Super central, very safe day and night for a person traveling alone. I recommend you order the taxi service both to come and to go to the airport, impeccable and fixed price. They gave me local recommendations and were always eager to help. They have a washer and dryer. Walking to everything and with all the comforts. It is in an alley away from the hustle and bustle and you sleep very peacefully.

The staff were so kind that I almost cried.Even though I was over an hour late for check-in, she greeted me with a smile🥹Furthermore, I didn't know that I couldn't use credit cards, so I didn't have much cash, so I was in a hurry, so I walked 5. He guided me to the money exchange 🥹 Furthermore, on the way back, I also wanted to take a photo of the night view (temple). He asked me, took the trouble to guide me there, and waited for me 🥹Anyway, you are so kind! ! Cute smile!I love Thailand 🇹🇭The washing machine looked clean. Also, are the slippers soft? Puripuri? It feels good to do it.It's a bit disappointing that there are no hangers...

Enjoy this hostel with private rooms. Near all the major attractions you want to see and with a great view of the Chao Phraya River. Honestly, you'll see tourists come by to take pictures at night of the Golden Palace lit up at night.The rooms are great and clean room with options from private rooms to shared dorms.Oil and her team like boon are so delightful. And Oil has got a ton of advice of all the attractions to check out near by.

We were looking for a base to visit the Royal Palace, Wat Pho, Wat Arun and the Flower Market and, luckily for us, we found the Chaiwat Guesthouse.When you arrive, you need to contact the Chaiwat Photo photography shop next to the 7-Eleven on the main street Tha Suphan Alley. Here you will find the friendly Oli or his brother who will accompany you to the entrance of the Guesthouse next door. For any problem or advice I always chatted via WhatsApp with Oli.I found the structure and the room exactly as in the photos I had seen on the internet.Basic, clean, equipped with air conditioning, WiFi, hairdryer, mosquito nets on the window. The window overlooks the alley, but in the area there are many places on the river for your sunsets overlooking Wat Pho.A few minutes' walk away is the Sanam Chai Metro stop, the pier to take the direct boat to Wat Arun (next to the Suppaniga restaurant) and the Wat Pho pier for a ride on the canals or the Chao Phraya river.On the main street you will always find tuc-tucs and taxis (I have always used the Grab App for taxis or to check the costs of the journeys).On the parallel alley you can get a nice massage at the Chetawan Traditional Massage School (a center run by the same masters as Wat Pho).When I return to Bangkok I will definitely return to Chaiwat and Oli

Excellent guesthouse. Very clean and comfortable in a great location nearby an MRT and many tourist attractions. Ideal if you want to stay on a quiet road nearby all the best sites. Felt like a hotel and great price as well. There is a room on the 3rd Floor with a view of the river. Next door is a lovely ice cream parlour.It had AC and wifi. Nearby is a 7 eleven and plenty of restaurants, an ATM and shops.The manager Oil and the other staff are very kind, caring and welcoming. She gave tips and help during my stay.Would 100% come back and highly recommend.

This is my fourth hostel during my stay in Thailand. Not the fanciest among the 3 but one of the cleanest and customer service centric. The owner-Oil is very good at giving recommended eats, nearby attractions and transportation.

Great location, wifi, air conditioning, comfortable bed, very friendly and attentive staff, daily change of towels, and room cleaning, they refilled our water without telling them anything... in general very good, there was no noise at night, place recommended to stay, just below you have a 7 eleven and places to eat in the most Thai style, very close to the main temples of the city.

We received a warm welcome from the owner who speaks good English. Rooms are a bit on the small side, but you know that when you book this hotel. Service was very good and rooms are very neat.
