It is true what some of the previous reviewers said. This hostel caters to a specific kind of person. The kind of person I see as a Bob Marley loving, liberal, vegan, weed smoking hippie. I booked 3 nights in the dorm at 100 baht a night. I had paid for my whole stay in advance but I left after... More

I stayed here for 2 nights whilst travelling around the world. The thing that made me book here was the price and that it looked unique. Everyone was really friendly throughout my stay. The accommodation isn't 5* but what are you expecting? A group of us headed to khao san road in the daytime, really easy to get to. At... More

The place is very specific. It is one of the cheapest hostels in Bangkok and its location is quite comfortable - you don't need to spend much time to get to the center of the city. But the atmosphere inside is very specific. There are strange paintings everywhere right on the walls - both in the corridor and inside rooms.... More

I can see why people like it at The Overstay, when we turned up at midnight the party was thumping and we were made to feel welcome. The first words that came into our mind when we saw our room however was 'crack den', door didn't shut, mattress was dirty (and made from straw?!), the foot to the bathroom down... More

Comfort is a commodity of the old. The frail. The sullen retirees and dutiful temple-photographers, basking in the arrogance of the belief that said comfort should always be the undisputed status quo. In fact, it is not, nor was it ever. Comfort means retiring from discomfort, stepping back from the reality of the hard cold ground by erecting your personal... More

I came here with the intention of staying one night as a stepping stone to finding somewhere else and ended up staying a few weeks. In all fairness id originally planned to stay in the dorm but as I walked into the dark vandalised bar area and was taken through the building to the dorm I felt it would be... More

Oh - my - god! I have quite honestly never seen anything like it. My husband and I arrived late at night after searching for hours for the place. We had just arrived in Bangkok, but being seasoned travellers we know what to expect from a budget hostel. However, on my life, I never expectd this! They had no booking... More
