Urban Hostel Bangkok was an excellent private room with bathroom for a very reasonable price. The size of the room was fantastic, and the bed was very comfortable. I was grateful for the powerful AC too. It was also wonderful to have fresh bottled water provided by the hostel. I thought the building was clean and up to date. WiFi was decent, too. The staff was also friendly, and check-in was hassle-free. The only thing that was a downside for me was the location. It was a bit of a walk from the MRT station, and since it was my first time in Bangkok, I was unprepared for cutting across traffic (but I got used to it). You also have to walk a little ways to get to any convenience store. But otherwise, it's a wonderful hostel and I would definitely stay again.

Urban Hostel
Urban Hostel was a good spot to land after over 24 hours of travel from Detroit to Bangkok. Restful, friendly, clean, simple. Also in a non-touristy neighborhood - bonus.

It felt like home/family
This hostel is amazing. The workers are some of the most respectful and hard-working people I’ve come across. They were always eager to help with questions or issues, and they keep the place absolutely spotless! (You could eat off the floor). I won’t ever stay anywhere else in Bangkok.

It’s in a neighborhood that gives you the sensation you are a local. It’s pretty. It’s pretty close to the station.

Good location a few minutes from the ferry that will take you to all the sites and the train station that goes to Ayutthaya and close to Chinatown. Also not in the touristy area so food is much cheaper than near the big sites. If they are offering a private room with 2 bunk beds it means you will be getting the whole 8 bed dorm room to yourself, it was very nice. Very clean, good air-conditioning.

Stay here! Great
Amazing location, sooo close to khao san road and great sights around. Staff was very helpful, AC was exceptional and the bathrooms were clean. Only downside would be that you can hear the music from khao san road up until 12 am maybe a little later..

A very good hostel. It's clean, pretty new and close to mrta station. Good wifi and breakfast available. The area is nice but very different, a lot of street food stands and they have hard beds

The hostel is really clean and comfortable. There is everything you need : Washing machine, plates, fridge, ... The common areas are spacious and make you feel at home. The owner was really kind : He saw me on the way with my backpack and gave me a ride to the hotel. That was really kind of him! I will definitively come back.

Great hostel, clean and friendly staff
I spent 8 nights at Urban Hostel in a private room. Very clean room, staff was friendly and the location is close to bus stops and main road. There is laundry on the 3rd floor, a drying rack and a communal fridge. Overall a pleasant stay and I would stay here again when I'm back in Bangkok.

Friendly and welcoming hostel, clean, fairly quiet
Good, value for money hostel. 5 mins walk from the river, MRT train 5 minute walk away, Patong night market 10 mins walk away, 7-11 3 mins walk away. Tasty street food just outside the hostel. Very friendly and welcoming staff (2 of them had good english too). A few different common areas to hang out in with a nice balcony area. Stayed in a private room which was clean and had a comfy shower. Overall, I would recommend for the price I paid.

Tout est ok mais...
Très bien situé, à deux pas du quartier chinois et de River City d’où partent plein de bateaux. Le personnel est accueillant, surtout l’employée du matin. Les chambres sont très correctes, climatisées (un peu trop...). Les sanitaires sont propres et spacieux. Seul petit hic, tous les services sont en supplément, jusqu’à la deuxième couverture pour ne pas finir en Miko dans le lit lorsque la clim est en forme... Mais sinon ok, le roof top est top.
