This guesthouse was inexpensive, close to lots of touristy spots in Bangkok and very close to the river, but relatively quiet. The rooms were simple but adequate and clean. The TV worked, the A/C worked, and the WiFi worked. The only complaint would be that you can only have WiFi for 2 hours, and only 1 person can be on... More

I read about this hotel in lonely planet and so I had good expectations! The room was $40 and was tiny with no space for luggage! The bathroom was clean but small! The room had wifi but only for two hours! And the air-con was terrible it didn't cool the room down at all! For $40 a night it should... More

I don't prefer to stay in Khaosan, because it is too noisy, but this location is away from the noise. It is short walking distance to everything though. The rooms a very basic, but they are clean. Internet is free, but very limited. They charge to leave luggage, which was dissappointing compared to other places in Khaosan. For what you... More

The location is excellent - close to the river for boat travel and very close to Kho San Road, as well as many other attractions. We were able to walk to many places. Great food across the street at KC Guesthouse, especially breakfast. There was no food available at Fortville as the cook had just had a baby. The internet... More

Stayed for 5 nights in late March, $32 USD/night.  I really wanted to like this place. What put me off is that the website advertises free wifi in the rooms but what I got was a code for one device to connect for up to 2 hours in a 24 hour period.  Additional wifi is 40THB for 2 hours.

A great place to stay, far enough away from the noise of Khoa San but close enough to enjoy the action. Less than five minutes walk to the Bars and stalls of Soi Rambrutti (so much better than the road). This place has a great bar on the roof with live music and decent food, and you can get proper...
