In a Box Hostel

It was a okay stay not many young travellers my age but it’s cheap. One night the guy next door (there’s always some dude sitting at a table) yelled at me and scared me for talking on the phone to my friend. He also glared at me until I went in side and made me feel really unsafe. I told the staff and they didn’t seem to do anything about it. Luckily I only had one more night or I would have moved accomdations. Better for men not for solo female travellers

Very good stay Pros: - quiet location - clean and comfortable - baggage service - very welcoming staff Pleasant common spp. Cons: RAS It’s up to what one would expect from a youth hostel

Would I stay here again? - YES I love the location. It's literally just 50 metre walk from the BTS Sukhumvit Line - Phaya Thai Station. The hostel is situated in a quiet alley just behind the main road as you get off the station. So you don't actually hear that much noise of the train and traffic. For muslims, the hostel is also within 7 to 10 minutes walk to the Darul Aman Mosque where you would find many Halal restaurants nearby the Phetchaburi Road, Ratchathewi. Convenient stores such as 7-Eleven are plenty nearby.  We had chosen this place due to it's location, as the Phaya Thai Station is interconnected to the Airport Rail Link. We participated the Amazing Thailand Bangkok Marathon 2020 for a 10KM run and had to take the race kit at the Makasan Airport Link Station. The organiser also provided free shuttle to and from the race event site to the Makasan station which is the main reason why we decided to find an area near Phaya Thai. Mobility is very convenient if you decided to find halal food easily or even walk to Pratunam for some shopping.  I love the hostel settings and ambience. It's quiet, cosy. It has a spacious common area and it has a dining area that you are able to use. Simple breakfast such as toast, cereal, banana and coffee/tea are provided free flow from 8:30am to 10:30 am or so. We had a small but cosy and functionally designed room for two. They make use of the space with a cosy double bed on top like a bunk bed concept and a single long sofa below that could also be used to for a comfy nap.  The room has a balcony and they conveniently placed hooks if you need to hang your clothes outside. Although the room doesn't have any closet, there are also hooks and hangers provided that you can use for your clothes. It also has a small built in table and stool. A friend of mine stayed at the female dorm for eight and she mentioned that it is also spacious and cosy. In and out are anytime as long as you take the door access with you.  A note for caution / improvements - The hostel does not have any lift. So if you are placed at the top most floor i.e. the 3rd floor, carrying a big heavy luggage would be a struggle. The staircase is also steep.
