BRB Hostel Bangkok Silom

The pillows need to be more comfortable. The pillows are thin.

the location

the staff not friendly and the so got many ants!!

nice clean comfy bed

bathroom and toilets are mixed even though the sign says clearly it's either for men or women only, at different floors

Good location and clean

Already reviewed, I booked a 3rd night because I wanted an extra night in Bangkok and no question as to where I would stay because I would pick here everytime :) friendly staff, clean cosy bed in cubical style and private an location is fantastic

Nothing for me it is perfect place to stay in Bangkok

Good location

Stairs ...need a lift

Die Lage war gut.

Das Zimmer war nicht sauber. Es hatte im Badezimmer Schimmel. Es hatte überall kleine Ameisen und Fliegen und in der Dusche tote Fliegen. Der Abfluss hat nach der Benutzung der Dusche extrem gestunken. Das Bett ist hart wie ein Brett. Die Luft ist katastrophal in Zimmer, keine Frischluftzufur. Keine Zimmerreinigung. Wir haben unseren Abfall selber nach unten gebracht und nach Toilettenpapier gefragt. Wir wurden an 2 Abenden geweckt, weil jemand um halb 1 in der Nacht geduscht und dann 20min die Haare geföhnt hat. Kann das Personal nichts dafür, aber es gab auch keine Instruktion oder Anweisung um welche Uhrzeit man ruhig sein soll.

I love this place so friendly and clean and was nice to be remembered from my trip 2 years ago, as I solo female traveller I felt safe at all times. The staff are friendly welcoming and helpful and I adore beautiful cats outside :) also the gentleman often found outside I’m not sure if he owns the cats but he is very nice and friendly too, everyone always smiling. The dorms are clean and cosy cubical style, I have stayed in a private room before and it was just as clean and very spacious. Great price and location my go to place each time I return to Bangkok. Maybe see you again next year :)

Nothing to dislike about the property, I did catch a man 3 times from the dorm across from the ladies shower room/toilets using the women’s bathroom despite sign saying women only, for me this is a minor annoyance as men pee on the seat but for some women this could be unpleasant getting out the shower to find a man stood there.

La ubicación

Habían malos olores, para pagar con tarjeta como en muchos lugares de Tailandia cobran un extra del 3%, a la recepcionista se le olvido cobrarlo y luego tuve que volver a pagar ese 3% aparte lo que significó una doble comisión del banco por el cambio, no fue mucho pero no corresponde.

מיקום מעולה,

ריחות פחות נעימים בכניסה, המזרון קשה מאוד מאוד

Good ideal location in Bangkok, easy access to night markets and night life

The bed was rock hard like concrete and the reception area absolutely stunk of rotten eggs all day everyday

It's cheap and it gives free towels. Good location.

I would not recommend this place. It's old needs major renovation. Although beds are clean the walls and woodwork are old, paint coming off, doesn't feel homey. Staff not friendly, but that's not their main problem.

The location was good. I think I cannot expect much from it for the value of money but I was still a bit shocked .

The first receptionist was extremely rude, didn’t want to help us with anything, the other one was really nice. The mattress was extremely hard, it would be more comfortable if I would be sleeping on the floor. The room has no windows? Would not recommend.

Bed size

ไม่ชอบเลย

ไม่ปลอดภัย มีคนขึ้นไปทะเลาะกันบนที่พัก

Super Lage!Alles vor der Tür.

Der Eingang ins Treppenhaus mit den ganzen Schuhen ist ja ne einzige Katastrophe.Alles so eng und es stinkt extrem.Die Zimmertüren fallen extrem laut immer zu.

La ubicación. Estaba muy cercana al bts y al subway. Además del parque lumphini. tenían la opción de guardar maletas.

La cama era dura, el dormitorio no tenía ventana, el aire acondicionado no funcionaba al 100%

Location

Smelled

Location location location! Perfect for our stay in Bangkok for exploring! Centre of Silom road! Staff were kind and helpful!

The bed was as hard as nails. Honestly like sleeping on concrete. Maybe it was the room we booked but not good at all. Asked staff for new room and we’re not accommodating due to us booking economy room and wanted us to pay extra

Gute Lage

-die Gerüche

La ubicación, la limpieza, el personal y la relación calidad-precio!

En principio pedí una habitación con dos camas individuales y volví a disfrutar de la habitación 201 como el año pasado con mi hija pero esta vez con mi amigo Loren 🤣

Good location, ideal for a 1 - 2 night stop over in Bangkok.

Private rooms were very small with no windows at all. Bed is incredibly hard and my mattress protector had mould on it.

Pure Veg . Food not available in bangkok,, launuage is problem very few people can speak english. This I don't like

It's so so

The location is good

The room is no windows, it’s so dark

Excellent location. Comfortable firm beds. Before checking in and after checking out we could stay in the common areas and use the kitchen. Staff is helpful and respectful. There are games like cards and monopoly. There is a coin based washing machine and a dryer (though unfortunately no detergent). The common areas is nice to hang around, though the atmosphere isn’t really social.

It was too cold in the room, had to complain about this multiple times before it was fixed. It is expected we walk bare foot in all areas, even the toilets, but it is not clean. It was kind of disgusting to walk barefoot on wet bathroom/toilet floors with hair strands all over. Also, as each floor only has a female or male bathroom, men were using female bathroom and toilet frequently. Personally I don’t care if a man sees me walking out of the shower, but the mess they leave (not flushing, urine stains on the floor, lifted toilet seat) was disgusting. The hostel should install a fine for those who use the wrong toilets/bathroom. Also, the urinals in the male toilets were stinking horribly, and the bathroom doors are always open. I would suggest cleaning the bathrooms/toilets more than once a day and putting deodorizing/cleaning blocks in the urinals to eliminate the stench. The entire floor was stinking most of the times due to this. Imagine urine stench combined with hot humid air (the hallways aren’t air conditioned) while climbing stairs 🤮 . Also, the ground- and 1st floor always smelled bad like a male changing room because people leave their sneakers outside the lockers as there aren’t enough lockers and this area is not ventilated.

เดินทางสะดวก มองหาง่าย ใกล้ร้านสะดวกซื้อ

ห้องพักควรมีกระดาษทิชชู่ ภายในห้องบ้าง ฝักบัวอาบน้ำ น้ำไหลน้อยมากห้องกลางควรซ่อม และห้องน้ำผู้หญิงยังมีผู้ชายแอบมาใช้

I’m not sure if there are fire exits in the facilities.

The deposit refund system.

Location

Kitchen

Location-wise, especially in Songkran Festival, the location is very very veryyy good. It's like only a 5-10 minute walk from Sala Daeng station. There's also a bank across the street incase you ran out of cash. A 7-11 can also be found near the hostel. The bed is very comfy and I always had a goodnight sleep during my stay.

Our room (the 4 bed mixed bedrooms) is located technically in the 5th floor (though the room is room 402). There's no elevator / lift so if you are someone with arthritis, it is not good for you. The stairs are also narrow. I don't like the bathroom (common bathroom for shared beds) in the 5th floor since the shower area is very small. I'm only like 5'4ft and I'm still having a hard time in the shower. No hangers or like a cabinet to place your things on (especially soap and towels and dry clothes). During my stay, there were so many lgbtqia+++ chinese people and they are somewhat annoying for me. They are throwing the tissue in the toilet despite the big notice of "do not throw your tissue in the toilet". If you are into those kinds of people, then this place would be good for you.

It is located in the center of Silom Road. Near saladaeng BTS station, so it is very good. The room is clean, the bath room is clean. And the staff is so friendly

So cozy, clean. The staff are friendly.

No

The hostel is nice located close to Dala Deang station. It's clean and my single room was nice. i liked how the room was made, painting on the wall, nice lights and a table. The private bathroom was also very big in comparison to the hostel. I got a lot of space

As with a lot of hostels, I don't like the way they store the shoes, this area is always messy and smelly. But it's a hostel thing, it's not specifically different here but also not much better than in others. I didn't like that I didn't have a window in the room and that it was not mentioned.

The communal areas and the dormitory's were clean. Staff were friendly. It was nice enough for the money you pay.

The mattress was like a laying on a brick. The shoe area downstairs was very messy, no one actually put their shoes away in the cupboards which caused an awful smell.

It was a good Hostel for some nights

Cleanliness

Good location

The staff were really helpful, as I had to check in late at night and wake them up, but they were still so friendly. The facilities were basic but clean, and what you would expect for the price. The location has good access to main areas and local shops around it.

The bed is rock hard, you can here everything including when people open and close the doors and are in the bathroom, and unfortunately there is a pernament smell due to the rule where you have to take off your shoes and leave them at the end of the corridor.

The staff is kind, and the room is clean.

We need to put the room card in to get the electric, it’s kinda inconvenient.

Great location, close to BTS station and only a short walk to the metro. Night market nearby and 7 eleven is very close too. For a hostel it did the job but I probably wouldn’t stay more than 3 nights.

No windows in our room made it feel a bit claustrophobic. Beds are huge but a little too hard. If you’re a light sleeper it’s probably not the place for you as it’s a hostel a lot of people come and go in the corridor middle of the night being inconsiderably loud but that’s not the hostel’s fault. It was a little frustrating they couldn’t accept card payment, we have used that card for other hotels and in shops so it was just this particular hostel.

Lit très très dure, chambre très petite, pas de fenêtre, aucune insonorisation, prix très chère comparer à d’autres hôtels que j’ai fait et qui propose une gamme très supérieur et moins chère.

Rooms are clean and comfy! Lockers are big enough to store a small size luggage and 1 backpack. Staff are so nice and accommodating.

Not enough storage for shoes on the lobby.

Locations and Unique

Nothing

The place has a great location with easy access to everything.

The only thing that displeased was the bed, it has a very hard mattress (very hard like stone) I had difficulty resting properly.

All

No have

Good location

Not too expensive

Bed is big, comfy and curtains give privacy. Good toilets, nice chill out area. Great location.

Aircon too cold.

The air conditioning is very very noisy and you can’t turn it off. The beds are really hard like sleeping on the floor

The hostel was in a good location; at the end of a quiet street but in a lively area. There were plenty of shops and restaurants in the area and, importantly, a good launderette 100 metres away. Very good for transport connections from both airports and Ekkamai bus station (to Ko Samet). My room was not large, but good enough, and clean. The shower was good. Good wifi. Even though it was by the stairs it was not noisy. I would stay here again.

No lift so I had to carry my suitcase to the 2nd floor. But that wasn't too bad, and it is a hostel fter all!

Location

Don’t have elevator,big problem carrying luggage,nobody there to help you,I will never stay this place again

When i came to check in i got up to the room and the room was full. Someone else was sleeping in my bed. The receptionist walked back and forth talking to someone because she couldn’t understand what I was saying and they didn’t know what to do. Keep in mind this was 1AM at night and I just came from a flight. All I wanted was to sleep. They got me another bed where there was no light working and couldn’t provide me with a room key or locker key. The deposit for the key itself was 500baht and you had to pay everything by cash. When I checked out I got 120baht in return for the problems.

No windows in the room!

Clean room

Soundproof system. very Noisy.

Staff and location. It's a very nice place and they have a kitchen so you can make your own food. They have a few spaces for work downstars if you're a digital nomade. Location! A few minutes to skytrain and shoppingmalls. Supermarket around the corner. And close to Lumpinipark to.

The beds are hard to be honest. I would love if they changed the matresses.

perfecto

nothing

Quite clean in general. Good air-conditioning. Small guest pantry is good that I could make a tea myself and BJ use the fridge.

To me, the pillow is too thin and the bed is a bit hard. It would be good if they remove the urinals in the male toilet as they can be smelly... since some guests may forget to flush after use.. Actually, there are enough toilet bowls inside the toilet already.
