Once Again Hostel, Bangkok

Once Again Hostel was perfectly located in old town Bangkok, very close to Chinatown, Wat Arun Ratchawararam Temple and several other incredible monuments and palaces. However, it also felt very cozy and off the beaten path. I felt dropped into a food paradise and would definitely stay here again. The staff was awesome and helpful. The dorms were clean and felt private, safe, and secure.

I have mixed feelings with this hostel. I really like how they designed the hostel,love it! The bed is comfy,bathroom is clean and nice. Late night like Friday night and Saturday night can be loud from other people getting drunk from the walk way. The location is good enough if you dont mind walking to places or taking a bus,tuk tuk or taxi to go anywhere else ( I prefer the hostels that are more convenient like close to BTS or MRT so I dont have to deal with the traffic and scamming taxi/tuk tuk drivers ). Over all its a great experience,I would recommend anyone stay here to see way of Thai life and surrounding attractions.

+++ nice place for very reasonable price 20 min walk from khaosan road and 10 min golden mount awesome bed in dorm! big and comfort also our dorm has balcony, it doesn'n have any view but you can dry your clothes there :) great roof top terrace, it looks like nobody knows about it so every evening we stayed there alone with this perfect view and beer :) lobby just doesn't look like hostel's lobby but like hotel - very beautiful and stylish --- water heating works not in every shower cabin also they are still in renovation fase so there might be some smell of paint or glue in the corridor but they are fixing it pretty fast

I was looking forward to my stay here, I heard about the hostel via word of mouth on my travels in Thailand and I was impressed by their website and image. Overall though I would say that personally (for me) I was disappointed. Where it excels is in social activities and the location is ok, but once you get a little used to Bangkok getting around is not so bad. I had previously stayed in other accommodation in the city with less expense and higher standards and facilities (eg included cooked breakfast, immaculate bathrooms). Extra charges here such as towel rental were a surprise to me. The staff were very nice, the vibe is good, the location fine. I missed a window/ natural light in the superior dorm and felt like some finishing touches were missing from the place.

PROS The staff is very resolutive and helpfull. The location is super close to temples, khao san road, and Thipsamai ( delicious Pad Thais) You need to give a deposit of 200baths per towel and 100baths per key. The breakfast is basic but for the price that you paid is very good. Beds are confortable and clean.
