    Exceptional”

    The location is great. It is near the bus terminal, train station, night market, and Central Plaza. People can easily find a tuk tuk to go anywhere. If you don’t want to spend extra money, free bikes are also provided. The staff are friendly and introduced thoroughly stay rules and some recommended tourist attractions to us when we first arrived. Some local tours are also provided with an extra charge. We called a taxi to go to Wat Pa Phu Kon and Wat Pha Tak Suea, with a price of 2500 baht. These two places are very far from central Udon, so we think the price is okay. The room is clean and comfortable. Wifi is not good in the room, but okay in the lobby. Free breakfast (toasts with jams, coffe, and milo) are included. Unfortunately at the second night, some other guests made a lot of noises, which made us hard to sleep. Except for this, we had a good time overall during the stay.

    Great property, but listing needs amendment.”

    It’s a new property, and the potential is writ large. Affable bloke running it, and good cleaning staff. The only reason that I am less than impressed with this property is that I booked a “Deluxe room with private bathroom”, which according to the the Agoda listing promised “City views”. My room did not have city views. It didn’t even have a window. Truth in advertising guys. If you want to offer windowless rooms, then list them as such. And the price should reflect that when compared to a standard room with a window. So apart from feeling claustrophobic the whole time, I like Udon Backpackers. Just wish they listed honestly.

    Cheap and worth the money ”

    I love the facilities , unique, clean, beautiful common area In the other hand if you rent a private room, there is only keycard. I’m not sure after certain hours there will be no receptionist , and you will need to key card to open the main gate. Which mean you have to be together at all time after late hours . If one person is sleeping in the room and fell asleep, you are most likely will be locked out. I think if you are solo travel this is the place for you. This place is closer to everything, restaurants, shopping center, outdoor markets . Have fun staying guys

    Great staff”

    When we checked in, the staff member spent about ten-fifteen minutes telling us about all the things to do in the city! He had maps and pictures on his phone and was really helpful. The inside of the hostel is very nice, the bunks are clean and quiet and offer plenty of privacy. I got a better night’s sleep there than my bed at home! The only downside - and its kind of a big one - is it’s very open air. There are balconies/terraces with no doors or screens and the bathroom had a giant window with no glass or screen - so there are TONS of mosquitoes everywhere. Not in the bunk rooms thankfully, but literally everywhere else they’re everywhere.

    Highly recommend this hotel . Central location and very helpful staff ”

    The hotel was close to everything I wanted and the staff was very helpful with advice on where to go and what to see . I had free use of a mountain bike to explore the city . The hotel itself is very clean and tidy , I liked the modern concrete feel with modern lighting . My room was clean and fitted with a flat screen TV ideal for plugging in my HDMI cable. The shower was large hot and powerful. I will definitely return to this hotel in the future.

Install more hangers or bars on the wall at the toilets. Should put shoe rack, and ask customers to put their smelly shoe outside the dorm.
