Recommended Hotel/Hostel in Bangkok

Hi all,

We are heading to Bangkok soon, and hoping someone can recommend a good place to stay, with a bit of a traveller vibe, parking for the motorbike, and not too expensive! Thinkingold town / khao san area.

Or maybe it's easy enough to just turn up and find somewhere, but I get the impression that BKK is too busy for this? Anyone done this successfully?

Looking forward to responses, and Happy New Year!

Cat and James xx

Hi you 2,
we stayed at the bluefin gesthouse
Directions to Bluefin Guesthouse in Bangkok - Bangkok City Map
its cheap and has safe parking (in the fenced garden). Its in a Thai neighborhood with loots of good and cheap food. We liked it there.
We have also met a couple of other bikers there.

Happy New Year

No idea, but could be worth a look.
