I had a pleasant stay at Laf Hotel Aree for two nights. The location was one of the highlights, surrounded by plenty of food options and vibrant street food. However, the facilities could use some improvement, especially the size of the toilets and cleanliness of the capsules. Overall, I found my capsule to be super comfy and well-ventilated, making my stay fairly enjoyable.

I found Laf Hotel Aree quite decent for the price, with a few ups and downs. The location was great since it’s close to the airport and public transport, but the capsule I stayed in was a bit warm and uncomfortable. On the bright side, the staff were super friendly and offered nice facilities for cooking my own breakfast, which was a plus for my early flight.

My stay at the Laf Hotel Aree was a mixed experience. The location near the sky train was very convenient, making it easy to explore Bangkok. though the hostel felt a bit isolated at times. The bed was comfortable and the cleanliness was commendable, but the bathroom was quite cramped, posing a challenge for larger guests. Overall, there were aspects I enjoyed, but areas in need of improvement as well.

The capsule size was impressive, much larger than those I've encountered at other hostels, providing a comfortable sleep environment. However, the tight restroom and shower stalls could use some reconfiguration to enhance usability.

The hotel is conveniently located just a couple of minutes from the BTS Ari station, which provided quick access to popular attractions. It's also reasonably close to the airport, making travel manageable, though slightly removed from the city center.

Dining

Breakfast was a DIY affair with provided ingredients, which could be an advantage for early risers like me, although I ended up skipping it due to oversleeping. It's a neat concept if you manage your time well.

Facilities

7.0

The hostel maintained a high standard of cleanliness, and offered basic facilities like dry cleaning, but the shared bathrooms were less than comfortable for larger guests.

I loved the location! It was just a 5-10 minute walk to the BTS station, making transportation around the city a cinch. Plus, there are plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby.

The hotel has a small self-service kitchen as well as a cozy bar area. It's nice to have those options, but I think the bathrooms could definitely use some improvement. They're quite small.
