostel, art space, and venue, a beautiful hotbed of community and good times. We had a spacious room large enough for a dance party, with great natural light, a stereo, and AC. We saw a few shows and cooked many meals at the Overstay. We felt truly at home in this space. It was always such a joy just poring over the art on every wall, reading some books from the free pile, or just chatting with the numerous other guests in the bar conveniently located downstairs. The hostel was close to many bus lines making it easy to get anywhere, as well as a supermarket, a few malls, and many street stalls. We miss you all at the Overstay already. -Pangea
• Stéphanie (6/5): Personnel accueillant! Chambre sommaire! Bon prix - Personnel accueillant ! Chambre sommaire ! Bon prix
• wou (10/5): - Nous avons passez d'excellents moments dans cet hôtel ! Une très belle expérience de vie,très atypique on adore et recommande !
• Crockett (8/5): Nice enough place the location not so much - The place was good but the area was lacking. Good music
• winnie (4/5): 設備不足 - 我住的是旅館單人房，房內除了一張床，就只有一把風扇。房間裏隔音效果不好，每晚半夜睡著都給隔壁的說話聲吵醒！房內和四樓公用浴室沒有鎖。沖涼不提供熱水，洗了幾晚冷水澡！旅館人員有禮貌。
• Ricky no-sleep (2/5): To party or not to party? - If you don't want to sleep, ever, then this hostel is for you. However if you are a human being like myself and value an hour of sleep very now and then then don't stay at is hostel. Loud music and people whaling talentless nonsense till 7am is a daily occurrence. This is not the fault of he hostel staff but should be considered THE STAFF ARE ALL LOVELY, WELCOMING AND VERY COOL, but the decibel level was very inconsiderate.
• Danny (10/5): Now I understand the name - Such a great find. Staff will always be there to explain how to get around the city. Places to go out are not too far away - a little more than £1 in a taxi. Great lobby area for socialising - with free pool! It's called the overstay for a reason: I was only meant to stay 2 nights. Ended up staying 9!
• CAM (10/5): probably the best place i have ever stayed - everything about this place is great. the staff. the people just everythingthing really. a great music venue aswell. i was only supposed to stay 3 nights and 3 weeks later i finally checked out
• Verified traveler (4/5): Loud!! - Stayed for 2 days. Staff were all lovely but place is a party house. You will not get any sleep here!!
• Benjamin (6/5): - its quit cheap, but when you invest a bit more you can get a lot more quality.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Nice staff, but not very clean.
• EM (6/5): Nice Location - Its OK Hotel , The cheapest accommodation in BKK. The staff were very friendly and helpful
• Verified traveler (6/5): Bag pack hotel - budget hotel can safe your pocket money. You can travel to many place in Bangkok easy.
• Verified traveler (6/5): basic hostel - just a place to sleep - basic hostel
• Verified traveler (2/5): Went in expecting nothing, was still dissapointed - Where to start, I arrive and meet a hostel worker in some alley where he takes me to the hostel. He points me to the room and I have to change the sheets and clean it myself, and still had paint and body fluids on the walls and floor. Trash was literally everywhere in the room and balcony. Shared bathroom, but door was broken. Internet was only available for about 2 hours out of the day then it would disconnect and give problems. The wall to the hallway did not go to the ceiling, so you could hear everything from people moving in the room over, to walking, to everything. The door was a piece of plywood, which was so rotted the lock was mostly for show and could be opened with a slight tap. Speaking of the hostel workers, they were always stoned and drunk out of their mind at the counter, making it hard to communicate with them since they were so incoherent. I know it's an art hostel, but come on, I have been homeless and stayed in nicer places then this.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Ok place for a great price - The overstay histel ia a friendly place, abd a good price for what you get. Tgw people are friendly, and there's free wifi which is great.
• Laura (2/5): The worst hostel ever seen - I really don't know from where I have to start. The room was not a room. No windows, door not possible to close, two mattresses on the floor. Smell of cats . it was the right hostel for junky people. It was a squat. Even if we have already paid we went away and we looked for something else. The receptionist asked us "what is wrong with the room?" I answered "everything". I think that she couldn't justify those condition only saying that it is the cheapest one. I am a human and I never saw something like overstay hostel. Please don't go there.
• Paula (8/5): Ok for the price - For 4 dollars a night would not expect more.
• maria (10/5): Great times! - Got to meet some great people and had a fun time! Went back on my last nights in Thailand as well to hangout!
• Mark (6/5): A Stay at Overstay - Hotel was OK, and great low price. Good for quick stay, for a refreshing nights sleep.
• jonathan mc tan (2/5): horrible - Hotel is too dark. The hotel doesn't look like the profile picture so colorful. The building is too old. There are many cats inside that and too dirty. The whole build have to be rebuild and redecorated. Room's light is not working and the outside public washroom's door cannot be locked. There many room don't have window which can see outside. The bed is not good and not clean.
• Leanne (10/5): Just what we needed - Just what we needed. It's as it says on the tin, don't expect too much but if you want a convenient place to stay for an unbelievably cheap price then it's perfect!
• Verified traveler (6/5): Cheaper than some left luggagr facilities - The taxis rip me off for more than the price of a night's stay here. What's more to say? Friendly people, and a place to stay that's cheaper than some left luggage facilities.
• Verified traveler (6/5): You get what you pay for, so don't complain. - So, you know what they say about getting what you pay for. Well you barely pay anything to stay here so really, there's nothing to complain about. It's an experience in itself.
• Andrew (2/5): Gross - Not nice far from everything stinky and dirty and hot
• ole alexander (2/5): not good. - Smelled cat urine everywhere. Slept on a fifty mattress. Preferred to shower with flip flops on. Lot of fungus everywhere.
• disgusting (2/5): disgusting - This is a very dirty hotel, truth and never return or recommend
• Manish (10/5): Perfect - Perfect stay
• Verified traveler (10/5): Q - If you are looking for a comfortable quiet relaxing hotel this ain't the place On the other hand if you want something super cheap run by cool artistic people this is the only place to stay in town. You can jamwith the hosts, paint and drink till the morning for the price of a curry.
• Missccockin (6/5): Good location for a short walk to kho San - Hostel is nice and friendly. Good for a party. Is a good 30 min walk from kho San.
