Stayed in this Amazing place from 26th-31st March 2013. Staff, Nicky, Lalita, and the Rest were simply delighting the guests by attending to most of their requests. The Check-in is smooth as Thai Silk, may be 3 mins. The rooms are better than a 4 star hotels when u take the value for money option, as they r spotless, clean bed linnen, reading lamp and A/C all day along.....Further the wash rooms were extra clean as they were regularly looked after by attentive cleaning staff.

As per guidance Lalita, is an encyclopaedia bangkok, as she is correct even to the minute bus route number. The other aspect is the most of the staff's ability to converse in English. If they dint understand sumthn they made a habbit to guide us to staff who could understand our question.

The location is ***** stars as its a stones throw from the wir port rail link. U can get to the hostel within 35 mins of landing. (That's if you get to the basement level and take the rail link from SVB to Ratchaprarop station). The train journey costs 45 Bahts onwards and 40 when returning to SVB.

FnB wise again ***** stars as the hostel has a well equipped kitchen.(No cook top). But rice cooker, a microwave, and water kettle are all there with plenty of clean crockery. Two supermkts are like 1 min walk from either sides of the hostel. I recommend the Eon supermkt, as it is 24 hrs, professional staff, huge variety of Thai n International items and acceptance of Amex and other CCards.

Thai street food is about 3 mins walk from the hostel and two 7-11s are in 5 mins walk. But seriously just pop in to the 24 hrs Eon and you can get Sushi platter for 69 Baht, Noodles, Oven fresh Bread 40 Baht, Pre cooked Thai dishes 45 Baht, and 3in1 coffee sachets at 3.50 Baht each.

Pratunam is like 7 Mins walk from the hostel. Center world, Indra mkt, Plantip Plaza, Platinum Mall are just two shouts away,,,,, may b 10-16 mins walk......

Famous Sukhumvit Rd is 15 mins away. You can get up to Wat Arun(the furthest a traveller wud travel in Bkk from the hostel) by taking the bus route 2,60, or 511 for 6.50 Baht or AC bus at 13 baht.

I hate Tuk tuks and their scams, so dint even luk at the stooges. Also the hostel staff is kind enough to post all the necessary warnings to stay away from obvious troubles in Bkk.

The staff let you live in peace. So it feels as if you are at home...... And a Big thank goes to ma roomies, Stu(Australia), Andrea(Italy), the two Alaskans, the American Australian......Coz we all had a common understanding and we all were flexible enuf so that every1 enjoyed their stays as per their individual likings.

wifi is their with high speed connection. self srvc laundry is there, 40 baht per wash..... free dryer thanks to the poring sun shine.... clothes are dried to paper thin within 2 hrs,,, guys......

I think I cvrd everything a solo traveller might need to know about this Amazing Place........Highly Recommend and Would Definitely Come Back......
