I stayed here twice recently and really loved it. It's a great place to come to if you want to meet a lot of friendly people (particularly solo travellers) away from the craziness of Ko San Road. Joy the owner is impressively running this place on her own and she's doing an excellent job. It's probably one of the cheapest... More

Amazing hostel. The atmosphere is very welcoming and Joy makes everyone feel at home. This is a really nice place to stay in Bangkok and I would suggest it. The wifi is good and available in the rooms. We stayed once in a private double with air con and it didn't get super cold but it was comfortable at night.... More

I stayed here for 3 nights, and quite enjoyed my experience. I believe you have to drop any western standards to enjoy this guesthouse. It is situated in an area with very few tourists, which makes for a great, authentic experience of Bangkok. Nevertheless, there is lots of shops and markets nearby and lots of great street food! The room... More

Our host Joy made this place special. Located in a calm Bangkok area near the skytrain, U-Baan ist a guesthouse which offers not much comfort, but one of the nices hosts we met during our travels. When you enter through the front door, you mostly find Joy sitting between her guests, she is always good for an advise and a... More

We stayed at U-Baan (she should rename "Joy's") several times. The rooms are simple and clean. Joy, the owner, is friendly, helpful and fun. She truly cares about her guests and creates a homey and welcoming environment. The location is in a quiet Bangkok neighborhood, which was perfect for us as we were living in the neighborhood rather than visiting.

We stayed with Joy 3 times during our several trips to Bangkok. The rooms are simple, clean and comfortable. The best part about U-Baan is Joy. She created a great atmosphere, always willing to help any traveller and always willing to offer assistance. As a result, the vibe at her guesthouse is really friendly and very much like a friend's... More

The host, Joy, is an absolute pleasure and a real laugh. The dorms are all spacious, clean and just what you need. The location is great - away from the manicness, just 5 mins to the rail, and its on on the main skytrain line for the main strips + attractions should you want to venture there.

We stayed here for 4 nights and would have stayed longer if Joy had room. We stayed in a 3 bed dorm and also in a double room. It's a great place - although a way out of the centre the sky train is really near. Joy who runs U-Baan is amazing and was the most wonderful host. Not only... More

i was there with two friends in a triple room and it was definitely one of the best places we stayed at! the hostel is a cosy place, and has a nice backpackers atmosphere. we were so glad to stay a bit far from the center and in a more local neighborhood as it made our experience much more interesting.....
