There are self-service washing machines, which cost 30 baht to wash clothes by coins, and 30 baht to dry clothes by coins. Laundry detergent costs 20 baht per small bag. The hostel does not have an elevator.
Advantages: Good environment, large public area in the lobby on the first floor. There is a rooftop where you can hang out your clothes to dry, chat and watch the stars at night, and you can see the lights of the temple from the rooftop.
The shower room and toilet are together, separated by gender, not mixed for public use, which is quite private. An electric fan is also installed in the women's bathroom, which is a detail I like, as it provides good ventilation and keeps you from getting hot. Muslim girls can use the female bathroom without worry. The women's bathroom has 2 toilets and 2 showers.
There are also public toilets in the common area.
Disadvantages: The staircase is poorly designed, it is a straight staircase with small steps. You need to pay attention to safety when going up and down the stairs because there is no elevator. It is easy to fall when carrying a suitcase upstairs.
The location of the youth hostel is a bit remote. It takes 34 minutes to walk to the train station and 25 minutes to go to the Chinatown food night market. The youth hostel is right on the side of the road, and there are no restaurants or convenience stores around. It is recommended to buy some the day before so that you can eat it the next morning.
The sound insulation for four girls is average. When I slept on the lower bunk, I could hear any noise from the door opening and closing in the next room.
There are a lot of ants and small bugs on the girls' sink, and it looks yellow. It would be better to renovate and replace the bathtub with a plastic or stainless steel one.
The bathroom door is designed incorrectly. I am thin, and I feel that there is not enough space and it is crowded whether I close (open) the bathroom door. Fat girls would probably feel uncomfortable and get hit by the door when going to the bathroom. The correct door direction is to pull from the outside (push from the inside)
There is no storage shelf in the bathroom to put the shampoo bottles and shower gel bottles, so they can only be placed on the floor. Although the hostel provides shower gel, not everyone likes to use hostel items, and some people bring their own personal items.
The curtains on the bed are made of white gauze, which looks nice but does not block out light. Even if the lights in the room are turned off at night, the room will still be bright if the bedside lamps of other beds are turned on. So the white gauze on this bed is just for decoration.
