    The pictures from agoda do not tell the truth. I checked in and was surprised that the room key deposit was 500baht, more than the price of the room! Walking into the bunk bed area, the level did not feel welcoming, and there were 'jail style' lockers by the side, and dimly lit walkways. It's porch area, seems derelict and dirty, and worse, the room (which had 4 beds), was extremely stuffy and had some 'old' smell to it. The bed was soft and very springy, while its amenities, damn the worse. I did not feel safe sleeping there and neither should you. Don't let the pictures deceive you. Book another hotel ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

    The AC is leaked all over the room. They will TURNED OFF the AC after 10 AM and turn it again after 7 PM!!!!! This is the most absurd thing. You paid for the hotel, and the AC was the only think i thought will be a useful facility they have. The toilet is sooo DIRTY. The drainage is full of hair. Smelly and clogged. The bed is ok, but the room when I reach hotel is dirty. And got small COCKROACHES inside!!! The breakfast was only steamed rice and sliced eggs. Imagine I stayed there for 5 freaking days!!!! The staffs are THE WORST. They are so racist. They only treat white people nicely. They aren't helpful at all even once. They go into your room without knock!! They pretend not heard me when I asked. They only sleep or play phone or watch things or even BBQ in front of the hotel's entrance. They said they will cleaning the room every 3 days, BUT PLEASE. NEVER. I will never ever ever step into that hotel again. The review is freaking 9/10. And I feel I got cheated!!!

    The best location to stay in bangkok. I love the location, itโ€™s precisely above IFI skincare. The most unknown skincare store in pratunam. And the hospitality of mrs. dang was soooo good.. sheโ€™s so kind.. and also the cleanliness of the property. Been to Thailand for 5 times and never stayed and one property, but trust me whenever I have chance to go back there Iโ€™ll stay at glur for sure! No doubt!!

    Doesn't exactly have a full time reception. Reception will leave his Thai number for you to dial if he's not at the desk. The PIC will often be waiting at the lobby to help check in, even till late night/early morning. Just knock on the door if you're arriving late. Entrance was a little run down, but the room itself was good. Booked a private room. Room was very spacious with a comfortable bed (soft type). There's some water smell when you enter the room, but you'll quickly get over it. Location is relatively convenient. Lots of food stalls/marks nearby

    A big no no to this hostel. Definitely need alot of improvement on managing their cleanliness. And a thorough maintenance need to be upkeep for a satisfied stay. I have tried many hostel in my past travels, this would be the worst one i ever encountered. The bathroom is very very very uncomfortable to use. Not recommended.

    we had a pleasant experience when staying here. They have a strategic location because it's really close to the bus stop, BTS, mall, Pratunam market and even this hotel is in the same building with Tofu Skincare. we got the price at 250k per night, its really worth it with a clean hotel room, bathtub, water heater (unfortunately the one in our room was broken), amities, and others. The elevator also works well. The receptionist is not always there, but she/he is a friendly person. You can do early check in here.

    Personally don't really like public restroom/bathroom. Shared facilities usually have cleanliness problems. The male restrooms here are quite clean, with little smelly. But my female friends are complaining about the cleanliness of female restrooms. I guess female is not as lucky as male. The internet is fast here. Im satisfied with the speed. Rooms and corridors are very narrow and barely have space to walk, since we had to put our thing in the cabinet, it is so troublesome to grab and keep things. The air conditioner here is scheduled. Turned on by 19:00 and off by 10:00. If you stay in the room outside of this time, expect to only have the ventilator that keeps you from sweating too much. Don't think you can turn on AC by your own remote control, they will come in your room without knocking the door, ignoring your existence, and turn it off. The breakfast they provided were hot coffee, milk, and fried rice. The milk was totally spoiled. Rice was a little bit dry but acceptable.

    Glur Central Pratunam is quite an interesting place: they took a building with several stories and turned it in an hostel with a modern/loft touch. We booked online for one night, in a dorm with 4 double beds. The room was small and had no window access. However it is really clean, fresh and well-optimized. The breakfast was included, and the common room where it's served is big and enjoyable. I was a little bit disappointed because they charged us (in THB) before check-in - no cancellation policy - which resulted in unnecessary fees on our side. I wish they could have waited the next day in case we didn't show up... To be honest, it's was perfect for what we needed (location, breakfast, price) but I wouldn't stay there for a long period of time.

    The lift at our last day was not work, and wifi at 4th floor didn't work.

    Comfortable bed, soft and wide. The free breakfast, Thai fried rice, is not bad. It seems to get 5 stars. Unfortunately, there're a lot of mosquitos in the bathroom. Perhaps, it's normal for a tropical country.

  • 2/5 Debora T. 5 months ago on Google
    The room was big, the location was quite good but the facilities were soooo bad. Lift was error so we should bring down and up our luggages by stair. The wifi didn't work at all from the first day we checked in but the reception was funny and very helpful made our day full of Happiness.

    The room was spacious, I think if the hotel allows you, you can fit 10 people inside.. Location and service was great. I just have problem with the creepy vibe this hotel gave

  • 5/5 Dessya P. 5 months ago on Google
    Honestly one of the best hotels Iโ€™ve ever been. Pโ€™Daeng (the receptionist/housekeeper/security) is VERY helpful, friendly, and speak enough English to communicate. The lift works properly, room is superb, hot water, ac, mini fridge, hair dryer, all work wonder! Bed is also comfy, the room smells like fresh lemongrass. Just very nice. Hotel is located nearby malls and street food. Will deffo stay here again. Thank you Pโ€™Daeng!

    The accommodation is comfortable and spacious, however the proximity to the main road is quite bothersome. The receptionist is not always available at the welcome desk. When they are not there, you need to contact them. The good things is that the nearest BTS station (Ratchathewi) is within walking distance.

    The hostel is very basic. Some rooms have no windows. The floorboards in the hallway were mostly broken/damaged by water. The bathrooms smell of sewer. Air-conditioning gets turned off throughout the day. The washing machine and dryer are very expensive to use, however you get to have a free wash if you show them that you've written a review on trip advisor. Otherwise the location is very good as it is close to malls and public transportation, WiFi is included as well as bag storage.

    Lots of mice in the kitchen (I saw them in the afternoon when there was nobody left, and we had already had breakfast there that morning ๐Ÿคข) We were upgraded from a mixed room to a private double room due to bed bugs, so I can't complain. Bathroom smells of mold really bad I dont think its a healthy level of humidity. Breakfast (photo) of rice and eggs and coffee is included in the price. Staff is nice, but when we told them we saw rats in the hotel they said housekeeping would take care of it next day.

  • 4/5 Curtis H. 6 years ago on Google
    Beds are comfy. Walls are too thin and quite hours not enforced. people smoke inside even though there are signs saying not to. great price. Bathrooms get dirty and smell. Staff are wonderful. Breakfast is disappointing and there are different breakfasts for private rooms!

    Very nice place to stay if you are looking for budget friendly, clean and safe place to stay in Bangkok. It is located at Pratunam, which has numerous Indian restaurants and vegetarian food available. It is at a walking distance from Pratunam market with humongous and delicious options for non-vegetarians especially the ones which are ready to experiment in eating. Walking distance from platinum fashion mall for shopping and eat streets.

    The worst hostel ever!! Staff very unfriendly. The toilet very dirty. The bedroom very small and hot. It has rats in the wall. Just an awful experience. Don't recommend!!

    I love these hostel because of capsule room, but if you are going to these hostel while a long weekend, there's a high chance that the capsule room has sold out. These hostel offers amazing features, even if you are not in capsule, you still get the best bed ever, feels comfy. Located near the embassy of republic of Indonesia, so if you are Indonesian just like me, it's easy to contact the government acquaintance, and so on. There are also Indonesian in this hostel

    Nice services. There are has one thing to be patient that is if you choose public dorms, you will be facing surely someone making snoring is too much nosing when you sleeping at there. So that's why I couldn't sleep well when I was there. Attention please!! There are has many mosquitoes and bedbugs. Even the air-conditioning is not quite a bit cold.

  • 1/5 Chang Ee L. 4 years ago on Google
    Extremely hot superior room located at the roof top of the building. Aircon is only allowed to set 22 Celsius or above or being warned that it will cut your power for an hour! There is no fans in the room too... How do you live a superior trip with such condition in Bangkok?

  • 5/5 Shannon H. 3 years ago on Google
    Good beds. Showers have free soap and shampoo. We stay in mixed dorm nice and private. Will come back
