Outstanding hostel. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great location in KK city, convenient to travel around. However, reception is at level 1 and signboard is not big enough to attract attention. Other than that, all perfect.

I\"m very happy to have chosen to stay in Vibrant Hostel. Very clean and the staff are very helpful and warm. Moreover, next to a big mall, Imago which makes it even more convenient to relax or to find foods and etc. Only regret not trying this hostel earlier, still not too late. I'm a regular visitor to KK.

Great hostel !! Super clean with friendly staff. Near to Imago Shopping Mall, the best mall in KK. Bed is very comfortable and the hostel is well maintained. Shower room and toilet are separated, very clean. Best value through Expedia compares to other channels. Grab before it's too late. 24 hours convenient store on the ground floor. Very convenient. Highly recommended !!!
