Once in a Blue Moon Cafe and Hostel Reviews

The room is clean and hygienic, highly recommended, and the environment is good.

Toilets and bathroom are clean. they provided shampoo, body wash and tissues. It's in the central old town area and close to eateries. self check in is easy and good for those with late night arrival. I had trouble finding one to allow late night check in as my flight was arriving 1 am until i found this. They are very responsive with email. I love everything about this hostel as in themes, color combinations, interior design and walking down directly to a cozy cafe for morning coffee when you woke up. I will come back when i come cnx next time.

Staff very helpful, nice building, good location. Bed was very hard and no towel given

I like everything here except they don’t have towel for you. I didn’t bring it expecting that they have. And the door is really safe but sometimes its sounds of the digital lock is annoying and the room for 4 beds is already small so we hear everything. The sink is really not in good position (Interior design gone wrong) to open tap water with that stable pressure and it’s splashing everywhere. My floor is 3rd floor but women bathroom is second floor. So i use men bathroom on the same floor. It’s too tired to walk up and down 😅. I wrote this as suggestion not complaining. The location is good and they have cafe downstairs and staff are friendly.

Very convenient

There are a lot of Chinese people and they seem to want to stay here permanently, even though it is a hostel. The staff are not cheerful and seem stressed all the time.

Even though the bed was quite hard, it was fine with me. Staffs are all nice. You can have coffee downstairs since it is a cafe.

The female dorm is very packed and small. There's no space to put luggage and backpacks. The toilet is clean and comfortable. The hostel is attached to the cafe and the vibes are very nice. They also provide luggage storage where I can leave my luggage since I arrived before check-in time. The area of the hostel is surrounded by nice cafes and nearby famous temples. You can just walk around the area.

Pros: -location -price -facilities -wifi -hot water in the shower -quietness at night Cons: -cafe staffs are not so willing to help customers who stay in their hostel, they might feel they are working for the cafe, not for the hostel -common space does not have enough kitchen tools -common space can be cleaner

Good little hostel with cafe downstairs. Clean, and staff were helpful. Not a social hostel but good if you want a break from the party hostels.

The room was filled with a strong smell. It was difficult to stay there.

Youth hostels, don't expect too much. For me, it's good to have a place to sleep and shower. I can live there even if there are ants on the bed. It's not because of the price, I don't want to move. The youth hostel I stayed in recently for 26 yuan was not ok. But the fat lady at the front desk was very troublesome.

The accommodation is clean and easy to travel to near the moat. There are soaps and hair dryers. Downstairs is a cafe and upstairs is a hostel. You can book it for a day or stay overnight. Take the train to Chiang Mai and arrive before check-in time. The accommodation allows you to check in early, which is very convenient. As a woman traveling alone, it is not scary.

Honestly, it's one of the worst hostels I've ever stayed in. The staff isn't welcoming or friendly. The room is tiny, it's hard to find a place for your bag. The lockers are small and don't lock (or maybe the keys are lost, I don't know). The common areas aren't cleaned every day, but every 2/3 days, so it gets dirty quickly. In the room, apart from changing the sheets, I don't think the cleaning is done. And the cherry on the cake is the room security alarm (the thing with the digital code) that rings for no reason at 7:30 in the morning, then a second time at 8:40 waking everyone up. The walls are thin, so as soon as you knock on them by accident, it's super noisy.
