SHIN Hostel Changphuak ChiangMai

Good space to keep the backpack inside. Good shower, the bed was good with the Plug and light in my bed, wifi and a good patio to meet more people, great location near to everything. My room was 8 beds women and is almost divided by 2 so you don't feel like are many beds there and the beds are not in front of each other this is also good. They also have the locks so you don't need to bring one. The best is the staff I had a personal problem and they made me feel like family and helped me out, all of them are very polite and good people.

Very clean sleeping area. And the staff is super nice, they go above and beyond. And the check in process if convenient.

However, not too comfortable mattress. But most importantly, the bathrooms and community kitchens were not really great as they were mildewy and had small trash cans that filled out rather quick. And the bath mats didn’t do much for the wet floor.

Reception is available 24/7 via wattsap and responds fast

None

I liked how easy of a check in it was as you got your code right away (there is no reception) as check in and check out is all done through WhatApp.

The place was dirty and has a weird smell. I think my experience was not the best because when I got in I wanted to have a shower as they provided a towel, but after looking at my towel it looked dirty and it was also oddly moist. I put pictures below, a little hard to see as the lighting in the room is not the best. Though I did have a shower using my own towel and for some reason I could not figure out how to turn the hot water on, so I will put that on me. What kind of disturbed me was after my shower I came out and a girl asked for my help as the bed she was assigned was occupied by someone else. So we both knocked on the bed to talk to the person in the bed and we found out that she did not have a booking and was not assigned and saw that this bed was open. So that kind of grossed me out. Since there was no reception we did not know what to do and after that moment I just felt dirty because you never know if someone is spending the night in your bed and the hostel has no clue. It kind of made me question my towel and bed. Knowing what just happened I laid out my remaining clean clothes on the bed to put a buffer between the sheets and me to try and get a little bit of sleep as I did not want to lay in the bed that had a dirty damp towel. There are cheaper hostels in the area that I stayed at that was better quality and only a couple min walk away. Like to say this is my own experience.
