Green Sleep Hostel

Chiang Mai Old Town, Chiang Mai

Well situated in the centre of Chiang Mai, Green Sleep Hostel offers air-conditioned rooms, a shared lounge and free WiFi. The property is close to several well-known attractions, 1 km from Chang Puak Market, 1.3 km from Chiang Mai Gate and 1 km from Chang Puak Gate. The accommodation features room service and a tour desk for guests. The accommodation was neatly cleaned every day. I stayed in a room with a window, and the entire building was well ventilated. There was a separate refrigerator for guests, so I could conveniently store my personal items. The staff always had smiling faces and were really friendly. The accommodation was located in an alley, so it was quite quiet. Even though the alley was right on the road where the Sunday night market was held! I really recommend it in all aspects: location, cleanliness, and staff. If I come back to Old Town, I want to use it again :)
