    Very Good Stay in Clean Comfortable Room and Hotel
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Bed in 4-Bed Male Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 4 nights

    Minor points are: The breakfast is free, but uninspiring. It's basically coffee, toast with jam or margarine. It gets tedious after 4 days. The room has some quirky design choices. There is a table projecting from the wall, but it too narrow to work on except for the smallest of laptops. The electrical point is too far from the bed, although the hotel has provided an extension cord in every room. The only above minor issue is: The mattress is thin and the bed is hard even by Asian standards. I slept okay as I'm used to firmer mattresses.

    Welcoming, friendly and helpful staff. I've seen the team clean the the bathrooms and common areas multiple times a day. They even clean your room. The location is fantastic. The clock tower, night market and bus terminal are only 5-10 minutes walk. There's plenty of bars, restaurants and cafes close by. There a lounge or kitchen where you can work on your laptop or just be more social. The kitchen has fridges, plates, utensils and a microwave, but there's no cooking facilities. The room had both AC and fan. The fan helps to circulate air so the AC doesn't have to be as cold. The shared bathrooms are cleaned regularly. with liquid soap and shampoo provided. The hotel even provides a towel free of charge.

    Can't think of anything. Everything was perfect for me.

    This was my first time staying at a hostel, so I was a little apprehensive. But the moment I reached Bed Friends Poshtel, all my worries were gone. The staff were so helpful and nice. Front desk people are pretty fluent in English, so no communication issues. The other staff are also very helpful. The location was great, only a few minutes walk from the old bus station and the night market. The clock tower is also at an walking distance . There are many restaurants nearby, along with a great tea shop (if that's your thing)and many coffee shops, cocktail bars and weed shops. It's perfect for introverts who want an affordable accommodation while keeping their privacy. Everything was neat and clean, and the staff will immediately take care of things if you have any complaints. I highly recommend it, and will definitely stay here when I visit Chiang Rai again.

    The Postal was very close to the bus station, a short walk. When I checked in, they were very helpful, and communicated clearly. He surprised me by telling me my room was on the first floor. I put a note with my reservation asking for a lower room as my knee is sore from trekking in Sumatra. I prefer fewer stairs with my pack. They put me closest to the stairs on the first floor of the rooms. that doesn't normally happen! I loved the top floor covered garden lounge and had early morning coffee up there. It was spotless, the staff was all friendly and helpful and it deserves it's high rating!

    The bed was doing sooooo much noise just by moving an inch, it was super noisy. People slamming the doors and pretty unrespectful, but the hostel can't manage every individual.

    Everything was perfect. The staff was amazing, especially the man that welcomed us at 11pm. The bathroom were super clean.

    Just maybe a bit quiet for some.

    Very nice chilled out hostal. Lovely rooftop area, shame they dont have breakfast up there. The staff were very friendly and helpful they helped me book the boat to Laos. My bank card got stuck in an ATM in one of the small towns on the way to the ferry terminal in Loas. The woman in charge of the hostal associated tour us helped me get it back in Luang Prabang. Forever greatfull 🙏

    The room is a little less spacious for the price I paid. But yea my privacy was assured at least. The room wallpaper is pink - maybe can ask the staff to check in another room without the pink wallpaper. 😅

    Private bedroom Lots of common areas to mingle with hostel mates and chat with the staff Super approachable staff for kind advice - they told me to book grab bike since I didn't have enough time to join the day tour Staff also provided lots of tips to get around the town and there's a rooftop view that's pretty cool to watch at night Comfortable mattress to sleep on Clean shared bathroom

    Nothing it was great

    It was in an ideal location for the nightlife being around the corner but it was far enough away so that it was nice and quiet, the inside was very clean with changing the beds available everyday if you wanted. Free breakfast was great as well and the staff were super friendly

    FYI, I love a good hard bed, but honestly the bed was too hard even for me. It's a really nice bed but it's as hard as a plank of wood. I sleep on my stomach and it actually hurt my breasts sometimes because it was so hard 😂 A few tips to make this place even greater: - a night lamp next to the bed on the little shelf would be really nice, especially because the light is so horribly white - change light bulbs to yellow light, being in that bedroom feels like being in a hospital - find a break system for the doors - they slam and make your own door jolt and a lot of noise. It's a bit annoying when you're trying to sleep

    Great hostel in the dead center of Chiang Rai yet in a quiet street. It was so clean, even the shared bathrooms. Also really nicely decorated and they even have free toasts, coffee and tea in the morning. The staff was really nice, you honestly can't beat that price, especially for the comfort you get. I'd come back there in a heartbeat if ever in Chiang Rai again :)

    No issues, property was great.

    The property was very clean and single rooms were spacious with clean and comfortable bedlinnen en towels. The shared toilet and shower area were also kept tidy and clean at all times. Location is close to the Clock tower, night bazaar and there are plenty if restaurants and bars in the area. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful!
