One of a kind

Friendly & helpful staff. Good breakfast and variety of fruits. Free snacks (biscuits). It would be nice to have tea. Good wifi, bed is firm and comfortable. Everything is fabulous in Diff Hostel. Only minus points are 1. No human lift for upper floors but there's a lift for luggage 2. Can hear the doors closing and people talking in the corridor at night.

One of the best hostel ever!

This is by far one of the best hostel/hotel that I've ever been in! It is super clean, facilities are more than what I expected & useful & I love love love spending time at the commonroom eating the biscuits & coffee :D The staffs are very friendly & very helpful! The simple decorations are so cute & I wish I could stay longer! For muslims traveller, this hostel is near to a lot of halal eateries. It is also located very near to the BTS station so travelling around is easy! Will definitely recommend this to friends & family & we will definitely be back! Thank you for your hospitality!

Bra läge

Enkelt boende av bättre vandrarhemsstandard. Nytt och rent. Vi bodde i ett dubbelrum, sängen består då av en madrass på upphöjt golv. Bilderna på rummet överensstämmer med verkligheten. Bilderna över utsida och gemensamma utrymmen något förskönade. Ligger ca 6 stationer längs ”cityline” från BKK (flygplatsen). Resan tar 30 min och kostar 45 baht. Frukosten bestod av omelett, rostat bröd med smör och marmelad samt juice och te eller kaffe.

Good Staff, good location.

Staff is nice and helpful. They can provide me good advices on the site seeing spots. Location is good, very close to BTS and 15 mins distance to airport city line. No much restaurants nearby but its okay. My 6-beds female dormitory is big enough. You can open your suitcase. One problem is there are some insects and mites on my bed. That makes me feel uncomfortable. There is a mosque nearby. But sound is not too big. Overall is good.

Great hostel - clean, comfortable, convenient

Loved staying here. The dorms were really clean, comfortable, quiet and nicely designed for privacy and space. Each bed has a privacy curtain and a shelf/locker within the bunk space. Bathrooms also very clean with shampoo/shower gel and hairdryers provided. Staff were friendly and helpful. And the location is perfect. So easy to get to either of the airports (via the BTS line from Phaya Thai and then airport rail link or shuttle bus) or into the city for sightseeing. Highly recommend this place!

再訪問。快適〜

立地もサービスもお部屋も良かったので再び宿泊しました。 ドミトリーですが、洗濯物を干せる1畳ほどの小さなバルコニーと物干し台がありとても便利。物干し台は移動できるので、雨の日は部屋の中でも使えます。 ハンガー、洗濯バサミもありとても使い勝手が良い。 駅に近いのが何より最高で、ウィークエンドマーケットやサメット島、アユタヤ等に行くのに大変便利。 ホテルのスタッフに聞けば親切に行き方を教えてくれます。 旧市街のお寺をまわりたい時には歩いて5分ほどのところにボート乗り場があるのでそれを利用することをおすすめします。 10B前後で到着します。 観光船もあるのですが、1日乗り放題で200Bと高いので、ローカルのものの利用をオススメします。 カオサンロードには道の混み具合によりますがタクシーで70B前後でした。

超おすすめ！

空港から出ている電車の終点Phaya Thai駅から徒歩役7分ほどで到着。 大通りから少し中に入っているので、とても静か。 部屋はとても明るく清潔で洗濯物が干せる小さなバルコニーもあるが、ベッドの遮光カーテンがあるため光で目が醒めることはない。 スタッフがフレンドリーで最高！ 19時ごろ到着したらスタッフ8人ぐらいで外のテーブルで宴会をしており、誘われたので一緒にご飯をご馳走になった。 また、4日目に友達とご飯を食べて深夜12時ごろホテルに戻ると、今友達と飲んでいるから一緒にどう？と誘われて飲んだ。 朝食は日替わりの卵料理とソーセージ、小さめのトースト2枚、日替わりで2種類の果物がビュッフェで用意されていた。 コーヒーやジュースなど飲み物も飲み放題。 BTSの駅にも近く、Siamやプラトゥーナムマーケットまで徒歩15分。 プラトゥーナムマーケットは衣類や靴、雑貨、鞄等がとても安く買え、ビル内にマッサージ屋さんも多い。 40分150B、1時間200Bでサイアムなどの観光地と比べて50バーツ安い上にビル内なのでちゃんと空調が効いているし蚊に刺されない。 観光や買い物で部屋にいる時間が短いのであればアクセスも良いので絶対このホテルにする方がいい。 セキュリティボックスの鍵はフロントで40Bで南京錠を売っているが、鍵を無くしたり等不安であれば100円ショップでダイアル式のものを買って持っていくといいとおもう。 また利用します。
