The location is great- only a 10 minute walk from Hua Lumphong station. It's on a quiet street, plenty of restaurants and a 7-eleven nearby. The room was a decent size and very clean (as was the bathroom), with great AC. I like that there's a small kitchen available to use, with a hot/cold drinking water dispenser. They also have a washer and dryer to use for 40 baht each. I really like the upstairs terrace - it's a nice sitting area to relax. The family who runs it is pleasant.

The bed was very firm, which isn't a positive or negative, just a personal preference.

From Don Mueang Airport you can get here for just 5 Baht. You take the old train from airport to Hua Lampong station, and the hostel is just a 4 minute walk from there. From Hua Lamphong Station you can take the underground Metro to Si Lom and Sukhumvit and arrive in minutes. You can walk from hostel to river and get a 5 baht boat across the river to arrive at Icon Siam mall in 25 minutes. The hostel is truly awesome. The owners warm and friendly. A roof garden on roof. Rooms super cosy and very quiet at night.

Everything was awesome

Great value. Good location about 10-15 minutes to either the blue line subway or the ferry. We liked the little neighborhood with all the street vendors and activity. The rooftop made for good viewing. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The common space was cleaned daily. Handy having shared kitchen and access to laundry machines (for a reasonable charge). Room was quiet at night.

Common area is a bit jumbled. In general, the decor is certainly not high-end like the Ritz Carlton but for the price the place is quite nice.

Location is very near to the city center and china town. It is 10 minutes walking distance to Hua Lamphong station. The surrounding has lot of street vendors. Owners are friendly. AC is very good for hot weather in Bangkok

The building is old and the bed is a little not comfortable. But, there is no staff who will help with us with luggages. So, we have to carry by ourselves from 3rd floor.

The view from the room and neighborhood was great. There were food carts and such right outside the doors and the owners were happy to talk about where you should go for the day. Close to docks for boat travel and lots of transportation near. View was nice.

Not very close to many of the large tourist locations by foot. There were small sugar ants in the bathroom but only in the bathroom.

The room was great. Large, airconned with a hood bathroom and basically its the only room on this floor so was also very quiet. The family running it was very pleasent too.

Its a hostel after all so sights like shirtless guests lolling on a sofa or eating ramen in the public areas on the way to the room are common and less than enticing. The room is on the 5th floor which can be problematic to some guests. I havent seen signs of cleaning work being done. The garbage can in the public area wasnt emptied during my 5 days there.

This was by far the best hostel I have ever stayed at - the staff were exceptionally friendly and dedicated to making everyone feel supported, happy, comfortable and safe. Great location in walking distance from the pier and very close to bus stops, a quiet and family friendly neighborhood. Rooms were awesome, air con was best we'd experienced in Thailand and everything was super clean, plus the deck was great to sit on with a good view of the city. But most of all, just can't get past the awesomeness, kindness of the family who run this place. They made us (a queer couple) feel so welcome and safe. Big love to all the family at Urban Hostel from your friends in New Zealand! <3

Nothing, it was perfect!!

Very nice staff (even gave us free water when we arrived🫶🏼), good location in the middle of Bangkok and close to china town. Big room, AC worked just fine

a little bit loud because of the road outside, the Wi-Fi wasn’t that great but not horrible, the toilets were a bit flooded from the showers (shared bathrooms)

The room was clean and comfortable, perfect for a solo traveller. The owners were really kind. I had a warm welcome and the woman was really helpful with giving advice about anything you wanted to know. Another plus is that you could tap cold water for free. I’d definitely come back if I’m back in Bangkok 🤗

The best place we have ever stayed there.. The. Owners are friendly and they helped us a lot. Giving free drinks, brought us to China town and pier for free. Also they prepared hot and cold water, so we can save our drinks budget. Surrounding foods stalls and prices are not expensive but tastes are very delicious. Easy, just walk to 7 eleven and ATM. The owners gave direction how we get to interesting places. Near by MRT.
