Don’t bother

Firstly, I just want to say that we’re not fussy travellers- We’ve stayed in loads of budget hostels and completely understand that you get what you pay for. However, the hostel advertised on Hotels.com is not what we found when we arrived...The hostel staff were rude and check in took a long time. They couldn’t work the card reader, nor did they have change and the receptionist was ether doing her make up or watching YouTube as opposed to being helpful. Our bed had a curtain that had fallen apart and therefore didn’t work, letting light in from the rest of the room, and there was nowhere to store our luggage and whilst staying there. When we asked if there was anywhere to put it during the day the staff just told us to leave it in our shared dorm room, when we queried how secure this was (and also where it would fit- we ended up leaving it on our bed) they seemed unbothered and unhelpful. In the end I asked for one of the bags with our valuables in it to be locked in storage whilst we were out for the day. We came back to find that the bag hadn’t been put in storage at all but just left behind a mostly unattended desk all day (despite advertising luggage storage and a safe behind reception). The bar advertised does not exist, the entire place is unclean (even the towel they gave me was dirty, and there were hairs and dirt all over our bed), and none of it looks anything like the photos advertised. Would not recommend to anyone.

Once entering the room I can feel I will be happy with this room. They got nice city view and just 1 door to rooftop. A total new experience to me. Toilet aircond all in good condition. Love the bed. Makes me dont want to leave it. A part from that the only thing that bad is the location to bts. It too far like 10 min walking but there a lot of cabs you can catch. Or you can use motor grab it be cheaper

Great stay for a night or 2.

Clean with great facilities. Roof top is great for a chill out area. close to 7/11 big C coffee shops and BTS 20mins away. Downside no common area, only small reception. Bar/Lounge owned by someone else and prices are too expensive for backpackers. If u sleep on 1st floor you hear the music at night quite loud.

Small hostel with limited facilities

CONS: This hostel is really small, common area is in the lobby which is so small. It is far from the attractions so i do not recommend if it's your first time in Bangkok. The lobby is in the second floor, you have to go up in a spiral stair outside with your luggage in order to go to the hostel, might be a problem when you go back drunk. PRO: Staff are really friendly, very helpful and considerate :).

Loved the Bob Hostel

The Bob hostel is situated in an awesome location, just a short walk to the trendy area in Thong Lor with plenty of great food and drink options. The hostel rooms are very clean, with plenty of great facilities for all. The beds have USB ports for charging your phone and blinds for extra privacy. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were also nice. Mek was super-friendly and also made some recommendations for food and drink on our first night in Bangkok. The girls at reception are also very friendly and speak great English. Easily one of the best hostels I've stayed in around the world.

후기가 없어서 쫄았지만 좋은 숙소였다

데모클럽 옆에 있어 이동하기 편했고 그렇다고 시끄러운 것도 아니었다. 24시간 직원이 대기하고 있고 빨래 할 때 세제를 근처에서 사와야하는 것이 조금 불편했다.
