My first experience staying in a hostel was better than I expected. Actually, living with strangers is not new to us. Because I used to be a dormitory student before. Dormitory room on the 3rd floor has 8 beds, towels are provided, and the shared bathroom is separated from the shower room. There is complete equipment, standing shower, big shower, strong water, good drainage. This point is impressive because it's better than many hotels I've stayed at. The overall atmosphere is well decorated, Loft style, bare cement, not perfectly smooth, but not cluttered, with features on the walls. The high ceilings are not uncomfortable. There are kettles, eating utensils, microwaves, drinking water, and refrigerators, which are sufficient. There are 2 things I'd like to ask for: 1) a non-slip mat in the shower room, 2) blackout curtains on the window on the front balcony.The overall picture is very impressive. Have a chance to come use the service again.

Never had such weird experiences in a hostel. Hardly any space to enter the main door. Always a big car is parked infront of the main entrance. There is no fan or ac working in the lobby and reception areas. No air circulation at all. Ac is fine in the dorms. Only 1 washroom in the mixed dorm floor.If you have heavy luggage, it is very difficult to carry it to the 3rd floor. There is no lift. And the stairs are very steep.Worst experience was, we kept our luggage in the lobby and checked out and went out. The owner kept calling continuously to collect the luggage. Will never recommend to book this hotel.

A quiet space for those looking for affordable places to stay alone or in pairs that is close to chatuchak market. The staff are also very helpful. The place is generally very clean especially the bathroom, and the dorms are also very spacious. The common area on the third floor could use a fan but other than that, it's a really nice cozy space to stay in!
