This hostel was amazing! Possibly the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Really clean and lovely bathrooms, stocked with hairbands and 2 hairdryers. Rooms have great aircon, sometimes too go off but you can choose to change temp. Comfy beds, 2 big pillows and a duvet offered. Fridge to use & free small breakfast. Walking distance to restaurants and shops. And super cheap!! Would 100% recommend. Should note that this is not a social hostel! Also, the weed shop is right next door which is extremely handy
I told the staff as I left but there was a rat in the kitchen area, not anyone’s fault of course and animals are friends <3

This place had the potential to be one of my best stays, calm, quiet, sooooo clean, especially the bathrooms! Nice dining area, over all chill vibes I really enjoyed this hostel, fantastic value for money
Gave it an 8/10 because while eating food in the common area one of the sockets went on fire and we had to pull the fire alarm, there was no one in concierge to help, we had to get people from next door to help ring a fire brigade. Also a random mouse in the kitchen area (didn’t bother us but ideally would rather it outside). You also can’t book excursions through concierge, but not a super big deal because many hostels around the area can do this

This was one of my favourite hostels I’ve ever stayed in. Super cheap, very very clean, great beds and showers, Dyson hairdryers, big mirrors, great aircon, great hangout area downstairs! Would definitely recommend! Great weed shop underneath too
There was a rat in the kitchen while I was staying but it isn’t the hostels fault and I’m sure it’s gone now 🤣 Also it was hard to ever speak to staff for anything as no one was ever around.

The place was very clean and cleaned daily. Having curtains and a private room made it feel special. The only problem was that the staff didn't speak English. I think it's a less-discovered hostel, so it's mostly locals. Still, I really liked it.

The guy on reception was super friendly and helpful. He let us keep our backpacks there whilst we did the Mae Hong Song loop, then had our bags ready in the room when we checked in. Air con in the double room was excellent. Very comfy bedding and excellent location.
Marks on our bedding and the toilets weren't very clean considering the hostel was very quiet. Not a great place to meet people if you're travelling solo but great for a couple of nights for couples. No hangers or hooks in the room for towels/clothes - difficult as the room is very small.

I stayed for more than a week and its perfect. I had to work online and used a lot the space in the entrace. The hostel is located in an amazing place. You have the markets very near. Cleaness.. very clean and they have breakfast but at the same time you have place to keep your food at the fridge. Amazing!!!

Charming place due to the comfort, location, and staff! Bunk beds are cubby style which allows for more privacy. Towels soft and clean. Staff kind and helpful. Easy late check in. Modern and clean. Extra storage space in rooms. Quiet area in the city but walkable to the action and close to songtheaw transport hub. Provides breakfast and drinking water.
It got fully booked up sometimes! Haha

Very nice hostel with comfy (big) beds. I'm 1.85 cm and had space enough. The staff is super friendly and always ready to help. I could leave my luggage here when I went for meditation center and when I returned I could check in early to get some sleep! Location is great close to the night market and highlights are still on walking distance.
The bathroom wasn't super clean. You have to leave your shoes downstairs so I didn't feel comfortable to walk on the bathroom floor, which was not the cleanest. Maybe I just missed housecleaning? The rest of the hostel was clean!

The room & facilities are clean & in good condition.
Except for the aircond. It broke down on my 2nd day there. Water started leaking. Just get that fix and room is 👍. The locker also is without lock. Need to buy/bring your own.
