                  Great backpacker hostel”

                  Location, friendly owner, and cute interior design!

                  This hostel is great in Bangkok, I've stayed at it before and I came back because I liked it so much. It has a homey feel because of the way it is decorated with a great common room space! The dorms are a little tight for room, but it is manageable if you are in one of the rooms that has more beds. Nice and close to khao San but not directly in the khaos (ha ha). Great value. Will be back!

                  Nice!”

                  Overall, it was nice! Pros- -Location is done a really cool area, not so far from Khao San road. -Comfortable beds. The room gets pretty cold at night, they give you a blanket. -Pretty good size common area. -Little "cafe" in the lobby. -Free breakfast. -Kept the bathrooms clean. -They have small/medium lockers you can use, just bring your own lock. (They don't sale or rent locks at the hostel, but they should... Little extra cash in their pockets.) -Draw curtains on the bunk beds, so you get a little privacy. -You can rent a towel, it's a nice, big one. -Decent wifi. Cons- -I guess the owner, just seemed over it the whole time. He was helpful enough, but I didn't feel all that welcomed. Especially since I didn't speak French, and everyone who did was immediately moved to top priority. -They turn the AC off during the day, so even in the common area with fans, it gets hot. (But you should be out exploring the city, anyways. Lol)

                  Had a great time in this Hostel. Really awesome. Met a lot of cool people and the receptionist is very friendly, her name is Jonah from PH. She's awesome, she even showed us where to eat nice fried rice and we hung out with the other guys. The hostel is very neat and clean too.

                  location, friendly staff, warm

                  great. not far from Kaosan, and very comfort. bed and room are clean, bathroom is not bad, too. they gave a female only room even I booked a mix dorm... but why the man staff entered the female room freely? and I got up very early because room was little hot. guest could'nt use a air conditioner freely. Where is a remote? but I like this hostel generally, I want to use again when Im in Bangkok. 존나더움

                  Cheap and cheerful”

                  The ice cream is lovely! Unlimited tea and coffee and very sociable (and comfy bean bags)

                  Our stay was lovely, the staff were friendly and helpful. We arrived early for check in but we're still allowed to access the tea and coffee facilities and even allowed to nap on the giant bean bags before our room was ready. We swapped rooms after our first night as the room we were in was booked, meaning we had to check out and leave our bags in the luggage room and check back in later. This wasn't too much of a problem and our bags seemed safe. We stayed in an all female dorm room, and met 3 lovely girls. Everyone was very sociable and ranged from late teens to 30ish. Not too close to Khoa San road but close enough (10 min walk). We would definitely stay here again! (TIP: Stay away from the "tourist information centre")

                  Staff were very friendly and ready for a chat. It's brand new and well decorated, and kept clean ! A/C throughout is the norm, and kept on all day!

                  It was great. Very friendly staff that was ready to help and get out of their way to make my stay comfortable. The owners have a good taste in music and it keeps playing throughout the day. There's free access to computers in the common area. IT's also great being able to hang out with friends in beanbags watching one of the thousands of DVD's you can chose from ! Nearby restaurants are a plus! 10 minute walk to KSR- safe at night ! Thanks

                  Claims they do not work with Agoda anymore”

                  The man who greeted me when I came in (presumably the owner) was smoking (which is a turnoff, especially when their theme is health & wellness) and he said he didn't have my reservation because he doesn't work with Agoda anymore. He kind of treated me like it was my fault, even though it's an issue that he and Agoda need to work out. Ultimately, he did honor the reservation but swore to never do it again. Photos make it seem like it's bigger, brighter, and more open than it actually is. Rooms are small; bathroom is essentially a nook with 2 toilet stalls, 2 shower stalls (which are basically just cement cells), and one sink, and you have to move out into the hallway if others need to get to one of them, and even if you book a "female only room", you may still have to share the bathroom area with guys. Ceilings in common areas are low, so watch your head if you're over 5'5". Air conditioning in rooms is a nice reprieve from heat. Glad it was cheap & I only stayed 1 night.

                  The worst reception i've ever met”

                  We've booked the standard family room for a day with Agoda. The room was quite nice and clean. But it was on the fifth floor so we nearly died moving our belongings. The worst thing was the Sri Langkan receptionist. After staying one night, we wanted to stay 3 more days and they said we can so we all paid. But when we got there to stay the days, the Sri Langkan man said that we can't stay at the family room. Not a day. He offered us a dormitory. The worst thing he said was "you can have free ice cream instead of the family room." That was the most ridiculous offer i've ever got. When we asked him to give the extra money back, he was upset about that with an absurd reason. He just said it is a problem of systems, not his fault. If u wanna stay there, it will be alright if u don't make any word with this rude Sri Langkan man.
