Nice place to stay especially given the low cost
First off I am basing this review on the fact that the room we got was less than $15 dollars equivalent a night! Its not a five star hotel but it doesn't come with that price tag so my review is based off this and that it is such a great deal given the cost of others in the area. The room I shared with my girlfriend for two nights was street facing which for us was no problem at all (we left the patio door open at night to get the nice breeze and even like that the street traffic noise wasn't bad). The room was good size, nice sunlight coming in during the day, clean, good storage for luggage and unpacking clothes, AC worked well, and the staff was helpful when we had questions where to eat and for arranging a ride back to the airport. The hotel is a little ways away from the beach but we liked that it put us closer to the more traditional off the beaten path Thai food carts and eateries (which were cheaper than the beach front places for food). My only negative comment about my stay is that twice at night the water was turned off with no warning. Strangely when we went down to report it they turned the water right back on (not sure why it was turned off). The WiFi was ok and though not blazingly fast was fine for the small amount of internet use we needed.

This place is a dump! I would like to say 'you get what you pay for' but that's not true in this case. We spent 3 weeks in Thailand staying in hotels at the same price point and this was our only bad find. The hotel is filthy (dirty Q-tips in a dust ball on the floor), the AC was terrible, the TV didn't work (they did bring a different TV in though), the floor was literally peeling up from water damage. We asked for a different room but the receptionist told me the hotel was fully booked. This was not true...there were multiple rooms available online and lots of keys in there room slots. That was another concern...the lock on the room door was the same kind you would use inside your house for a bathroom lock. It was not secure at all. I had booked the room for 2 nights but ended up taking the loss (no refund) and moved to another hotel after the first night. The only good thing about this hotel is its 15 minute walk to the beach. I have no idea how this place has good reviews. AVOID!

The hotel was in a good location with everything in walking distance. Nice workers and overall good experience. Only thing that weighs down was the bed. After the first day we turned the madrass, problem solved!

Situato in una buona posizione, non troppo distante dalla spiaggia. Camera con tutto il neccessario e tutto funzionante. Arredo e bagno avrebbero bisogno di un ammodernamento. Personale cortese e disponibile. C'e' anche il ristorante dove si puo mangiare ottimo cibo thay.

Good, basic hotel. Clean room, good bed, ok breakfast. Only couple of minutes walk to the beach, good restaurants nearby. Staff not very helpful, no smiles, only face timing on the phone. the door of my room barely stayed closed, very loose lock! wouldn't leave anything valuable there, otherwise great. Peaceful hotel.

Billigt, bra hotell för den okräsne.
Mindre lite slitet men trevligt hotell. Bredvid trafikerad väg. Tog ca 5 min att gå till stranden, många restauranger längs med vägen och ett minimarket bredvid hotellet. Bra hotell för de som vill bo bekvämt men billigt. Snabbt, gratis wi-fi som fungerade utan avbrott. Tv på rummet med Int kanaler. Trevlig personal.

Lever ikke op til forventningerne
Hotellet levede ikke op til forventningerne. Da vi nåede frem på hotellet var det Intet som det viste på billederne! Personalet var flinke og smilende dog kunne de overhovedet ikke engelsk. Den ene aften gik strømmen i 6 timer. Hotellet ligger relativt langt fra butikker, restauranter og strand. Det eneste positive ved hoteller var den fantastiske udsigt til bjergene fra værelset.

Was okay but hotel was little torn down. Service was okay but they didn't seem to care really. Price was good for what you get. Perfect for short term.
