Hometown Hostel is on Petchsamut Road in Samut Songkhram, a small province on the Gulf of Thailand where the Mae Klong river and its canals shape daily life. The town is quieter than Bangkok, with pagodas and markets within a short distance of the hostel, and the canals give it a slower pace.

The hostel is 100 m from Wat Phet Samut Worawihan, a pagoda, and the Maeklong Railway Market is 300 m away, beside the tracks at Mae Klong station. At the market the stalls are set up along the railway line, and when a train comes through, the vendors pull in their awnings to let it pass. The Amphawa Floating Market, 5 km away, is a different outing, with food stalls and boats along the canals. Guests arriving by air can use the hostel's airport transfer, and those who drive can use the free parking nearby.

A good day here could start at the Maeklong Railway Market and the pagoda, then continue to the Amphawa Floating Market for lunch and a slow walk along the canal-side stalls. Both places can be combined in one day, with the hostel as the place to return to in the evening. Those who prefer a quieter afternoon can spend time in the shared lounge and the rooftop area.
