Comfortable beds, good value for money.

Clean, comfortable hostel. Location is by the river... a new experience to travel by riverboat to get to a BTS station. Nice views at night on the verandah facing the river. However, beware this is also the only spot the smokers will gather. Although breakfast is supposedly provided (milk + cereals), don't bother - milk isn't replenished, so there isn't much to expect. You're better of getting street foods located near the 7-11. Staff are a little clueless and unhelpful, although earnest. There's no staff at the reception at night, so don't expect any help given. If locked out of the rooms, good luck to you.

Value for money, but has its limitations

This hostel was good value, very clean and spacious. However, there are some rooms for improvement - there is no staff at night to man the reception. In fact, no staff on the premises at all, so if you need help... good luck! I was locked out of my room and had to bunk in with someone in another room because I left my key in my room. No staff available to help me. Milk and cereals provided for breakfast, but the milk was never topped up, so by Day 2, they had run out. Again.. staff needs to check on matters like these. When I asked the staff for directions and suggestions, they were quite clueless. All in all, this is a good value hostel, nice views facing the river. However, if you do decide to stay here, don't expect much help from the staff. The place is kept very clean though. Aircon is switched off from 10-3pm in the afternoon.

Clean, Comfortable hostel w slight inconveniences

Location is right by the river. If you're not in a hurry and like a chilled out environment, this is a great hostel. Very clean, modern amenities. Nice views along the river. However, there's no staff on the premises.. I was accidentally locked out of my room in the middle of the night, and couldn't get back in the room. Luckily someone from another room let me sleep in her room which had a spare bunk bed. Staff at the reception, while friendly are also not particularly knowledgeable about local transportation, if it means going off the beaten path. Cereals and milk provided in the morning, but the same bottle of milk ran out by the 2nd day and the staff did not top it up. It's a relaxed environment, but the staff aren't particularly on the ball about service.

Hidden gem

Great hotel away from all the chaos of China Town, but near enough. Very close to the pier where you can take a boat around Bangkok. Facilities are very good and the hotel is very clean. Also, there is an amazing view of the river from the restaurant here.

T best hostel you’ll see in a long time

I genuinely could not praise this hostel high enough. We booked to stay here for two nights, but we wish we had stayed in Bangkok longer, just so we could stay here! The staff are so helpful, the facilities are perfect- there’s everything you’ll need and the overall cleanliness is nothing like we have seen in a hostel before. This is by far the best place we have stayed and would highly recommend to anyone!

カオサン通りからも10分ほどで着き、外観の内観もとても綺麗です。 どのスタッフさんも笑顔で親切なので安心です。 急遽部屋の変更を頼んだのですが、より安い方法を教えてくれて助かりました。 屋上にはバーがあり、とても雰囲気がいいです。 部屋の中も綺麗です。落ち着いて過ごせます。

中華街の安宿

最初は快適だったのに、後から行儀の悪い旅行者達が次から次へと宿泊するようになりどんどんホステルが汚れて行きました。 私の泊まった部屋は窓が無かったので、電気を付けても部屋が少し暗く感じました。 お昼頃から3時まで冷房を付けてもらえません。 朝食はシリアルだけです。 同じ宿泊料を払うなら、もっと良い所があります。 ただし、川に面したデッキは快適です。

最高のホステル!ただし大荷物には注意が必要

とても素晴らしいホステル。とにかくすべてがオシャレで洗練されていて快適に過ご せます。 チェックアウトは11:00、チェックインは14:00からでチェックイン前に荷物を預けることが可能。ただしホステルは3階でエレベーターはないため、大きな荷物は階段で運ぶ必要があります。 ホステルの周りは中華街の問屋街でぶらぶらするのも楽しいですが、ほとんどは卸です。 デッキから眺めるサンセットがとても綺麗です。電子レンジや冷蔵庫、キッチンも共用ですがあります。掃除が行き届いていてホステル初心者にもおすすめ。
