Double bed room was okay, the sink of the shower smelled a little bit. But the value for money was really good and the location really great (on khao san road but a bit in the back...so you cant hear the music and the business of the street very loud.

The room we stayed in was dirty with cobwebs hanging from the ceiling. It was quite dusty as well. The reception was not friendly at all ... he spent the evening on the computer watching YouTube videos and playing loud music. The wifi doesn't work in all areas of the hostel. Another traveler told us there were bed bugs but I didn't personally see any. I'd avoid this place in the future.

Located right in the middle of the most touristy street in Bkk- Khao San. Good for some, bad for some (Btw, Khao San has a bad reputation among the locals for some reason). Hard to spot the hostel amidst all the stalls, took me a while!

People complaining about size of rooms and noise obviously aren't familiar with Bangkok and particulalry Khao San Road! Very clean rooms and bathrooms, room compact but I had a single room and all I needed was a bed, bedside table and small chair - its too hot to stay in a room anyway and for 300 Baht a night what do people expect? Wifi worked in my room and staff always helpful. I heard no noise from bars etc and Locations is EXCELLENT! Entrance wwasy to mss first time would be only downside

For some travellers this hostel may be ideal but for us it was not, room was very basic just a fan and bed but with the window open the music from the bars kept us up all night. As well the bathroom sink was clogged. Staff decent. I don't think we would stay again as we are not looking for the all night party scene.

Khaosan Rd is really noisy specially at night, but this hostel is so silent and relaxing in spite of located in center of the Rd. Also staff is very kind and friendly. Room is clean but hotter than outside.

Dear Charoendee, We had very exciting time while stay there. Even located in hectic and full of loud music, we never felt disturbed by that, since its "hide" hostel. Great job Charoendee!!!!

A pleasant enough hostel that was basic but clean. It is located right in the heart of Khao San road so right in the thick of it. We were there during Songkran and although it was noisy we were impressed at the reasonable time it quietened down so we slept well. If I can make one suggestion though it is do not arrive during Songkran as your bags will get wet and covered in clay :)

Just stayed there for one night, clean but little bit noisy place to stay because it's just next to Khao San Road.... Beds were huge and comfortable, wifi worked in lobby, not in rooms. Good for it's price...

Nice place in an excellent location. Right on Khao San and has a locking gate at night. 24 hour reception and free wireless. Free coffee/tea and toast in the morning. The building itself is nice. Has a nice feel to it.

Location is good. They have some really big bugs in there that fly around, but they might be everywhere! Staff was OK, but I don\'t recommend to book any tours or transfers from them. We went to Phuket with the bus that supposed to travel 14h, but it took 22 hours and service was really impolite on the bus!!! Still, for the backpackers it\'s perfect. Breakfast was poor. And bathroom smelt bad.

This hostel was very basic. The rooms were basically cememnt cells with a bed, although they were clean. There is no real common area making it so there is no social scene. Although the staff did help when needed, they seemed less than thrilled to help. The location is amazing, being right on KoSan Road. Also we came back to Bangkok after a few days and they let us store our bags and take a shower for 100 baht. Akthough a good bargain for the location I would not recommend.

One word I would NOT use to describe this hostel is 'boutique'. The corridor resembled a prison and the room was no bigger than a cell. Despite the mid-advertising - the rooms were clean, breakfast was ok, location was good. Night staff were not friendly - had to ring for 15mins at 6am for someone to answer (not quite 24hr desk) and then he was v grumpy about us leaving our bags til we could check in (which it turned out we could have done at 6am!) I'm not sure if I would say this was good value

Right smack bang in the middle of Koh Sahn Road this is a little gem tucked away from the noise of the main road. Very basic room and bathroom facilities but clean and comfortable. Who needs more than a fan and a shared toilet when backpacking anyway??? Basic breakfast, and after 2am rng the bell, but all in all a lovely stay

We had a three bed room with quite big beds. No air con but had a fan which helped with the heat. There only seemed to be about 4/5 of us sharing the bathroom on our floor which was good. One of our padlocks got jammed on our backpacks and the guy on reception was really nice and helped us for about an hour to get it off. Overall a really cheap and good hostel 30 seconds from Khao San Road although was a bit of a struggle to find, so write down the phone number and a local will help you out.
