I stay 6 night here on private room. Located near to Ratchawong Pier so you can catch Tourism Boat very easy. The location is also near to China Town and it is easy for you that want to look street food at night.Plus the owner is very friendly and informative. She also give an advice what is the best way to travelling around city and suggest a place to visit in Bangkok.

Great place to visit Bangkok, on the edge of Chinatown, the owners of the establishment are the most caring people I have met in my life! The rooftop is superb, there is a bakery 100m away for breakfast.

I stayed for 5 nights in a large private room.Great hostel.First of all, the location is good.1 minute walk from Rachawong Pier3 minutes walk to 7-Eleven5 minutes walk to ChinatownAbout 10 minutes walk to MRT Wat Mangkon.Chinatown is extremely noisy at night, but the area around the hotel is quiet and you can sleep well.Second, it's very clean.The building is new and has an elevator.The water pressure in the shower is also sufficient.There is not a single stain on the sheets.Wi-Fi sensitivity is excellent.When you go up to the roof, the wind feels cool,You can see the Chao Phraya River where gorgeous dinner cruise ships come and go.Lastly, the hospitality of the owners and their children is amazing.Even when I was on the go, I was able to quickly answer various questions and orders on LINE.He also showed me around delicious restaurants and loopholes in the neighborhood.I'm always smiling.Next time you visit ChinatownI would like to stay again.

This time I stayed in a room with a private bathroom. The room was very clean and bright, and I slept well. Even small children liked the room. The view from the top floor is very good, the scenery is very different in the morning and evening! There is a convenience store nearby. It is very convenient to go to Chinatown or take a boat. The reception staff are very friendly and enthusiastic. I will stay here again next time. Overall, I like it very much! !

The hostel is brand new and beautifully furnished.It's very familiar, so not too many beds - and a great hostess who immediately makes you feel welcome.The view from the rooftop is great and invites you to enjoy the view in the evening, for example.The pier and a 7/11 are right around the corner, so a great starting point.I will definitely check in again when I'm back in Bangkok.Thank you for the great stay!

I highly recommend !After traveling 2 months in Asia and staying in over 25 different hostels, this place is definitely my favorite. Everything is super clean, well decorated and spacious. The common levels are very comfortable, both inside of outside with the rooftop (stunning view).The bedding is soft and high quality, you have 2 plugs per bed (that’s rare!), a led light. Female and male bathrooms, hair dryer, great quality shampoo. No limitations for AC either. You have a water dispenser in the common area to refill your bottles.The location is perfect, 5 minutes walk from the china town main area and on the pier so you can take the cheap taxis boats. So super easy access to go to the main temples to see in Bangkok too.And the staff ! They were lovely, she helped me for any ticket i needed, to change my thaï bath into an other currency, with my airport taxis and even to find the best iced coffee in the area ! We can clearly see that she is made to work un hospitality.5/5 with no doubt, would go again anytime.

Everything was great, the receptionist was extremely helpful and nice. I've never experienced anything like this. She even asked us for our whatsup accounts to give us tips about whatever we were looking for, icluding at times when we were out and about. Very friendly, didn't feel akward whatsoever. The view from the roof is absolutely wonderful. We spent our every night chilling there before we went to bed. The view makes the city seem so peacefull even tho there is a busy night market 2 streets over every night. There is a shared kitchen that can be used at whatever time of day, fully equiped and with the possibility to purchase snacks and water, beer if you are into that :D. It's most definitely a pearl of Bangkok when it comes to price/value/quality of accomodation. Room was very clean and tidy, modern. There is also a pier behind the corner that connects you to SkyTrain which is only 2 stops away so accessibility is great as well.

This was the perfect hostel for our short stay in Bangkok. Only one minute walk from Ratchawong Pier makes it super easy to hop on a boat to visit different areas. China Town is fun. Talat Noi was nice to discover. Pat at reception was really nice. She gave us lots of good recommendations. We are very happy with our stay!

Everything was excellent during our stay. The rooms extremely comfortable (bed amazing, shower great, everything spotless clean). The staff was extremely attentive. The location absolutely perfect, in the middle of Chinatown but a few steps from a pier to take a boat to other parts of Bangkok and in a very quiet spot. Really amazing views. Would come back here no doubt.
