Sleeper train type is preferred for overnight train trip. The staffs will convert the seat to bed when the night comes and they will provide you with clean sheet and pillow. 3rd class is not recommended for a long distance journey such as this train from Bangkok to Surat Thani, but it is cheaper compared to the others.
