It did not look the pictures. The place is very small, had to walk up many stairs. The common area, kitchen and bathroom are dirty. The bed was clean, the a/c was fine. We stayed only a few hours just to rest before taking a trip.

Decent and clean accommodation

Its a decent space. The pods are spacious enough, bathtooms are clean. The only downside is the AC being switched off from 10 am to 6pm. So if you are travelling during summers, you might want to keep that in mind. But if its only the nights that you wanna spend here then its a good place to crash.

La cama muy cómoda, y tiene cortina así que tienes privacidad, en general se siente mucha privacidad en el hostal. Las instalaciones se ven nuevas y de buena calidad. El área común bien equipado con lavadora y secadora, cocineta, refrigerador, agua café y té gratis, e incluso área para fumadores... Yo tenía un resfrío y la chica de recepción me dio unas pastillas e incluso estuvo pendiente de cómo me sentía. Todo excelente.

バンコク、スクンビットでの一人旅の短期滞在に

ファーストクラスはベッドが広く快適だった。ベッドの下に鍵付きの荷物入れがあり、カバンが仕舞える。部屋の中にセーフティボックスもある。部屋の入り口にはキーカードがあり宿泊客以外は入れない。部屋の中でワイファィは良く繋がる。シャワー、トイレは故障している部屋もあったが、清潔だった。シャンプー、ボデイソープは備え付けてあるが、タオル、スリッパ等を持参したほうが良い。１階がフロント，２階から４階が客室、５階は休憩所、ベランダでコインランドリー、テーブルとソファー、テレビ、エアコン、流し、水とお湯の給水機、無料のコーヒー等が置かれている。ＢＴＳのプロンポン駅から近く、デパート、日系スーパー、日本食屋多し、ショピング、観光、ナイトライフ等の拠点に便利。

Good location and clean room and bathroom

We stayed at matchbox for 2 nights, it's a really good location less than a 5 minute walk to BTS (sky train) and 10 minutes to the subway (underground train) the staff weren't too helpful not a lot of English but they were still nice and let us keep our bags there and use the bathrooms after we had checked out as we were leaving til the evening. The beds were good and bathrooms were kept clean. Secure lockers under beds. Only down fall is they did let a group of about 10 people in at 5-6 am and they turned all the lights on, we did have a curtain to our bed but they still kept us up. I would stay here again though.

Still one of the best budget places

But no AC from 11am~6pm Still not the worst being in the expensive Japanese biz street with massage, K-TV, bars etc. The night staff is new and much better than the one last year. Although the safe box is still a little problem as you have to go downstairs to request. Wifi info is also only available in the front so be sure to ask for both wifi and safe box problems before you go upstairs as there is no elevator. The topfloor lounge is good for kitchen stuff but no kitchen rules yet as lots of food and drinks are in the fridge withoust the owners names.

ロケーションは最高です。

１日だけの宿泊でしたが、ＢＴＳ【プロンポン駅】からも歩いて5分~6分ですのでバンコク、スクンビット通り周辺で遊ぶのであれば問題ないです。また、通りは比較的人通りも多く特に危険とは感じませんでした。部屋については今回ファーストクラスのドミトリーをチョイスしました。ホテルの客のマナーは特に悪くありませんでしたが、時と場合によってはシチュエーションは変わるでしょう。スタッフ達も、親切で、チェックインの際には部屋まで案内してくれます。タバコがどこで吸えるとか、共有のキッチンスペース、シャワー室など、聞けばどこにあるか、どこで出来るか教えてくれます。ホテルも隣にセブンイレブンがあるので立地は解りやすいです。通りには、日本食、イタリアン、マッサージ店など数多くのお店が並んでいるので困ることはないかと思います。

清潔、（たまたまかもしれませんが、）静か。ネットも繋がった。

いわゆるカプセルホテルですが、清潔ですし、静かでした。遅く到着して1泊するだけ、もしくは寝に帰るだけなら、十分です。シャワーの時のタオルは有料なので、がっかりしないでください。 1階にコンビニもあるし、5回はフリースペースなので、仕事もそこでしました。 まわりも便利な地域です。

No elelvator to the 5th floor

Make sure you get the wifi password when checking inn as there is no password info on the wall or anywhere except at the front. The staff didn't know how to use the safe and took a while to settle in but it was clean and safe and fun as before. The AC gets turned off from 11 am to 6 pm. for saving energy and the rate was only about 400 bt so I can't complain.

2 nights in Bangkok

Hostel clean and tidy! Location very good, with a 7/11 and ATM literally next door and only a 5min walk to the local BTS stop and same walk to a shopping mall and restaurants. Staff all very friendly and welcoming, happy for us to leave luggage before check in and after check out. Kitchen facilities very good, fresh cold drinking water available for free. Luggage storage under bed more than accommodated our two big backpacks. Sleep was average but that was due to the other people in the room with us (eg. People taking calls all through the night, playing music after 10pm.), the AC was good in the kitchen but the beds get a little warm if you close your curtain over night. Would stay again if we were in the area though.
