The common areas and bathrooms were very clean, and there was a locker right next to the bed where you could use a lock. While it wasn't in a super central area, it was very quiet and walking distance to a lot of stuff which was convenient. The front desk staff were also very friendly and kind. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are okay with a hostel.

The Common Hostel was excellent. Staff was super friendly. The common areas is great for meeting fellow travelers. The breakfast is basic but gets the job done. I booked the private room and it’s small but has all you need. Only thing is there’s no step to separate the shower from rest of the bathroom so water gets over easily. But overall it was a pleasant stay and would definitely come back. It’s on the quieter side of the old city so it’s a bit of a walk/ride to the markets and bars but overall a good time

Okay for the price

The staff were so friendly and helpful- giving lots of advice of good places to visit. Free water saved us lots of money & location was great. Breakfast had a small selection but bread and fruit was very good!

Only thing that let it down a little bit was our room wasn’t cleaned in the 6 days we were there, meaning towels etc were quite grotty by the end! It also meant that we had to ask for toilet paper when we ran out which felt a bit weird.

Staff are a credit to the hostel & made our stay a success- thank you!

Great hostel...

This was my first hostel stay of my trip to Thailand and I wasn’t disappointed. Lovely hostel with a chilled vibe in a great location. Stayed in a female dorm, which had nice comfy beds with a curtain for privacy and a card operated power socket, light switch, etc. You also have your own cupboard where you can store your backpack or personal belongings! The bathroom area was great with good showers and always clean & tidy. The hostel also provided a free breakfast, tea, coffee & drinking water which was lovely. Only stayed here 2-nights but wish I had stayed longer as so much to do in Chiang Mai would definitely stay here again :-)

The AC in the rooms worked really well, although at night when you close the curtain to your bed it blocks a bit of the cool air.

Slightly above average

Let's start with the good. Hostel staffs were great. Design is simple yet classy. Appreciate the unlimited drinking water supply.
The bad. The unlimited drinking water supply also means unlimited supply of plastic bottles, which equals to unnecessary wastage. The wooden floor creates too much noise each time someone walks on it, which means I kept hearing wooden floor creaking the entire day. A disturbance of peace to say the least.
That said, I would still recommend this place. I just wished some extra thought have gone into this during construction.

Great stay, would be perfect with a few tweaks

Great hostel to stay in. Breakfast and free water, tea and coffee was a nice touch. Bed in dorm rooms were comfortable and curtain gave privacy. Dorms would benefit from more designated storage space for people's big bags as the area at the end of the room became quite cluttered with bags and detracted from the overall look and feel of the place. Management should also give people staying in double beds in dorms two key cards. Currently they only give one per bed which is inconvenient for people sharing. The key card is needed to get in and out of room when you go to the toilet or shower meaning that people staying in doubles were constantly leaving the dorm door unlocked so that they could get in and out freely which is a security concern.

Best hostel I stayed in.

This was my second Hostel of my trip and it was the most comfortable out of all of them. I stayed in the female dorm, in a bottom bunk. I was a solo traveler. The bed was very comfortable and very private, it was almost like you had your own room when you crawled in and shut the curtain. There was a huge area within the bunk to lock your items. The bed was clean and comfortable. The dorm was very quiet and most people kept their curtains closed so it was even private when you were out of your bunk.

The bathroom area was very large and there were several showers and toilet stalls. The showers were large and had a dry space to change clothes. They provided shampoo and soap. The bathroom was always clean.

The staff was awesome and very friendly, it was a younger staff and they always seamed very happy.

They provide a free breakfast every morning, usually bread, boiled eggs, fruit and jams. It was all very good. Coffee and tea is free all day long.

Wifi worked great.

Outdoor area is spacious and beautiful.

Security was good, key card entry into each dorm. DO NOT loose your key as I did, 100 baht to replace.

Super Rich money exchange was within walking distance, best rates in Thailand.

If I am ever in Chiang Mai again, this will be where I stay, no question.

Best Hostel!!

This place is awesome for budget travelers! They do a really great job at up-keep and the food is fantastic for breakfast. As sad as it sounds, the free water bottles 24/7 was so nice to have. The most hydrated I've been all 6 months of my travels. The only thing that they need to somehow fix is the mosquitos in the common areas, but that is expected given we are in Asia!

Beautiful hostel with amazing staff!

I stayed here for 24 days so I got to know the place well. It is fantastic! Very clean, comfortable, and most importantly staffed by a wonderful group of young people who love to help out fellow travelers! I don't normally stay in hostels, but I was in a private room and it felt like a four star hotel. Breakfast is delicious local food, there is good coffee all day, and unlimited free water (unexpected even at a nice hotel here). They even are storing my luggage for me for free while I am traveling for a week! The location is great and fairly quiet, inside the moat near the north gate, close to lots of beautiful temples as well as the Sunday walking street. Thank you so much Hostel by BED! I will definitely be back next time I come to Chiang Mai.

The hostel is newly opened in Dec 2016. Clean bed and convenience location. Easy to find. Breakfast is very nice with some Thai style food. However, free bottle of water is not environmental.

Great hostel in a really good location for the temples and restaurants. Free water available at the hostel also. Quick and easy check in and a comfortable bed. Bathrooms are always clean and had a very nice shower. The reception team are willing to help with any trips or airport transfers. Only fault was that the hostel was very noisy, you can hear everyone walking down the corridors and the beeping on the doors everytime someone opened it can drive you mad at 1am.

Overall great stay and worth the price.

Great stay! The beds were comfy and with curtains, nice privacy for the bunk. Cleaning staff was a bit loud while clearing out a couple bunks at 8am, while guests were still sleeping so that was a bit annoying. Also took over 30 minutes just to check in and put my stuff down (problems with the room key, then the cabinet key. In the end they had to change my room). But the staff is really friendly and helpful. Awesome that they offer free water, good coffee, and a little breakfast.

凌晨，蟑螂爬脸.卫生差

7年里去了几十次清迈，这是住过卫生环境最差的青旅。之前和家人经常入住Bed旗下的酒店都非常满意，所以这次订了Bed hostel，但是这家hostel只是加盟形式，和Bed 酒店几乎没多少关联。
入住第二天一直留鼻血，刚好下床有几个退房的，为免弄脏床单希望可以换下铺并且要求离空调远一点。职员说必须11点把行李打包好交出房卡，等下午2点后才重新登机入住。于是大中午就流着鼻血在外面流浪到2点才回去休息，然后还是安排最靠近空调的床位。
入住到第三天晚上，凌晨4,5点感觉有东西碰到脸上，到了早上醒来大崩溃！一个蟑螂在床上爬着（我不知道看不到的还有几个）！而且我的行李和床上都没任何食物！！店家致歉並表示可以换床位，然而它们的床全部都连成一排的，立马拒绝自行找酒店提前搬走！
Bed hostel的订价在清迈的青旅中算偏高，而且评分高，这也是我对它比较有信心的原因。我不知道是否刷出来的，因为最基本的卫生，从公共区域到床铺都让人大开眼界。早餐更是简单到免提了。虽然在古城里，但是附近连便利店和宵夜都木有。

The cockroaches on the bed and climbed out on midnight, unless you don't mind health and service, otherwise don't choose this hostel please.
