Tiny rooms and loud location (on a busy street and just meters from the Skyway commuter train). The fourth floor of the hostel is currently undergoing renovation (as of February 2010) so there is a dusty an noisy mess on that floor during the day. The staff was all extremely warm and helpful. Great location just off of Silom Road.

This hostel is definitely budget, the rooms are tiny, the traffic noise is incredibly loud and the AC is only turned on at 10pm until 9am the same with the hot water.......I only reccomend staying here if you have no other option. It's definitely a let down compared to all other YHA hostels I have stayed in, which are generally excellent.   Read Owner Comments

The rooms and beds are small,location is perfect!can take both BTS and MTR,but is not good for vacations for the noise is very big.The dustbins are a little less and smaller than other hostels.The staff is great!very helpful,kind and smart! General speaking,if you just want to have a rough visit to Bangkok,it is a good choice!

Good location. Staff nice but not that helpful. Mozzies are a problem but not bad for the price. Urban age round the corner is much better

Choosing to stay here is the most impressive thing! I hailed a taxi from train station near by, but the driver tried to rip me off for 300 B. CRAZY! but I was lucky as the receptionist approached and helped fighting with the driver until the situation intensified and they almost punched each other! Finally, the police came, he parted and we're safe. THX u guys for your protecting guests like your own family members. u guyssss're so real and though u're small hostel, your heart's BIG man!

 kkarpunina2117 from Russia stayed here on 08th January 2010
My 1st choice was full, so I had the misfortune to book a bed in their "super-saver" dorm. It is absolutely awful - quite a cheek to charge 170baht for this. It's so stuffy you cant close the door at night. It's right next to the staircase - till 1-2am you get woken up by drunk fellow guests returning late, and at around 7am - by staff who don't bother to lower their voices. And they have BEDBUGS everywhere!!! Their 'biggest smiles' are sneers - laughing at your having booked with them!!!   Read Owner Comments
