Stopover in bangkok
In general a nice place to stay for a short time the only things I didn't like was that it's too far away from centre of Bangkok u def have to rely on the mtr It's a shame that the hostel is down an alleyway and trying to get directions to find the hostel can be very incredibly frustrating if ya don't speak Thai But def would recommend friends to go there

Clean and convenient
Hostel was among the cleanest I've stayed at, comfy beds, plug in, and reading light. Really good wifi and hot water showers so not much to complain about. It was a bit of a walk to the train station but great street food just outside the building. Only weird part is that we never seen any staff. Just once to give us a key and that was it. No reception.

チェックインにちょっと困った
安宿としてはおおむね良好でした。 欠点とすればホテルの向かいが市場なので朝早くからちょっと騒がしくなる。ご夫婦での経営かな、夕方に到着したときスタッフ不在で滞在客に入口を開けてもらい、かつフロントにスタッフに連絡するための携帯が置いてあったけど英語が片言なので、入口を開けてくれた人が電話してくれて、部屋に案内してくれた。スタッフは一時間位してからきました。

Fräscht men dåligt läge
Ägaren har väldigt lite kunskap i engelska så servicen är lite svår och när vi kom dit så var receptionen stängd. Rummen kändes väldigt instängda och små utan fönster men bekväma sängar med rena sängkläder. Hostelet är väldigt nytt, rent & modernt. Tyvärr ligger det lite i utkanten så du får gå ca 20 minuter för att hitta lite roligare delar.

従業員が親切で綺麗なホテル
ホテルの場所は分かりにくいですが、ホテル自体は清潔感があり、寝るだけには申し分ないです。バスタオルとドライヤーもあります。キッチンが自由に使え、クッキーやフルーツを食べたり、コーヒーを飲んだりできます。従業員がとても親切でした。また機会があれば泊まりたいと思います。
