BEAT. Warii Hostel @ Chaophraya River

Ten times better than I expected! First off, shoes aren't allowed upstairs, which keeps the environment super clean. For the price, it's incredible value. Towels and toiletries are all provided and very clean. The bathroom is right by the entrance, which is super convenient. There's even a lounge area and a balcony with a river view. It's so much better than places back home. I regret not booking more nights, haha!

The neighborhood is awful, smells like fish. I think even the taxi driver was scared when he arrived. This was my first time in a hostel. The bedding was clean, the air inside was fresh, and the staff were polite. I asked for an early check-in, and they accommodated me without extra charge because I really needed to sleep. It was comfortable to sleep, and there were no drunkards or unruly people, just young and decent guests. A bed for one night cost 500 rubles, which is perfect just for sleeping.

Great views and a very clean room. All the amenities were there. My only small complaint is the lack of parking, but it's not a long walk from the temple. Overall, I was impressed.

Clean room..beautiful view overlooking the Chao Phraya River..convenient location, and there are cute cats around.

Overall, it was a pretty good experience. The only downside was the lack of an elevator, so I had to climb six flights of stairs, which was quite a workout. Also, the air conditioning was turned off for a few hours, which wasn't ideal. However, the common areas were great, and you could see the sunset over the Chao Phraya River.
