I stayed in 3 different hostels throughout Bangkok and by far this was the best choice and it had one of the lowest ratings. 1 working air conditioning that doesn't smell like mold. 2 clean properly stocked toilets. And 3 solid furniture which is not noisy or disturbing to others when you move around in the bed. 4 strong water pressure, you could bathe elephants.

Don’t stay here! I Arrived & waited for an hour at ‘reception’ for someone to turn up and help me check in. The staff who were there were rude, on their phones, or couldn’t speak English. Another guest had to try and translate to explain the issue (the staff member was on a long lunch & no one else wanted to / was able to help). The vibe was weird, the place doesn’t look anything like the photos, there’s sex workers staying there & it’s general not nice at all. Ended up leaving & checking into a different hostel, which I’ve never done before!!!

It's true that some rooms don't look like the pictures, because those are the rooms with windows. I happened to stay at a room without windows, but they were still pretty fine. I read comments saying they were super narrow. Unless you're an elephant, they're really not. ‎‎‎‎‎‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎ Each room has a toilet and each floor has an additional toilet on the corridor. The bunk buds are really sturdy and do not squeak. The rooms have 5 beds, but the several roommates I got during my 1-month stay were all pretty mindful of their noise levels and the beds were rarely occupied all at once anyway. It's a pretty quiet place overall. ‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎ There were some issues however. There was a bit of a moldy smell in the room, the AC dripped a fair amount and the pipes under the basin were leaky, so both the room and toilet often had puddles on the floor. For me these were bearable inconveniences, but we might have different levels of tolerance to suboptimal conditions. ‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎ At some point during my stay I was invited to move to a room with windows. I took a look inside and it seemed nicer indeed, but the curtains weren't blackout and I like it dark while sleeping. Besides, I feared that it would get too hot during the day from the sun. Probably a non-issue but I declined anyway. ‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎ The kitchen has a communal fridge w/ freezer, microwave, water boiler and cutlery. ‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎ The staff is usually absent from the reception and they don't speak much English, but that was fine for the most part, considering that they will quickly come down if you call the number at the reception, and that if you need help with something that they cannot understand, they will put you on the phone with this thai lady who speaks good English. ‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎ All in all, for 250 baht a night (approx. 7€) in this area, I think it's fair value. ‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎ However for people with disabilities, this is not the place to go to. The elevator is old-school and it only goes up and down if both manual doors are completely closed, which the other guests often forget to do, or do improperly. This means that more often than not, the elevator will not come. You'll be stuck with using the stairs, which do not have a handrail. There is also a small step when entering both the toilet and the shower. ‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎ Edit: I'm not sure why someone mentioned this in their comment, but yes there are ladyboys staying at the hostel. Whether they are sex workers or not is none of your business. Besides, from what I've been told, they have their own room because they're kind of long-term guests, so it shouldn't affect Your Prudishness anyway.

The Chubby female Thai manager when i was there was not exactly level minded and often did not know how to act in a situition and would act without correct thinking and make Very very Stupid Decisions not weighing the consequences of Her Actions , also there is a Omni-present Russian guy who has been there a while and stays in the kitchen a lot , best thing is to Avoid everybody and just stay out and enjoy the City center especially the woman manager who should not be behind a Hostel reception never and i Mean Never - nice location :)

Conveniently located near the MRT. Bright, clean, and modern environment. They had complimentary coffee and bread in the morning for some time. The communal area is chill - there is a room with bean bags and people are usually hangout out, even late at night. We stayed in a mixed dorm- pretty bare bones and a small room (and no curtains for privacy). The bathroom is clean and everything works properly, not to mention great shower pressure ! The neighborhood is pretty good - we had trouble finding good street food during the day (there are, however, malls with good food courts in the vicinity), but at night there are markets nearby. it's also in a red-light district, so expect to find a number of sex workers around. Note: I stayed for a total of 4 nights in April 2017

Don’t stay here! Absolutely horrible staff. A lot of “guests” who are not backpackers or travelers, they’re far from it. The girls come into the rooms and use the bathrooms and beds. Cleaning doesn’t change the sheets after they’ve been in the beds. It’s safe to assume they are sex workers, especially considering the neighborhood. The only thing in the area is big malls and restaurants. You have to go an hour away to see the real Bangkok.

Absolutely recommended. Nice area, very clean and has all the utilities you need.

Water front leaking all day and night I stay here many times but it’s seam like problem never been fixed it. They just gave us the bucket and towel that it. Noise from renovation start early at 8 am… only the location is 5 stars

Nice quiet clean clean bed good aircon overall nice stay

The location is very near by everything you need but the bedrooms are very full, and the beds are very close to another, you dont have privacy. I didnt like this.

Great and clean hostel, with a good location.

After 5 nights in khaosan, i moved to sukhumvit soi to pay homage to the great infamous Na Na, without reservation upon arrival i immediately click with like minded people (experienced disco ers, etc), checking to my room, air con is having a massisve water leakage, they fixed it in afternoon but there were still drips to corner of my bed:)))).....one of our roommate had the most unfortunate accident of hurting his ankle coming down from top bunk n most likely has to return home immediately.... Feeling tremendously at home, i unknowingly offended one of the local thai hosteller, the tension rose to feverish n i had to cut my stay one day short before original plan.... Quite a few people are there looking for partners:)))) All in all, i had a great memory, thank you！

Rooms are great, beds are super comfy staff members are hit or miss you see them around, it's next to a ladyboy bar but that's okay not very loud but quite entertaining, it's a great location centralized to everything you could need in between soy cowboy and Nana Plaza

Nice location, little bit small and there is not a common area to socialize well.

Very very good price is cheaper and room it's good /staff cute next time i come back for sure!

It was value for money and rooms were clean a bit small though but well worth the price

Worst hostel I ever stayed in!! No social life, employees don’t speaking English, nod hand soap in the bathroom. Pretty much everything is bad, totally not worth the price. Even checked out earlier than I had to

There is no common area anymore as advertised. The elevator is out of service and the staff doesn't speak english. The Hostel has not a good vibe and the two people (50+) in my dorm were very loud during the night. However it was clean and its close to the BTS Station and Terminal 21.

Pros: easy check in just walked in and gave them cash, close to the BTS right near NaNa, close to things to eat and do, beds comfortable, female only rooms, friendly staff, English speaking, cool elevator, bathroom in room, wifi included, Cons: I'm not sure how much daily cleaning and they do but our room was not the cleanest. I actually feel kind of yucky taking a shower because there was hair everywhere; sink, floor, toilet, shower, bed, etc

Friendly and chatty owner, small no-nonsense rooms, great chill out area downstairs with bean bags and internet. Great location near Asoke and Nana too. Cheap rates for the high quality place

The sheets on the beds was too short and when I went down the reception to ask if they had any longer or if we could get another I was told I could just turn off the AC or open a window. The staff was unhelpful and didn’t seem to care. The toilet/bathroom was poorly cleaned especially the floors near the urinals, plus we had to pay extra for a towel. We went elsewhere the next day. There are plenty of places cheaper and where the service is much better. Wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

It's a nice place inside and good for a short stay. The outside environment doesn't speak same of the inside though. So you may have to ignore it and get inside and enjoy it.

Stayed here for two nights and was a blast. It is between two train stations and is easily accessible, there are lots of food options within the area and close to Terminal 21 mall. There is an elevator, old school with manual doors and was agreat experience to try. Place is clean.
