FANTASTIC
Hostel.
10
stars!
UPDATE:
after
traveling
around
the
world
for
8
weeks
with
our
family
of
6,
this
hostel
-
the
first
one
we
stayed
in
on
our
journey
-
was
by
far
the
best.
Really
the
gold
standard.
Read
on
to
see
why...

UPDATE
A
little
difficult
to
find
because
it
is
in
an
alley
that
no
taxi
can
get
to.
But
that's
part
of
its
charm.
Very
old
Bangkok.
Surrounded
by
countless
shop
stalls
where
families
live
and
do
business
from,
selling
food
or
clothing
or
whatever.
Bangkok
is
a
city
of
merchants.
AMA
is
even
more
attractive
than
the
photos
tell.
It
is
very
clean.
Tastefully
and
beautifully
decorated.
Historic
yet
with
all
the
modern
conveniences
you
would
hope
for.
Magnetic
keycards
for
new
locks
in
sturdy
doors.
Robust
new
air
conditioning.
Tankless
water
heaters
in
the
modern
glass
showers
for
endless
hot
water.
Strong
WiFi.
Free
breakfast
w
strong
coffee.
Free
bottled
water
in
the
rooms.
Especially
helpful
staff.
24
hour
front
desk
personnel.
A
locked
sliding
glass
door
separates
the
lobby
from
the
living
quarters
so
nobody
should
be
in
the
living
area
who
doesn't
have
a
key.
It
is
very
quiet,
being
in
an
alley
next
to
a
leisurely
canal.
Mostly
locals.
Very
few
tourists.
Yet
easy
to
get
anywhere
by
hailing
a
cab
or
tuktuk.
Very
family
friendly.
Our
4
boys
were
in
their
own
room
(en
suite)
with
the
coolest
bunk
beds
we've
ever
seen.
Everybody
wanted
the
top
bunk
so
they
took
turns.
The
12
year
old
got
first
dibs
because
it
was
his
birthday
and
they
put
a
really
fancy
balloon
customized
with
his
name
in
the
room
waiting
for
us
when
we
checked
in.
They
also
sold
us
a
very
nice
chocolate
birthday
cake.
The
Mrs
&
I
had
our
own
room
(en
suite)
next
door,
so
we
felt
comfortable
being
so
close.
The
ceilings
are
quite
high,
like
15
feet
or
so.
We
had
a
small
balcony
where
we
could
hang
clothes
to
dry
and
where
others
smoked.
The
door
leading
to
the
balcony
locks
from
within.
We
really
loved
this
place.
Didn't
want
to
leave.
I
doubt
many
other
hostels
we
stay
in
this
summer
will
compare
favorably,
AMA
set
such
a
high
bar.
Bravo
AMA
on
creating
such
a
wonderful,
warm,
beautiful,
charming,
safe
place
for
travelers.
