I sent money from India for 3 days accommodation. But they refused to recognise it. I had to pay the amount again. Absolute absence of knowledge of English is a drawback. They cannot understand even a word like time. Their office is open only from 9 to 10. There should be a provision to accommodate people on 24X7 basis.

Nice and relazing place.
Here was in the middle of such a local place. Maybe only one hostel around this area. It does not mean bad. Staffs were friendly and always tried to help guests with good smile. A cup of coffee served here was also good. You will have pleasant stay unless you have someone snoring like a bulldozer in the middle of the night.

The person at the counter was very friendly and the atmosphere was good. The place is however quite a distance away from the BTS and can be easily missed even though it's just by the road.

This is one of the best hostel in the city. It's almost complete with many great facilities and perfect location (easily accessible to many shops & amenities, train station, bars, street food, market, malls, 7Eleven, Tesco and many more! Few helpful and friendly staff around too. I had a very wonderful stay here for a week and will surely stay in Backpack Station again in the near future when I travel to Bangkok! Almost wouldn't ever want to leave!

Good for longer term stay on a budget, Washer and dryer available on rooftop. 30 baht per regular load. Not next to BTS but walkable with some effort. Bus stops in the area.Street food stalls right outside hostel, some open till late at night. Many other local shops and market lanes close by selling food and non food items. Check in asked for passport and immigration card, needed to complete check in form.

great place
They provide breakfast, not traditionally thai: cereals, milk, toasts. But after eating thai food three times a day for weeks, that breakfast the most enjoyable. Service is really good and polite. They allowed me to leave my backpack for some time so I could have lunch around. Just outside there’s a loca market full of food, very handy.

Amazing service!!
Really impressed by the service! The staff was so nice and accommodating, letting me switch from a bunk bed to a single room with private bathroom. Of course, I couldn't get a refund but I didn't mind, and the staff felt bad about it and gave me a discount! The hostel was properly maintained and very clean. Location was great too, 10 min walk from Phra Kanong BTS and delicious street food right at your doorstep. Overall, I had an amazing stay and would definitely book again if I come back :) Would recommend that you save the hostel's name and address in THAI. Helps a lot with navigation when you take taxi or Grabcar/bike.

Wi-Fiが速く、ノマドスペースもある。 さらに、水も無料で飲める神宿です。 近くには、コンビニや屋台飯、ちょっと遠いですが、スタバもあり充実してます♪ ただ、1週間で予約する場合は、エクスペディアで予約するより現金で払った方が安いです。 1日は…どうだったかな?

場所が入り込んだ所にあって、夜遅いと少し危ないかなという印象でした。 近くにセブンがあったので、便利は良かったです。 チェックインの時、女性のスタッフからパスポートを投げて返されて、早口で目を合わせず話したかと思えば、他のスタッフと笑いながらチェックインはいつの間にか終わったようで、別の人に案内してもらいました。 シャワールームは男性と共有なのかな?のようでした。本当に汚かったです。 また1番奥のシャワールームは水しか出ません。 あと部屋の鍵がかからず、セキュリティが甘いなと感じました。女性専用で予約したのですが、真隣はミックスであまり関係無いような感じです。 2段ベットが薄いベニヤ板で、揺れるし、登るのが大変でした。 シーツには血の跡が着いていて、洗ったのかも知れませんが、、 タオルは有料です。 宿泊の日本人は多いので、慣れない方は安心かも知れません。 ウォーターサーバーがあったのは良かったです。またチェックアウト後もフロントが締まるまで荷物も預かってくれるのは助かりました。しかし、荷物は冷蔵庫の隅に放っておかれるので、盗難のリスクは否めません。 ある程度選んでいたのですが、私の中でワースト1位になった宿でした。 この値段より安くでもっといい宿がありました。

このネット上の高評価は、何かを操作しているのでは?
口コミが大変良かったので予約しましたが、ガッカリしました。このような口コミを書く事は初めてなのですが、ネット上の評価に騙された一人として情報を共有したいと思います。 まず、部屋が3階以上になります。もちろんエレベーターなどありません。到着当日、重い荷物を持ち、必死に階段を上がっているのに、スタッフは手伝うどころかスタスタと先に上っていきました。 洗濯物使用自由となってますが、毎日スタッフが2台ある洗濯機を午前中ずっと使っていて、使えません。「ちょっと使いたいから一台使わせてもらえないか?」と言っても、「今シーツ洗ってるから」と聞く耳持たず。実質洗濯機を使えるのは昼過ぎからなので、夜に乾かしていました。 部屋は綺麗とは言い難いです。ダニに刺されました。2週間経った今でも跡が消えません。 あまり色々言いたくは無いのですが、さらには、若いスタイルの良い女性スタッフが欧米人のお客さんと仲良しになり、ロビーでキスはするわ、際どい所を触るわ、非常に不快でした。他のお客さんを見る目との違いがあからさまでした。まぁ若い方なのでそこまでは許すとして、その女性スタッフが顧客情報をパソコンで見ている時に、その欧米人がずっと隣で身体を触りながら座っていたのですが、完全に個人情報が筒抜けなので止めていただきたい。 駅からも距離があるし、プラカノン駅は特に何も無いので、わざわざここに泊まる理由が見当たりません。同価格で同程度以上の宿泊先はいくらでもあります。皆様、どうか良い旅を!!

Feeling warm and safe. Public area at lobby is comfortable. Recommend to try fresh coffee,its tasty with relax place in busy area. So many local food around all day and night. Slow walk to BTS around 10 mins and 5 mins to local maket in the morning. Accomodation Comfy bed and clearly arrange on public rest room. Pillow is too flat but mestress and linen bed sheet made me look over negative point. Service Thumb up for all staffs, very friendly and helpful. Impressed with invite dinner from staffs. You guys make this place special. Thank you, Nina

日本人がたくさんいる宿です。 駅からは、初めて訪れると遠く感じます(8〜10分)。大通りにはWマーケット、ホテルの前には屋台やコンビニがあるので困ることはありません。屋上には、大量のハンガーがあり1回30バーツで洗濯できます。 臆せず声をかけ合いましょう。旅は道連れです。

宿泊はしてませんが、ダブルルームを予約して荷物を置くために利用しました。 駅から徒歩10分。エカマイから数駅で着きますが、都会でありローカルである場所です。 近くにはスーパーもあり、過ごしやすいです。 宿については日本人多めな印象? ひとつ気になることは、揺れ。 車?が通る度に揺れを感じた。泊まるとなると少し気になるかな。
