Clean and comfy hostel near to Ari BTS
Although its a hostel, the accommodation is really clean and well-kept. They washed the bathrooms and throw out the trash everyday unlike some hostels that I have been to. Love their breakfast with toasted thick toast and yogurt. I actually asked for a second helping on the remaining 3 days of my stay. They have nice hammocks, bean bags on level 1 for chilling and a nice air-conditioned room for playing games or watching tv on second level. The accommodation is container style and hence, at times, you'll hear heavy footsteps on the metal flooring. It is pretty close to the Ari BTS, which is about 8 to 10 minutes of walk.

Stay in this Cute Hostel
We got a room/loft with a private bath ... nice and clean. Breakfast was good. It was also a good time to meet other guests from other countries. Staff were helpful. Our emails were answered promptly which helped us sort logistics. Location quite accessible. We would stay here again.

Hostel com proposta sustentavel interessante. Quartos sao dentro de container e ficamos em um privativo. Ponto negativo fica por conta do banheiro compartilhado que não era bem limpo.

Great staff, great location, a bit stuffy
Staff was great and the room was clean but because the bed was near the ceiling it got very hot during the day even with the AC. Also for some reason the room smelt a bit like the sewers for a couple days.

Our first hostel experience and we loved it. I was I afraid everyone might be younger and wild, but it’s a ride age group mix. Great way to meet people, or do your own thing. Thank you for having us Yard family!

Special Place!
This was one of my all-time favorite hostels - and I stay at many! As soon as you enter The Yard, you are welcomed as family. There is such a sense of community; everyone having breakfast or beers in the yard, laying on the hammock, taking the free yoga class. The rooms and bathrooms were very clean and well laid out. I loved the indoor/outdoor vibe. Great AC in the rooms. Loved how environmentally-friendly they are as well. Fell in love with the Ari neighborhood! Be among real locals and also many cutesy coffee shops and even rooftop bars within walking distance. Free bikes to borrow to explore. My only complaint was that my stay was too short! I will definitely stay again next time I visit SE Asia.

I stayed at the yard when passing through Bangkok and now recommend it to anyone planning on visiting the city. Check in was easy (even at 2 am!), the beds are extremely comfortable, the bathrooms are great, and the staff are lovely. Looking forward to my next stay!

Great home garden feel in a quiet neighbourhood!! It's a minute walk out to the main road with lots of coffee shops and convenient stores within walking distance. Washrooms were spacious enough and everything was very clean. They also serve free breakfast! Thanks Mr Turtle!

We had an amazing time at the Yard. The staff and guests are super friendly—we made some good friends. The location is great too, very close to the sky train and the neighborhood is an up and coming spot with hipster coffee shops and clothing stores.

Great place
Nothing to complain about here, near to station (Ari) so easy to get to and from town. Great staff, cool place, quiet but social so very easy to meet people. Bar is cheap and good for a bit of preing for the town and meeting people. Good for people who aren't obsessed with Koh San Road, but still cheap to get back at night etc.

I've stayed here on 3 separate occasions and have loved every moment spent at the yard! I keep coming back despite the billions of possible accommodation choices in the city. It's clean, friendly, has a great atmosphere, and is in an ideal location for me. No complaints

Great Experience
Only planned on staying for one day... three days later I left very satisfied and ready to continue on my trip! Pros: - Easy trip to/from the airport (use the shuttle) - Very quiet at night - Great food around - Staff are extremely friendly, language being no issue - Easy to book trips of all kinds (islands and day-trips) Cons (kind of): - Not a Khao San Road, hidden away from the sightseeing and lines of street vendors (good or bad, depending on what you want) Great experience! Oh, and they have their own cool water glasses...

The Yard means Family
Thank you som and Som. You are the best hosts that anyone could ever ask for. I instantly fell in love with The Yard after my first day. I told my friends to book the same place. If all the 5 star reviews don't encourage you, I'm not sure what will! I met such great people who we've now become great friends and even traveled together in the country, given me tips and more. It really is a great place that will forever share a special place in my heart.

Great hostel to take a break in Thailand
청결도-샤워부스가 조금 냄새났지만 사실 별로 신경안쓰이는 수준. 그런데 이렇게 멋진 정원이 있는 곳에서 뭐가 문제입니까?? 아침에 이리도 개운하게 기상하는 것이 가능할 줄은 몰랐습니다. 해피 쏘해피. 냥냥펀치~~ 서비스-개최상 핵최상 그리고 팟카파오 딜리버리로 먹고싶다고 말씀드리고 꼭 시켜드세요 미쳤으니까 알싸하게 매운거 못 드시는 분들은 패스하세요. 무엇보다 직원분들 너무 친절해서 쏘 서윗. 마음이 찌르르. 편의시설-바로 주변에는 뭐 딱히 없지만 그런 맛으로 가는 느낌이기도 하고 코너 돌아서 나가면 택시타는 곳도 있고 스시집 카페 등등 터진 골목 나와서 괜찮음 위치-카오산 툭툭 및 택시로 약 20분 막히면 30분 예상, 걸어서는 1시간. 못걸어 갈건 아닌데 귀찮아서 툭툭탔음. 그래서 카오산은 질리게 가보셨다 하시는 분들, 낮에는 뭐 글이나 쓰고 밤에는 친구들 만나 냠냠 구워먹고 놀겠다 하는 분들 여기로 오세요 장기투숙에 좋은 느낌임. 저는 태국 초행이 아니라서 딱히 불만없었습니다. 그리고 저녁엔 주변에 맥주마실데도 있어요.

インスタ映えする美しい庭、清潔なシーツ、駅からも近くて便利です。 庭にはハンモックやクッションがあり、ホテルでまったりするだけでも雰囲気満点で癒されます。 ただし蚊が多いので、必ず虫除けグッズは必ず持って行きましょう。私はめちゃくちゃに刺されて後悔しました。 ◆部屋 最初にタオル1枚と水を飲み水用のボトルがもらえます。 ウォーターサーバーがあるので、飲み水はボトルに汲んで部屋に持って行ったりします。 タオルは有料で交換してもらえると思います(自分で洗っていたので私は交換せずでした)。 私は6人部屋のドミトリーを利用しましたが、シーツは毎日交換、とても清潔でした。1500円程でこのクオリティはかなりコスパ良い印象です。 ◆客層 バックパッカーの白人多め。 貧乏宿というわけではなく、アッパークラスの人が多い印象。 ◆スタッフ かなり愛想が良く、24時間常駐しています。 鈍っていますが英語が通じます。 ホテルの10メートル範囲に日本人が経営しているお茶漬け屋さんがあるので、困ったら話に行けるのは心強いポイントかと。 ◆注意点 ①ホテル内、周辺は物価高め 日本の代官山のような地域らしく、ホテル周辺のレストランはクオリティが高く値段は高めです。日本とほぼ価格変わらないです。 最寄りのアリ駅に行けば安いお店や出店いっぱいあります。 ②wifiやや弱し 夜になると繋がらなくなったりしました。心配な方は海外wifi持って行ったほうが安心です。 ③蚊が多い 何度も言いますが蚊が多いです。しかも強力なやつです。 駅に近いのでダウンタウンまですぐですし、とにかく雰囲気がいい‼︎ 個人的にはまた行きたいくらいお気に入りのホテルです。
