Excellent location and facilities”

Express hostel is just around the corner of the BTS Surasak (S5). Various delicious street food abound in the area with 7-11 a few steps away. We got the deluxe family room at 4th floor which is very spacious for a group of 3 adults and 3 kids. The hostel is relatively new so still very clean but the beds are on the hard side but comfortable. Take note that there is an elevator which the other hostel lacks. Coin operated washer and dryer is available also at the 4th floor with complimentary snacks and nescafe coffee vendo machine at the lobby. The staff are helpful and cheerful. We’ll definitely stay here again when we return to Bangkok.

Express definitely surpassed my expectation level. I am glad I made the booking with Express. We stayed at superior family room. It was very comfortable for us. Walking distance to BTS Surasak made it even more convenient for us to go places. 7E is just next door. Family Mart is located next to the BTS station. It is definitely a hotel-like hostel. Kudos to all the staff for taking good care of the place. Will definitely stay here again. Thank you very much Express!!

Nice hostel ”

Consider you are in the capital, the price was OK. The hostel was very very clean. We had a good double room, with a bathroom and a small balcony. Everything was fine, only just the bed was extremely hard. The hostel has a washing machine and dryer, which is quite nice. The staff was very nice and helpful. We made a short video about the hotel, please check if you interested. https://youtu.be/Om-id0JpquE

I stayed here for about a week. The staffs were very helpful! They explained to us how to go around and outside bkk and booked a taxi for us to go back to the airport. Room was spacious and really clean! they cleaned it everyday (by request). The bed was quite hard but still can sleep well. They serve breakfast (toast and complimentary coffee machine). And they have elevator! No worries if you have big luggage. Located just 5 min walk to BTS surasak and there's 7-11 beside the building. Me and my friends will definitely comeback here if we go to bkk again!

Awesome place for the money, awesome staff”

First off, clean place, and staff Is super friendly staff any time of day. Stayed here for 3 nights for a first timer in Bangkok. Location is somewhat ideal; close to BTS, saphin taksin pier, Bangrak food center. Grabs never more than 150 baht. I had an ant problem, as our private room had a door that was seemingly a smoke area. Stuffed a towel in the door gap on the bottom, but some still got through. Dorm/mixed rooms looked super clean. Got a pool table, books, Jenga, and free toast/coffee, utensils, microwave, etc in a laid back lobby. Used the area a lot. Overall, Bangkok is a cool city and I highly recommend this place.
