    If I could give no star I would. Avoid this hostel at all costs. Layout is terrible and there seems to be no cleaning regime. My group and I were given a top floor private room (4th floor). The male showers are on the bottom floor next to the reception, not good at all - there is no mention of this on the descriptions on hotel/hostels websites. The only useable male toilet was also on the bottom floor which didn’t seem to have been cleaned in the past few weeks. My group and I decided to check out after only being in then hostel for an hour or so. We explained our thoughts to the hostel staff and asked if we could be issued a refund. The staff didn’t want to know and stated no sort of refund could be given. When we finally checked out the staff should no sympathy and looked happy that they had made their money after providing a very bad service.

    It's a fine hostel but that's it. Bunk beds have plugs next to them and rooms have air con although it gets turned off between 12 - 5 pm. Bathrooms are moped regularly but I'm not sure how clean they actually are. Everywhere seems a bit dirty and breakfast was not provided like it states in the description. Not a very sociable hostel either, however it is a good location. Wouldn't stay here again.

    I was here four years ago, during this time it has only gotten worse: 1. the air conditioner works all night, it is very cold in the room and it is quite unpleasant to sleep, especially if the bed is directly under the air conditioner, water also drips from the air conditioner into a bucket, the drops fall directly on the bed. 2. the room and the showers are very dirty, no one has been cleaned there for at least a couple of years. I do not advise this hostel to anyone, it is too bad, even in India there was no hostel dirtier than this.

    We were in early August for two nights at 3Howww's (Khaosan). Had chosen the hostel because my friend had already been there twice. This time it was just bad and unclean. The first night we discovered bed bugs, which of course was not nice, but still bearable. However, the second night topped everything. We had a mouse in the room that crapped everywhere in our bags and on the nightstand. Not only unclean but also hazardous to our health. If that were not enough, the possibilities to sit together comfortably are no longer there, but only uncomfortable high chairs and stools. That also does not invite you to linger. All in all, for me the first and the last time I stayed there.

    STAFF LOOKING TO SCAM YOU! We had a flight booked for 5am, the staff insured us after checking 3 times they would get up so we could check out early instead of checking out the day before like we wanted. We waited for 30 minutes for someone to appear before giving up, making us run late for our flight and losing out on a 600baht deposit. (It should have only been 300 in the first place having checked hostel world conditions). The staff then said they were waiting for us when we emailed and said there is no way to return the money other than in person. Refused to give me the owners details and then ghosted all my emails. Don't stay here, it was filthy poorly layed out anyway. Would rate 0 stars if I could. Hope this reaches the owner and they can be made aware of what their staff are hiding from them.

    I was here few months ago, the bedsheet are dirty and have stain on it. And also At girls room the old lady is like the boss you cant do a little noise even just fixing your stuff she will come and tell you to keep quiet. its like you are not comfortable of doing your own thing. even a very little noise you can't. Cause In the all girls dorm she's like living there for a long time. Maybe just suggesting don't come or go in the girls room better in mix dorm you can do your thing like you can do freeely but not to bothered any one, just you can make a little talk with other people just not so loud but still you can, not in girlsdorm, like I'm just asking the other girl for something importantant with a little tiny voice but still she come near as or she told us go outside and talk there, it's not like we talking we just talk like 2seconds haha. So worst. I will not going back anymore. And No breakfast serve just Coffee you can make your own.

    Very cheap but very good place for your stay. Especially i recommend for the people who want to sleep just a few days and want to save money. They have shared kitchen and also washing machine.

    Absolute worst hostel I have ever been. Dirty, rude personel, no running water in our room, and best of all a rat in the room that ate our chips. Should be closed, total health hazard and scam.

    Scam hostel the policy of the business owner is not to invest in the improvement of the hotel at all, but to extract money from the tourist by all means. booking without payment is not possible - but the money is not returned, brazenly smiling in your face ... That’s a shower room

  • 2/5 Roman I. 10 months ago on Google
    absolutely not worth the money, there are no curtains in the room, the toilets are constantly dirty, and the staff does not return the money back when I decided to leave 3 days earlier, given that half of the hotel is empty, they took my money with the reason that I made a booking for this date))) in general, scammers

    Pros: Breakfast is freshly brewed coffee, tea, juices, milk, cereal, bread, and spreads, all free. Nice atmosphere overall. People seemed to meet new friends here. Small library in the lounge. Staff polite. Well located. Good for budget travelers. Cons: We stayed in a private room on the 5th floor. There was no bathroom en suite, so you had to walk down two flights of stairs for that. Bathrooms not very private upstairs, as you had the tops open. Shower would be extremely hot or cold. No temperature regulation at all. No soap in the upstairs bathrooms.

    My god it was a nightmare. I checked in and then checked out in 15 minutes after seeing the room. In a tiny room on the 4th floor were packed two bunk beds, there was no place to stand. You had to jump in the bed after entering the room. My bed was the upper one, the ladder was broken and dangling. I took my money back and ran away. DONT STAY HERE.

    Ok ok hostel. Not a great place to stay. Nearby this hostel there are many good hostels to stay.

  • 4/5 Paula P. 1 year ago on Google
    Rooms are clean and silent with air conditioning and fan. Sheets and pillow are clean and good smell. They provide sheets and blanket but not towel (you can rent it in reception). Showers for women and men are in different floors and toilets are shared. Showers and toilets are clean, not smelly and they have the basics such as shampoo/gel, toilet paper and even hair dryer. There's hot/cold drinking water, fridge and microwave. I would recommend this place.

    No curtain on the bed = No privacy Disgusting wall = Unsanitary I have no idea why they don't have a curtain on the bed

  • 5/5 Nadir S. 1 year ago on Google
    The hostel is well located, a few minutes from Khaosan Road. It’s quite cheap, it offers a nice lounge area. The beds are quite comfortable and big and clean. The toilets are fairly clean. I would recommend this hostel.

  • 1/5 Serkhio K. 3 months ago on Google New
    They have bed bugs be careful. This place looks like a refugee camp with sketchy ppl since it's the cheapest place around.

  • 5/5 Robert S. 5 years ago on Google
    We spent 6 nights in this great little hostel in Bangkok. It is clean and the staff are friendly, with a lovely breakfast to get the day started! It's close to most attractions in Bangkok, but in a quiet enough area, which ensures that you are not bothered by main road traffic. We'll definitely be visiting them again and would recommend them to anyone spending a few nights in Bangkok!

  • 4/5 luca c. 1 year ago on Google
    Good hostel close to the main walking street, friendly reception.

  • 5/5 sonya 1 year ago on Google
    A good basic hostel for a cheap price. Friendly people, great street food nearby, great location.

  • 4/5 Dark E. 1 year ago on Google
    Its not on the main road and the service guy is not that nice but the people who come are good and frankly speaking you will have good time

  • 1/5 Nicole M. 2 years ago on Google
    We were given a different room than the one booked (private room with shared bathroom). The given room had a bathroom with a window that didn’t close and the bathroom didn’t have a door. Therefore, the room was filled with mosquitos. In addition the air conditioning did not work and the shower didn’t either. I asked for the original room that I had booked (with a few weeks in advance) but they said it had already been booked. The hostel is nothing like the pictures. It was a very bad experience. I left within 15 minutes.

  • 4/5 Kaylin B. 5 years ago on Google
    Better then the other hostels in the area by far. Cheaper, more chill, staff are super nice and delicious free breakfast served every morning. Only downside is that some beds are squeaky and air con is shut off during the day from 12-5pm.

  • 4/5 Atul R. 4 years ago on Google
    Pros : - quite, super clean, 24 hour reception - really nice breakfast, 24 hours tea and coffee - ground and first floor is a common area. You get to use computers - safe Cons : - expensive - very few tourists, there were only 2 people in my room when I went - dorm room is on 4th floor and bathroom (for males) is on the ground floor - no socialization

  • 3/5 carlos l. 6 years ago on Google
    Nice hostel in a cool relaxed area close to kaosan, great local food options. 270 baht x night with a standard breakfast. Nice table to work, but man... they have the water pump set next to the table in the common area... seriously, the noise is no joke!!

  • 1/5 8ummumbonum 3 years ago on Google
    The staffs are very nice but the manager is extremely rude to customers.

  • 4/5 Happy F. 5 years ago on Google
    This place is the best in the area, no wonder they're always fully-booked. 1) clean lobby, sheets, rooms, and restrooms 2) heater at the shower is perfectly working 3) affordable 4) quiet lobby and rooms 5) English speaking, friendly and accommodating staff 6) locker is provided with lock and key 7) buffet-like breakfast at the lobby from 7AM to 10AM 8) you can request your stay to be extended at the reception if the online booking platform doesn't allow it though I have to transfer rooms for this

  • 5/5 SUNANDA K. 4 years ago on Google
    Foxy beds, friendly and helpful people, very clean and hygienic. Located at Khaosan street, you will get a lots of food options on the road. And bus stand is also nearby.

  • 4/5 Sophie Z. 6 years ago on Google
    We've ended up staying in this hostel a few times now due to being back and forth to Bangkok. Staff friendly and helpful. Good location to Khao San about a 5 minute walk. We stayed in the 10 bed dorm which has always been quiet and clean when we have stayed. Breakfast good. Bathrooms generally clean - if they're not clean it purely because of the other guests as there is always staff around cleaning. Would definitely recommend.

  • 3/5 RocknRollazzZ 3 years ago on Google
    Decent but lots of flaws, changed to another hostel. +are is nice +free breakfast +decent wifi +clean showers and toilets - had to walk 4 stories to get to the showers - at night too loud - breakfast simple but only one toaster for all the people - not worth the price, i was in a private dorm
