Great location right off the Khaosan road. Common area was nice, as well as the rooms.

The property was in a little alleyway right in the middle of the main streets of KhaoSan Road, which was good if you really are into the party scene and wanted to stay up all night. It would not be good if you want to relax, as the hostel is right next to a night club that plays loud music all night long. Unfortunately, the room we stayed in also smelled of mold and upon arrival home my clothes also needed to be washed because of the smell. The room was dark so you could sleep any hour of the day, if that’s your thing.

The only downside to this hostel is that its directly over top a club, which plays music super loud all night. With the heat of the day this makes perfect sense. Id rather sleep through the afternoon anyway. Sad thing about that bar downstairs is that its playing to a mostly empty room.

Made reservation for 2 dorm beds with my girlfriend and I. We were given private room instead which was awesome. Can here music and loud party all night long until 4 am. We didn't mind but if you can't handle noise don't stay here.

Hostel encima de uma boate com um barulho horrivel, parece que até a cama treme. Pagamos por 3 diárias e ficamos só uma noite, perdemos o dinheiro e mudamos para um hotel.
Pra quem procura um lugar com a proposta de um hostel (interação entre os hospedes) tbm não indico o local. O local é mais um hotel com acomodações simples.
O banheiro é ruim, o chuveiro fica no meio e molha tudo.

Cet hotel est uniquement à destination des personnes voulant faire la fête!!!
En apparence, très correct et propre, mais on se rend compte ensuite qu'il est placé au dessus d'une discothèque ; donc ne pas essayer de dormir avant 3h du matin, car la musique fait vibrer les murs jusqu'à faire vibrer l'eau des toilettes!!!

나름 깔끔하고 자는데 문제 없고.
하지만 소음에 민감한 사람이라면 비추천.
바로 옆이 클럽이기 때문에 새벽 3시 전후나 되서야 잠잠햐진다. 방음이 안되는 편.

This is a budget place but for good value you get very decent accommodation in return. Lockers in rooms are plenty big enough for backpacking rucksacks.

방이매우 청결하며, 카오산로드 중심에있기때문에 이동에 장점이있다 , 에어컨도 매우 시원하고 사물함도 85리터 배낭도 들어감 하지만 딱하나 단점은 밤엔 시끄러움

Ett fräscht enkelt hostel. Bra läge och ett plus för två toaletter till sovsalen. Det enda minuset var att vi inte kunde låsa dörren till själva rummet.. Dock fanns det stora skåp där man kunde låsa in sina grejor. Jag skulle lätt kunna tänka mig att boka det här igen om jag var ute efter ett billigt och enkelt boende.

Je suis resté une nuit. L'hôtel est très propre malgré son faible coût. Il est exactement comme sur les photos.

전반적으로 깔끔하고 사용하기 좋았습니다. 카오산로드에서 가깝고, 밖이 시끄럽지만 방안에서는 괜찮았습니다. 직원들 친절하구요. 대부분 서양인 숙박객이 많았습니다.
