Great place to stay!”
The place has probably the best value for money in Chiang Mai. The staff and owners are very friendly, ready to help and give advice on any questions one may have. There are great offers from the hostel for booking tours. If one does book a tour from the hostel then they give you a bonus of either 1 night free stay or many other various bonuses for doing so. I ended up coming back to stay here after my first 4 nights, just to stay another 7 nights or so again. I have tried staying in the 4 bed dorm, the 12 bed dorm and in the private room. All rooms were spacious, clean and very affordable. My top priority is that the place has to have no bed bugs (no signs of that at all), it was generally very clean! The beds are very comfortable (thick mattress). All in all a great place to stay, thank you for everything, i would definitely stay here again if i come back to Chiang Mai

The best hostel in Chiang Mai”
This hostel is very cool, it has all sorts of options in terms of rooms. The owner was one of the nicest people i met in Thailand, she has so many advices and tips for all of your needs! The offers they offer for tours comes with extra benefits, such as getting an extra free night at the hostel, or a free battery pack or 200 baht credit, its amazing! The rooms and beds were kept clean every day. The value for money is unbeatable in all of Chiang Mai! The vibe in the hostel was great. I would highly recommend this hostel to everyone! Thank you so much for everything. I am definitely coming back to this hostel next time im in Chiang Mai, i just hope its available as its very popular!

Excellent”
The property is quite old but everything is fine. Hot shower, cleanliness, and there is a locker on the bed which is a plus.

Solo travel”
I’ve been there for 1 day only but really like the rules there, it’s about self-consciousness. They will expect to hygiene’s customer quite clean as put shoes outside, stinky clothes not allow to dry in the dorm, etc. 1 big plus point is this hostel really near the night market and many nice coffee shop, also Chiang Mai airport. I will recommend it for solo traveller like me!!!

Great stay, clean, great owner”
5 minutes walking distance from the night market which is super nice. Far away from the bus station tho (to consider if you want to take the bus to Pai or Chiang Rai at some point). The owner was very friendly and helpful. The dorm were very clean and quiet and the bed cozy and comfy. Would definitely recommend!

Very good”
Can’t go wrong for the price. Cheap and basic, has all you need for a good price. The owner is really nice and helps with anything you need. She let me have a late checkout till 4 so I didn’t have to sit around for my bus all day. They organise tours, trips and any other transport. Added bonus sat night market is on the street outside and every day a great st food market is at the top of the road

Okay”
Considering the price, the hostel is fine. At the same time, you can pay the same price or even a little less to stay elsewhere in Chiang Mai and be in nicer hostels. There are only a couple of bathrooms (far fewer than the number of beds), and these tended to be not super clean and let tons of mosquitoes in through the open windows. The bed was really comfortable, though, and has nice dark curtains, plug, light, and a small safe. The location is also fine for visiting the Old Town, though it isn’t as lively at night as some of the main hostel areas around the North Gate.

Aight”
Great location Hostel was old and dinghy, private room was for sure overpriced for what I got. AC started leaking on my head one night. The place is old so even when its clean it looks dirty. Window in room didnt close so it could get kind of loud and people could here me inside the room. Akward first impression, was placed in dorm room, the staff didnt seem to know I was coming that day even when I showed them booking.

Above average”
super cheap. good place to crash down. when chk in or chk out there's no staff at reception. I chk out by writing down a note and return the key card. you can travel anywhere by a motorbike. not close to a decent restaurant.

they require more money”
they require more money for using air conditioning. I didn't expect that. They should inform about that before I reserve. And you have to pay for using towel also. It's better to go to another hostel with the same price including air conditioning fee

Acceptable”
The lady when she was there which was not often or at all was very nice. The pictures look nothing like the beds in fact I think they must be fake pictures. It’s a very old hostel and there’s no atmosphere. The air con is turned off in the morning so it’s absolutely boiling. Fine for a night if you’re on a budget and don’t care about meeting anyone/want an old hostel

Highly Recommend”
This hostel was took me by surprise. The dorms and bathrooms are what you would expect for the price, but it is really the service that made this place memorable. The owner is so sweet and will do what she can to always accommodate and make sure you have a great stay. She gives great rates on all tours when booked through her, this month she was also offering a free night and breakfast with a tour booking! I was able to check in early and due to the promotion, extend my stay for 3 days at very little cost. Good a/c in the rooms and nice common area with a fridge. Location is great, short walk to the south gate food markets every night where you can eat for under $3US a day! And the Saturday walking markets go right down the street in front of the hostel! Will absolutely stay here again!!

Brilliant hostel”
Brilliant hostel really helpful and friendly staff, have lots of knowledge on things to do buses you can get and hiring motorbikes. The beds were good curtain to pullover for privacy own light and plug sockets only thing is don't have lockers but it's a secure hostel. Kitchen appliances so can make pot noodles etc and space to bring food and eat. Right by the square with all the food stalls.

Good value”
Cons - other than old city and weekend market, it is a distance to travel to night market (~15-20 mins walk), train (10 mins by tuktuk), and bus station (15mins by tuk tuk) . Wifi strongest in lobby. Better maintaince might be needed to keep the bathroom clean. It is otherwise sufficient for my 2 nights stay. Pros - curtains in bunk beds for privacy. Hosts are friendly and would share knowledge on things to do. Many tours and onward journey trips can be booked with them - prices are transparent and written on the wall. Seems to be offering valued trips and discounts. Has bike rental that is cheaper than outside places as well.

Good atmosphere very basic hostel.”
Good location and comfy beds with some privacy if you want cos of curtains. Nice bunch of people visiting the hostel. however the place needs a renovation big time - the shower was mouldy and the water was dripping from the ceiling downstairs. Nice and helpful staff and loads of trips etc. optional breakfast. You get what you pay for. Plus few new friends 😀

Ok hostel”
I stayed in the hostel two times, in March and now in April during Songkran. The first stay was in the original location of the hostel and it was great! Nice bed, quite peaceful athmosphere and the owner-lady was super helpful! The toilets/bathrooms are a bit old though. During Songkran I was transferred to the new location inside the walls. The new place was definitely not ready for guests!! Leaking pipes, water off almost all the time, broken air-conditioning, logitics problems between the different branches etc. Toilets and showers were small and you didn't really get any privacy. The staff tried their best but they had too much in their hands. Maybe when the building is ready, the place shows its true face!
