This professionally-run place is well-located just off the main Khao San strip and has fair rooms though many of them are very small. For the standard the prices are not unreasonable, but they're small and get a bit of noise from the bars outside. The dorm is a bit pricey and there have been a few reports of them being less than spic and span. The superior triple has a big refrigerator, but a tiny bathroom, although there was lots of soap and shampoo. There is also a popular ground-level common area, restaurant and bar. All rooms have discounts for stays of three or more nights.

Very shabby - 29th October, 2007
Only stayed here 1 night. Wasn't worth the 1350 THB for the triple, very, very tired, bathroom door didn't lock. I'd go somewhere else.

Old but clean and including breakfast - 23rd February, 2009
We booked this hostel online with a Dutch tourcompany (D-reizen). We arrived at 7 in the morning, like I told them earlier with my reservation, but the room wasn't ready yet. We had to wait for 2 hours in the lobby and could get in the room.
The room was clean and quite big with a fridge. We had the superior double room with aircon, which costed 950 Baht. The normal double aircon room is much cheaper (about 650 Baht) and has the same facilities (maybe no fridge). The rooms are just smaller.
The aircon was old and noisy, but worked fine.
The breakfast is included and you can choose from pancakes, sandwiches and noodlesoup.
The location is in an alley off Khao San Road, which makes it less noisy.
Overall a good place to stay at Khao San Road.

Terrible - 13th September, 2005
The rooms are basic but functional for the price, the staff were Ok but not overly helpful. The worst part was the state of the toilets in the garden restaurant area -- believe me if you ever smelt these you would never return! The vilest smell I have ever encountered. Would never stay here again, especially considering you can pay significantly less money for a similar poor standard!

Not too hot - 27th March, 2005
Soi Rambutri has better values, if you want private bath/air-con. This place is impossible to find by taxi (because of its location down a dingy alley and the presence of five or so other sawasdee hotels in the area). Sheets were dirty -- stained with cigarette-burns -- but the staff wouldn't give us new ones. Also, woke up in the middle of the night to neighbours complaining about leaking ceilings. the rooms are tiny and look nothing like the pictures on the website. (see how the "single" and "double" pictures are actually the same photo, with a pillow added to make a double bed?)
