We booked this hotel to be in Phuket Town, rather than at one of the beach resorts. The town was fun (if you happen to be in town on a Sunday evening, make sure you visit the Sunday Market), but the hotel was a let-down. In fairness, the room was large, we were supplied with plenty of free water and soft drinks, and the price was very low. But the hotel fronts on a main street and the traffic noise was disruptive, all night every night, especially the motorcycles. The evening staff spoke English well enough, but the clerk who worked mornings spoke very little English, which was a problem for getting directions and arranging a cab. Helping us select tours, let alone booking tours for us, was a service they didn't offer, which is a serious downside for a tourist hotel. The included breakfast is at a restaurant next door, where the service is lackadaisical and the buffet is limited. There were minor annoyances, like charging us 100 Baht for an extra towel, and the wood bed platform that stuck out six inches from the mattress, creating a night-time hazard to the shins. If we go back, we'll stay at a resort hotel and take a cab into town.
