Everything. The owner and her family. She is just so kind, very much like a mother to us. Peaceful back yard with plenty of fruiting trees and a large fish pond. Such a shame that we only stayed one night.

We traveled with a group of 8 (5 adults and 3 kids) and took the shared dorm for 10 people. It was very comfortable and we all slept well. The pool is also very nice and has shade, which is important when it is as hot as it was when we were there. Breakfast was also excellent and we all enjoyed it.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Asleep hostel is in a great location in Kanchanaburi, right next to the night market giving you endless local food to try and somewhat in the middle of the rest of the city as it spreads out in both directions.

    Great location next to the train station and night market. It's not on the backpacker strip but a couple of minutes away, so it's a quiet location, bonus. The staff are really friendly and there is scooter hire.
