Love this place! Great location, cute, and super nice decorated room. Everything is well taken care of and the owner and his staff is friendly and always will help you with anything that could be possible needed. They offer bicycle tours, seems crazy to do that in BKK, but we loved it; really nice, no traffic, no danger, and lots of information. Will be back, this is the place to stay in BKK. So many options to eat around, what to do, love love love it! Thanks for taking so well care of us, and sorry for a 2 month late review. Lotta Hansson recommends Old Capital Bike Inn
