  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The beds weren’t the most comfortable but the pillows and bedding were great.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Cute, clean, efficient, comfortable, in a convenient location, but without any noise. Honestly, hard to ask for more when on a tight budget

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The hostel is located within easy walking distance of many places, the room was super comfortable and spotlessly clean. Towels were provided as we had a private bathroom ensuite. I would definitely stay again.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Very tiny room with no window

  • Engine customer May 2026

    I liked the value and location. There wasn't much of an atmosphere when I was there. But for me by myself having a private clean room for that price was great.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Not much space to put your stuff around the bed. There is a tiny square in the wall but they put a fan in it so impossible to leave anything else. Would be nice to have just a long shelf along the bed to put some stuff. The blanket is not duvet-style sheet. It’s a wool-type, that I always find less hygienic despite them being cleaned.

    During Songkran the streets were full and the taxi couldn't get to the hostel. Great for partying but had to walk the last part of the journey.

    Someone did NOT understand nor had COMMON SENSE about quiet hours in my dorm, I was woken up after just 2 hours of sleep (✈️early morning landing) by someone who just decided they would go on a call wishing someone obnoxiously loud "happy birthday" at 7am.

    Perfectly located, even from the airport if you take the bus S1, it will leave you only two blocks away from the hostel. I stayed in the mix dorm and female dorm. The mix was more spacious and had a window, whereas the female dorm of 4 beds was quite small, but the beds were great. With your own lamp, locker and plug.

    Super clean and nice property. Very peaceful. 10 min walk from Khao San rd. Has a kitchen and fridge with free coffee and popsicles. Lovely balcony overlooking the canal, which is very nice. Space is small though. Staff is very friendly. Bed aren’t bad but I have had comfier. The bad was I couldn’t get any hot water for shower sadly. Doors are also heavy and noisy here. So I might have had bad luck but I have never had so many people come in and out of a room here. I kid you not. I came from another hostel here downtown so it’s not the location. But between 10 and 11 I had people come in and out of the room every 2 min. 30 times in an hour… i started counting. And then a few times every hour through out the night. It was excessive. But it doesn’t help that the doors slam a bit here so it’s just loud constantly.

    Location. Owner put a lot of thought into the details. Very honest & sweet staff, including the cleaning staff. Offers women’s 4 bed dorm ( it’s tiny but pod like beds are comfortable, sheets are 5 star hotel quality crisp & clean. ); a mixed dorm and then single & dbl rooms with one family room on top floor. Two little terraces overlooking canal. Loved staying here.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    It's clean, spacious, cozy n staffs are very friendly. I have stayed there for so many days. Worth the money. It's just beside the canal & walking distance from Khao San road. Perfect location.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Location of hotel was the best thing about it. Small room but for the price it has everything you need.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    We stayed in a private room with an ensuite bathroom and it was so cozy and clean! The hostel features a very well-maintained kitchen with filtered water available, which was a huge plus. We loved the balcony for sitting and enjoying the canal views. I also can't forget to mention the staff - they were incredibly nice and welcoming.

    Great location, not far from Khaosan Road but very quiet, with many Thai restaurants nearby. Friendly staff, clean rooms and beds.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Staff super friendly and helpful. The room is small but we knew.
