Dang Derm Khaosan

It's just on Khao San Road, so it's a perfect hotel for an all night long party, because you will be able to get to bed easily. Also, I have to admit that they have very good breakfasts. We choosed this hotel during our stay in February because we were in Bangkok also in November and we had another hotel with which we weren't so satisfied and we saw this Dang Derm during our Khao San night. So we tried it. It was a little better than the hotel in November (Hotel New Siam Riverside), but the overal quality of hotels in Bangkok is not the best standard as from my experience (maybe it's similar to inland Malaysian and Indonesian hotels in off-tourists areas), so don't expect much.

Noisy. Really noisy. Of course as it is on Khao San Road you should expect that, but even though I assumed it will be a little noisy, the level of noisiness we've got was really too much. Luckily the next morning we rode a seven hours long trip to Koh Chang, so we slept in the minivan (as in the hotel room it was almost impossible). Also, the TV in the room could be more modern (or none at all), as the one they have is from the 80's. But it's just funny, I don't think that anyone would take this hotel to stay in the room and watch TV. One weird think was that during the checkin process they ask for a large deposit fee. It's understantable because it's on Khao San Road, but not so much understantale when you get into the room and see there's nothing that valuable, not even bed or anything else. To be honest, the deposit volume has much large value than the room itself.
