Location ideal. Plenty of shops nearby and only 10 mins walk to Sky Train. Taxis/bikes very easy to get from outside. Free wireless internet and two different things on TV at a time meant I could catch most of the football. Chicken fried rice was superb!

The room is quite big if compared to Silom hostel and is indeed value for money.

NO COCkROACHES!!!!!!!! a lot of the other places i have stayed at you couldn't get away from them. The food is great and the staff are friendly and easy to deal with and Honest people. Thats why this was my second stay at big Johns. I probably wouldn't go anywhere else when in Bangkok.

I would recommend a private room they are very cheap. Excellent that you can leave luggage there and come back for it, not too sure how good security is with that

The lady at the desk was very friendly, patient and helpful. Big John was kind enough to give me a refund for one night when I had to change plans.

It was my first stay in this type of accomodation as I am on my own now and of a mature age. I was hoping to meet people,converse and hopefully participate in the activities of a younger generation. BigJohns Hostel's atmosphere enabled this to occur and I look back at some wonderfull times I enjoyed in Bangkok
