Liked: David is really helpful and give you lots of advice not only about Thailand but also if you want to travel to Vietnam or Cambodia. Only thing we found was that the bus we booked through Soi 1 to cross into Cambodia was a lot more expensive than that which other people paid, over twice the price.

08 February 2009 Kelvin would recommend this property

Liked: Dave the owner was VERY helpful in sorting out your onward travel and with advice for things to do whilst in Bangkok. The place was also kept incredibly clean and posessions were very safe. My only slight gripe is how far away from Koh San and the good nightlife it was but there is plenty to do down Thannon Sukamvit which is the road off where the hostel is.

Disliked: Kelvin left no negative feedback.
