Loved my stay! The hostel is conveniently located near the train station that takes you to the airport. The room was super comfy. The mattress was firm and so so good, my favorite in years of staying in hostels hehe. Staff are super nice. And they even provide a beautiful breakfast every day. I will definitely stay there again if I'm ever back in BKK.

Perfect Location! ”

I had a wonderful 2 night stay here. The location is PERFECT if you’re looking for a place that’s walking distance from the shopping malls of Siam. If you prefer the BTS subway, it’s a few minutes to the station and one stop away! The host is so nice, the food is decent, and the rooms are nice! Plenty of hangout area if you need a place to work as well. Definitely recommend.

The location is good. It's near the Phaya Thai train station. It's also secured because you'll be given a key card that you need to use each time you enter the hostel and your room. However, I was surprised that there's a deposit equivalent to my one-night stay. So, make sure you have some extra money. It will be returned once you surrender the key card. The staff is not so friendly. I also didn't get to have my breakfast but that's because I left at 7am and they only serve it at 7:30am. Good thing 7/11 is just near so I was able to have my breakfast. The room wasn't that big. It's just literally a bed so there's not much space to move around. There's also a leak above my bed where the storage area is located. I only noticed it when I was about to leave. I got my suitcase and it was wet. Good thing it was made of a hard case not a cloth. Otherwise, my things would be all wet.

Suatu hari saya tanpa sengaja ninggalin kunci di dlm kamar dgn ac menyala, dan waktu saya balik ke hostel kunci udh ga ada di slot nya, staff tersebut bilang dia ga tau dimana kuncinya (katanya hilang) which is impossible hilang karena kuncinya dalam kamar, dan saya lihat kamar sudah bersih berarti housekeeping pasti simpen kuncinya. Lalu dengan JUTEK PARAH dia kasih kunci saya dan bilang utk jangan tinggalin lagi. Wow what a drama queen. I like this hostel, all good, breakfast good, all fine. The drama queen not so much. Thanks

Excellent budget accommodation. Made our stay in Bangkok more enjoyable.”

Travelled with my cousin and stayed at a Private Double for 2 with ensuite for 4 nights. I wanted a place that's clean, convenient and affordable and Diff Hostel met my expectations plus more. Firstly, the room was basic but clean. A bit cramped if you have big bags but the size and photos are as described. The toilet and shower was spacious though. Location was key. Just a short 10 min. walk from the Phaya Thai ARL and BTS station. Beats taking a cab and avoiding traffic to/from the airport. Also walking distance to Platinum Mall and 15-20min. walk or 2 BTS stops to Siam Area. Breakfast was simple but tasty and adequate. Best of all, the people running the place were some of the nicest people I've met during my visit. One of the owners, Gift, was always around, friendly and accommodating, always ready to help with recommendations and directions. A special shout out also to Aom, her kindness and seeing her smile was always a good start to my day. Had a wonderful stay. Will be back :)
