Nice and cozy place. If you are into confortable seats. Those is your place. Very quiet and just besides the sky train. The only thing is the they limit you for 2 hrs internet. Is enough but its not ok that they limit it.

Place is nice overall and with good location but what got me was the fact that that they give only 1 hour of Wi-Fi with one drink. I've never seen anything like it. It doesn't feel very welcoming.

A small rooftop bar visible from the BTS platform in Thonglor. Now that I can drink beer, I went there for the first time in a while. You can drink Singha draft beer and craft beer here. Yesterday, when I ordered a drink, I was served a small glass of the same beer. These days, I like drinking pale ales and IPAs at bars. Yesterday I had Rogue outta line IPA and Fresh haze squeez IPA. The owner recommends the squeezez, which is definitely delicious.Even though the loop top is low, it feels good. It's also nice to have a drink while seeing off the train.The first floor is the entrance, the second floor is the coffee shop/bar, and the front desk? The third and fourth floors are accommodation facilities. The rooftop will become a loop top bar.

When I arrived extremely late on March 16th, I was greeted by the owner, "Chard" (if you are reading this, I am so sorry if I misspelled your name) helped me to my room. This was to be my home in Bangkok for 3 weeks as I go through COVID Quarantine and look for my condo.I can't stress it enough the hostel is incredibly nice; I had a really spacious private room (desk, full size bed, daybed, 2 lamps etc.), very close to the bathroom with 3 showers and 2 toilet stalls and 3 sinks. Very beautiful space as well. All of it contemporary and spacious. Moving onto the cafe area, its awesome. Wood grain furniture, an outdoor balcony for smoking and people watching, lots of places to sit and get work done. The food was great, good variety and excellent coffee and good beverage selection as well. A day did not start right there unless I had a latte, it was essential here.Clearly I was extremely comfortable here at one point and I wished I had the opportunity witness the hostel at its prime or during its busy season and non-pandemic times. It was definitely an energy that was worrisome for guests and staff. Even in these times, the staff was nice and caring and attentive. I would like to thank the hostel or even keeping their doors open when I was literally, the ONLY guest in the hostel residing. I appreciate the hospitality of hostel and I cannot wait to come back for another latte and to experience the rooftop bar when it opens again.

Friendly youth hostel, very welcoming staff. We had booked a private room with shared bathroom. The room was large and comfortable, although a little noisy as it faces the street (Sukhumvit Road). The shared toilets were clean and pleasant.The little rooftop was nice!
