very nice hostel, friendly staff, and great common spaces, such as a living and a kitchen. The neighborhood is a bit far from the main attractions, but is very charming with all the leatherware stores. Also, close to public transport.

Clean room with helpful people in the area. It's very quiet at night and the bed is the best. I find it very easy to get into the boat tour around the riverside from here. Recommend anyone staying to consult that grey file in the lobby, it is very useful.

The Companion is an independent small hostel. This place is quite unique in the service offering. I love how they design the place, cozy and clean. They are not in the tourist popular area and are in quite a hidden part of Bangkok. But the area is super nice with local products and wet markets. The

The Companion is a very comfortable small hostel. I find the design to be very clean and minimal. The neighborhood is famous for its leather material market. A lot of good food in fresh market too. There is also a good rooftop to chill. Recommend this place to anyone who want to experience Bangkok

The place was very aesthetic and we were able to secure a private area with 4 available toilets just perfect for us. We were very busy since we had to attend business tours and convention during the travel. The owners were very accommodating and understanding.

In Thai Word - This place is "Dee Mark Mark". Good for resting, chilling, and loads of local food with unbelievable pricing around the area.
