YHA Bangkok Downtown Reviews

Not friendly staff. A bunch of garbage is kept in front of the bathroom. The corridor is very small, if someone walk down than the other one must wait till he/she pass by. No railing on the staircase. The door hinges seems need some oil to reduce the noise every time someone open and close the door. It is disturbing when you need a good sleep.

Second worst place I stayed at in 5 months. No fan, air con not working, no window, very noisy, sink in the middle of the stairs going up, no real chance to meet other travellers, because no real common room. Just awful and not even cheap for Thailand!

Really friendly staff. Great for a central location in Bangkok to travel on train or bus to other locations.

excellent location in Silom. Toilets are very small and there is not enough space for socializing.

hostel very closed with BTS Trains station.. just 1 min walk to Chong Nongsi and 5 min walk to Sala Daeng.

The place was pretty good. The staff was friendly and helpful (the lady is hilarious). The bathrooms were a bit tricky because they were so small. Overall, it was alright. There's an outlet at each bed in the dorm which was a major plus. Location was good beause it is right at a train stop but it's still a long way to down town. Not sure what my raiting came out to be but I'd put it in the mid 80's

In over 40 hostels visited around the world, some of the best staff I've stayed with; just very friendly and easy-going people who make you feel great after every conversation. The hostel is very secure, out of the touristy area to some extent, but close to attractions and metro (much better than Kansan). Overall, great stay.

Lots of cockroaches living around the bathrooms on the second floor! It's ok, but a bit out of the way

The location is great. Lots to do on Silom rd. metro and sky train right outside the door. However beds are really old and the sheet is super dingy. Breakfast consists of cookies and fruit punch. No common area to hang out in. But the AC works and the shower is hot.

very friendly and helpful staffs, great location next to the metro station

The staff was the one bright spot about this hostel. They were very nice and helpful, but I wish the facilities matched their helpfulness. I found the room to be highly overpriced and overall facilities lacking. The bathroom and shower were barely adequate for the number of guests they served and dirty enough that my girlfriend declined to use them. The room itself was small and poorly laid out with an opaque window as a common wall with the next room. I was disappointed with the room.

Good location. Easy to get around. Bathrooms weren't very clean. Free breakfast is really sweet. Staff very friendly. Free wifi!

One of the cheapest hostels on this side of the city, but that's not saying much. Rooms are basic, the whole place is a bit cramped. At least the shower was pretty good. Arrived at 4am, but reception opens 8.30 so watch out cos the doors will be locked. The staff were friendly, in a Thai way.

Friendly staff, located in thd business area so not party town. Not the best for meeting others but if you want a clean bed, great owner and good lockers then this is fine.

The toilet and the shower - one of each for the entire floor - had broken, rickety inwards folding doors that you had to jam closed. shower was appalling. No light - tiny dark space with only one small hook. There was a huge frosted glass panel on one wall of our room next to the bed in the next room so we could clearly see the silhouette of a girl in bed. The AC is mounted in the middle of two rooms and a large hole cut around the middle wall. We could hear EVERYTHING from the next room.

The hostel is in need of a lick of paint and some tlc. The rooms weren't that clean and the shower tray filled up with water. But its a good location with a great street food market round the corner. Best thing about the hostel is the guy who works on reception - he's a delight!

Pretty nice place if you are planning to only stay a couple of days. Bathrooms were really small and they didn't really smell as clean. The staff is helpful. If you have any questions on how to get somewhere they are more than happy to help you.

It has an exellent situation 5 minutes walk from Silom, and right next to a sky train station. The staff was really nice and helpful. It is a budjet hostel , so dont expect anything luxuruious, it is a normal place where you can sleep for a few days.

The staff I met is very friendly and kindly gives me free breakfast when I'm about to check out. The bathroom is a little bit small and dirty though, and the hostel entrance is somehow tricky that I spend considerable amount of time to search for it at night.

Was good place to stay.
