I stayed here with a group of friends when we first arrived in Bangkok. The location is excellent and close to the famous Khoasan street and other attractions. The room was very small, fitted with a TV and shower. It was clean but didn`t look anything like the photos on their website. The staff at the reception and restaurant was... More

This place certainly isn't the Ritz, however it serves it's purpose if all you are looking for is a room for the night. Room was small which didn't really bother me and it didn't look anything like the nice photos on the website! Close to Khao San but far enough to avoid the noise.Stayed here for one night with no...

Great location in Bangkok, but it is next to or on top of night club with loud music playing till 5:30am. One can fell that deep base pounding all night long. Otherwise it is a clean place with friendly staff and a very good buffet breakfast.

I stayed here on both my first and last nights in Thailand. The inn is basically located right on Khaosan Road. It was tricky for me to find on my first night, as Khaosan Road was quite overwhelming to me and the entrance was set back a bit. The rooms are small but comfortable enough, though they do smell a...

I stayed there 3 nights at the beginning of January. I love the location: 150 m from Khaosan Road. The advantages without too much noise. I had a good price: 650 b with breakfast and illimited Wifi. The breakfast was small but OK, and the Wifi, even if limited to 512K and sometimes stopped, was acceptable. There is no lift,... More

Quite dirty and noisy, staff aren't very proactive and the tuk tuk drivers outside are not to be trusted. It is a good location if you like the Khao San touristy area. Next time we would look to stay away from this area and in another hotel.

Couldn't find a better location for the amount you pay. The rooms are reasonably clean and just a stone's throw away from busy Khaosan Road and the Royal Palace. It's a no-frills type place, but it suited everything I wanted from Bangkok - cheap, cheerful and centrally located.
