Poor room service, cleaning staff don’t know their job, leave dirty cups in the room, never provide clean unless you keep on reminding. We were there for 2 week, same breakfast every day :( . Pool hygiene was not the best! Location wise it was good.

Clean and simple hotel. We stayed in several hotels in the area and for the price this one was quite accommodating and well located.
The only cons are: you hear everything in your hallways, can’t keep the room cold with out leaving your key inserted.(it takes quite a while to cool the room down when you get back for the day) and the pool is quite gross a lot of things floating in it and the surface shows a lot of oils floating. We didn’t see it cleaned once in 10 days.

Mehr Schein als Sein...
Nach den Fotos sind wir von einem schönen, gehobeneren Hotel ausgegangen. Das Zimmer war auch in Ordnung, aber das Hotel liegt an einer 6 spurigen Straße und der nächtliche Verkehrslärm war unerträglich. Frühstück war gut. Ansonsten wirkt das Hotelgelände, außer in der Empfangshalle, heruntergekommen, schmutzig und ungepflegt. Bis 15 Uhr fand noch keine Zimmerreinigung statt, die Putzwagen stehen immer auf den Fluren rum. Alles wirkt liederlich. Wir würden das Hotel nicht weiterempfehlen.

På bilderna ser det ut som ett lite lyxigare Hotel men det är betydligt sämre
standard och väldigt otrevlig personal, inte serviceinriktade alls vilket helt går emot allt annat bemötande vi fått i Thailand någonsin.
