About the Little One Hostel
Tucked away on a quiet side street in the heart of Chiang Rai lies Little One, a small hostel consistently praised for its cleanliness and welcoming atmosphere. In addition to private rooms, there are shared bathrooms, and the common areas are of a remarkably high standard. The in-house coffee shop is a highlight in itself: guests and passersby alike rave about the quality of the Thai beans and the warm, friendly service.
The staff is attentive and known for their helpful insider tips, including restaurant recommendations off the beaten track. The hostel also offers a laundromat, making it a convenient base for travelers planning to explore the region for a few days. Lockers are available, but are located outside the rooms.
The beds are quite low, which can be uncomfortable for travelers with joint or back problems. Since the staff is only available at certain times of day, it's advisable to plan your arrival and departure times accordingly. For those without mobility limitations who are looking for clean, centrally located, and affordable accommodation in Chiang Rai, Little One is a good choice.

I came in for a coffee, and it was delicious. The customer service was exceptional. While I was sitting, I explained to the lady how much I liked the Thai coffee beans, and she gave me an espresso to try. The iced coffee was also delicious and a perfect start to the day. Lovely decor.
The hostel was good; the room and bathroom were clean. There were only small lockers outside the room. The staff were only present for a few hours a day.
I wouldn't recommend this hostel. We had a private room, and my partner and I both got serious back pain from sleeping in it. The bed is incredibly low, which isn't good for people with joint problems. The mattress is extremely hard, and the room layout is strange. There's no private bathroom. It was pouring rain when we arrived, and we hadn't received the access code by email. The reception was unmanned, so we stood in the rain waiting to be let in. Breakfast was terrible. I wouldn't even say it was included in the price. There was bread to toast yourself, which had obviously been sitting there for days. There was also coffee or juice. We changed hostels.

Tips for visiting hotels and resorts
Compare the rates of online travel agencies and direct providers.
After finding a deal on Agoda or Booking.com, you should always check the hotel's own website as well. Many Thai hotels offer a best price guarantee or extras like free breakfast when booking directly.
Location is more important than the stars
A well-located 3-star hotel is often better than a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, proximity to a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the desired beach is crucial.
