    Basic spacious room with everything you need. The bed could fit three people! It’s also very quiet at night, no street noise as it’s located in an ally next to a canal. There is a breakfast restaurant in the alley with nice western style breakfast options. Including Healthy options like fruit with yoghurt and fruit smoothies for example. Close to Kao San road and the main temples.

    Doors and paints are little old. (but not a deal breaker) Beware: Bidet is too strong xD HAHA

    Great location, walking distance from Khao San and Grand Palace. (Place is quiet. Thought it would be noisy due to its location, but very peaceful. You will only hear the birds in the morning.) Easy to find, accurate google maps location. It was clean. Not only the room, also hallways. Also, common toilet and shower are super clean! (This is a rare find, as most common facilities are not the same as the ones attached to the rooms.) Free coffee. Free biscuits. Room has no smell (Which is good for me) Heated water.

    Everything was ok, but extremely basic.

    Pleasant but quite simple homestay, not far away from Khao San. Room was extremely basic, bathroom super small, so you could not properly sit on the toilet or shower. Since is it tucked away in a side street, next to the river channel, it is extremely quiet. Be aware you actually live in someone's home. Good for a short stay.

    We loved the location, it’s just steps away from some great restaurants, bars, coffee, and a 7/11. it’s also conveniently located for taking the bus.

    The en-suite was very basic but functional. We were under an impression we’d have a balcony which wasn’t the case. We were charged twice for our laundry and it was mixed up with other guests’ clothes.

    I liked the location and it was quiet and clean.

    The lady who owns the guesthouse is friendly but do not speak very good english, she can't help you for touristy stuff you have to find everything by yourself, nobody is really hanging out in the living room downstairs, so it is more an hotel than a guesthouse. The room was a bit dirty ( hair on pillow) and bathroom was a bit noisy at night (water not evacuating propely), the AC was loud and old but again this is what you get for this price, I did not mind and did not bother me to enjoy my trip to Bangkok.

    Really well located (10min walk to Khao san road), very calm area, free coffee in the morning, next to the guesthouse they were a small restaurant along the canal it is very cheap and the ladies were nice, the room was cheap, I think it is worth the price specially for Bangkok.

    The bathroom is pretty small and there was a bit of sound - like water dropping somewhere nearby the room, but I don't know about the other rooms. Anyways the overall conditions and price are appropriate

    Perfect location to quickly move to the main spits around the city. The common area is very cozy (this time very few people were there so it was totally quiet). The room is nice as well but the bathroom is very small, yet it can be enough to manage for a couple of nights and has hot water

    - very nice staff and very helpful - clean and warm showers - soap and Wi-Fi included, universal outlets - Khoasan road is very close (10 min walk)

    The accommodation was clean and the room was nice. We had AC and warm water. It is like a 8/9 minute walk from Koh San road so it’s close but nice and quiet. There weren’t any other guests when we were there, so it isn’t social, but that we were looking for some peace and quiet so that was nice. The host doesn’t speak English, but she’s very friendly.

    If I would have to point something out it is the humidity of the place (probably not entirely their fault due to the river next to it). But overall good stay and worth the money!

    We only stayed for one night, so we didn't really use much of the facilities. But the staff was friendly and the neighbourhood quiet. Room was clean enough. WiFi worked and there was a hot shower!

    Could be cleaner - especially the bathroom.

    Quaint guest house with a great location - just down the road from Khao San but located far enough away that the noise isn’t an issue. Really liked the small patio at the front of the building, lovely and relaxing on an evening.

    This is an old hotel so everything seems... old! Mosquito nets at the windows need small fixing, one common toilet was out of order (but it's globally clean). Private bathroom is very small. The owner speaks almost no english and interaction is reduced to more or less nothing, so be warned if you need info and advice. Also, this might be good or not depending on how you like your stay, but there is no "hostel life".

    Good situation: quiet as there are no streets around the hotel, and it's near the Rambuttri / Kao San area or the Phra Athit road (with the buses). Everything works: AC, hot water.
