Ekanake hostel

Das Hostel ist extrem sauber, hell und gut ausgestattet. Wir waren im privaten Family-Room aber auch die Gemeinschaftsbereiche sahen sehr sauber und ordentlich aus. Die Familie, die das Hostel leitet ist sehr freundlich. Der Blick aus dem Familienzimmer in Richtung Fluss ist unglaublich schön, man sieht viele Tempel und Hochhäuser in der Ferne (auch vom Badezimmer aus).

Der Balkon liegt leider direkt neben einer viel befahrenen Straße, weshalb es recht laut ist. Die Betten sind recht hart, falls man weichere Matratzen gewöhnt ist. Außerdem war das Waschbecken leider verstopft, was in Asien aber gelegentlich vorkommen kann. Wir sind nur eine Nacht geblieben, aber die Besitzer versprachen, sich sofort darum zu kümmern. Sonst alles super ;)

The location is very good.

The common area seem to tight and hot.

Sooo clean ! Friendly staff , ac feels amazing , will be staying here again !!

Clean, comfortable and quiet

Very clean and comfortable beds, with proper duvets and pillows. Location was great for Pinklao area and the southern bus station. A quiet hostel - perfect for a break from the busier hostels. Coffee in the downstairs café is really good. There is also a big 7/11 nearby. Staff are very friendly and helpful. They helped with introducing me to the area and finding ATM, clothes stores, shops etc. I also forgot my electric toothbrush and the staff very promptly kindly posted it to my next location without any issues!!

Huge wide dorm beds, good bedding, though mattresses very hard. Light, plug, A/C - top. Electronic dorm chip, towel 20 Baht. Coffeeshop downstairs with very good Western type coffee. Very friendly staff. Dorm windows good, despite the heavy highway traffic and all other sounds it is tolerable. Nice neighbourhood, close to river ferry to city center and (food) market close by (warning: it closes early around 6pm). Supermarket 20 meters away. Fairly close/well located to Southern Bus Terminal.

No social hostel, no real common area to meet people. Maybe in the coffeeshop but that also functions as a printing shop. Can't say I care for the fumes there. I sat in the kitchen sometimes, but wasn't really sure I was supposed to as staff was also there. There is a camera right in the ladies dorm which filmed me while I was changing in front of my bed. I realised this too late (nobody told me) and also that there is a specific changing room area inside the dorm with a curtain. There is another camera in front of the dorm coming from the showers. I did not like that. I am a female solo traveller and I would feel MORE safe without a camera IN the dorm. My Thai wasn't good enough to inquire about the reason behind these cameras.
