Very hospitable hostel and staff, great location and on top of that a pool on the roof! Changed towels every day as well. Would recommend choosing the pod option, it is totally worth the slightly higher price. Will definitely return someday 🤞

“Great locations, would stay again.”
Probably our favourite hostel in Thailand! Was super clean and spacious. Bathrooms were great and the pool area was nice. Laundry right next door and reception are happy to swap notes into change if needed.

“Cute hostel in heart of old town”
Wonderful hostel. Has everything you need as a traveller, staff were super friendly and welcoming. The pool is amazing and the beds are comfortable. Had a really good night there and it’s a place I would come back again.

Such a perfect location, right in the Old Town and only a short walk from beautiful streets. As a solo female traveller I felt really safe here - to get in, you had to scan a card and had a separate key to get into the room. I found that people there at the same time as me were sociable, but that’s obviously subject to change dependent on who’s there.
