They don't have breakfast, but I don't think it's a big deal because they're so close to everything and food is easily delivered to the hostel.

I really wish I could not give a good review so that I can keep this place to myself and not have to share it with others. But it would be doing Kars & team a complete disservice by not promoting his place. The coffee here is on point, the rooms are gorgeous, very antique, the aesthetic is beautiful and the place is quiet. How do I rate this any higher.

Friendly owner and authentic location in Chinatown. Cute cats around. Good air conditioning and a stylish place. Laundry service worked well.

Wonderful place to stay, definitely our favourite part of town. Such friendly owners and staff. Always so welcoming 😊 Photos are of the café at the Photohostel (great food and drink) and the local streets just outside.

I couldn't fill the bathtub. I would have loved to soak a bit after a day in the Bangkok heat. Also, while this didn't bother me personally, there didn't seem to be an elevator. The highest room is on the fourth floor, so I can imagine this could be a negative for some people. I do have to add that while I was checking in, they did spontaneously take my bags to my room.

Charming hostel and cafe in the alleys near Chinatown. It blends a classic and a modern industrial look quite well. I like that it reflects the owner's passion, photography. It gives it a personal touch. The room was great. A good bed, well decorated and spacious. Being within a few minutes walk from both the metro (Hua Lampong - Blue Line) and River Boats (Marine Department - Orange flag) makes it very well connected. The staff was friendly and helpful. I was asked spontaniously if I needed anything for my room. I didn't, but it's nice to be asked anyway. Even the owner seemed like a great guy, despite being Dutch! (Please do not take this seriously, this is just some friendly Netherlands-Belgium rivalry). Seriously though, he was ready to answer any question I had with a smile, and I really appreciate it.

Nothing.

The location was brilliant - in a very interesting and fun part of Bangkok. The hostel is in a beautiful, old renovated building and has great food, super comfy beds and helpful staff. Great artwork throughout and loads of god food options close by.

Going out to get breakfast wasn’t always convenient.

Great area to be in. Don’t be put off by the back alley of car parts, everyone is very friendly and it is a nice place to be. Good access to the river buses. Wooden bath in our room was fun.

I have stayed in Photohostel with my family (kids 4 and 7 years old) and we loved our stay there. We had a room with 2 bunk beds and a private bathroom. The room is spacious and very clean. The place has a beautiful interior.. When we arrived we were greeted by the very nice owner who showed us the place, the room and how to get to the nearby attractions. The Chinese night market is within a 10 min walk.

Late check in and communication. Bags secure for the day after checkout and good advice on what to see and how to get around Bangkok.

A very special place in an artistic area. Staff was super friendly and I felt very welcome. The Hostel is in a very local area, 10 min walking from chinatown. Recommend this place, if you are looking for a special experience a bit outside of all the tourist areas!

No lift The stairs is quite steep and is very inconvenient to carry luggage up or down especially with big luggage on the 3rd floor Do not like the environment surrounding the hotel which is full garage

The decorations is nice and room is quite spacious and is well equipped and is within walking distance to Chinatown Value for money

A great hostel. Great location. Love the feel and decor of the room.

Fantastic stay! Really comfortable, very well equipped, super clean rooms. Great location in China Town. Easy walk to river transportation. Kars, the owner, and his staff are super- really friendly and helpful with great recommendations and tips. Café is excellent. Highly recommended!

It was hard for grab driver to find the location but Kars was super nice owner told us to pin the location to or from Thai Sathit Condominium (you have to use the back door of Photohostel) if you wanted to go somewhere else by grab. About 10 mins walk to Chinatown. If you like to walk at night (the road is quite lonely) but once you reach Chinatown, it comes alive! There was no lift. Only staircase. Not suitable for senior citizens unless they are healthy and active persons so the staircase is not a big problem.

Very unique hotel. I hope in the future, TV will be provided in a room.

No complaints, we were very happy with our experience

Great location, close to Chinatown and Metro. Friendly owner and staff. Great coffee and food available in cafe below accommodation. Didn't take long to familiarise ourselves with the location and back alleys to get to it. Surrounded by local residences with a very friendly feel about the place.

Motor oil smell from the car parts alley, no elevator, maze like alley that can be daunting for foreigners. I highly recommend to check in during day light hours. Localscan point you in the right direction.

The place is really as quirky and exotic as it looks on the picture. The place is clean and bed comfortable. In the morning, you will wake up to bird songs. Owner is a very nice man who personally took me to the taxi pick up and carried my luggage.
