Being here during Songkran, I expect it to be busy and it doesn’t disappoint however the sanctuary of the lobby of the hotel provided at 7:11 and McDonald’s as well as a great Irish bar upstairs meaning you could enjoy all the festivities without having to constantly walk around getting wet. Staff are very friendly. Rooftop swimming pool is excellent and the room was a little dated was comfortable.

Overall great place to stay if you want to be in the action of the market. I would say it’s worth the extra 10$ fo get a deluxe room vs superior since it’s a little quieter at night, and their are more outlets

Really enjoyed this property. The rooftop pool is a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok although located right in the heart of Khoa San road. The rooms had a ton of old charm making for an excellent stay aside from the noise at night from the clubs on the Main Street.. overall wasn’t a major issue though would recommend!

Considering it’s smack dab in the middle of one of the crazies walking streets in would It’s definitely not perfectly quiet. You can hear the road especially on the weekends, but it it wasn’t to the point that it affected my sleep. The staff was awesome and the pool is an absolute lifesaver, and feels like an oasis in the middle of KhaoSan Rd..

Outstanding

Right in the busy street of Bangkok. Room and rooftop pool were very clean and comfy. Staff were friendly and spoke good English. I would recommend ear plugs for sleeping at night as corsan road is booming with nightlife. Even with this I had a very enjoyable stay. I would highly recommend yo anyone wanting to experience the rush of Thai nightlife as it is right in the centre of it. Took my parents and my partner here and we all thoroughly enjoyed.

The hotel is in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Khaosan Road and counts with a 7eleven shop, a nighclub and a relaxing terrace with a pool and good music on. The room is unique, the bed was extra comfortable, the shower pressure was great and the staff are gentle. It was a bit loud at times, but I had already known it due to its location. You have all the amenities nearby and also a MC Donald's in place. I would stay here again!
