All guest rooms at the hostel are fitted with a seating area. The rooms include a safety deposit box, while some rooms have a balcony and others also feature city views. All rooms will provide guests with a fridge. Had the most lovely stay at Pakping Hostel. Everything was super clean, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious. The location is prefect for seeing everything in the old town. I have already booked my future stay coming back through Chiang Mai.
