Great value! I’ve stayed here numerous times when I’m in Bangkok. Staff is friendly and helpful. Basic rooms but there’s an incredibly beautiful courtyard with a very nice pool and relaxation / socialization area. In addition to the pool, the courtyard has tall trees that provide shade. This is a hidden gem of a hotel that’s within walking distance to a pier where I catch the Chao Phraya Express Boat to all the major tourist attractions down river. Short taxi ride to a MRT station. I’ve learned how to use the mass transit train system so I can get to anywhere around Bangkok and the airport train. Lots of street food as well as restaurants serving decent Thai food. Breakfast buffet is ok nothing fancy. Again, rooms are basic, but I don’t expect a 5 star hotel for such a low price. It’s a budget hotel with a quiet beautiful atmosphere.

This is the third time I’ve stayed at UMA. My favorite thing about UMA is the friendly staff! The second best thing is the beautiful courtyard. There’s a beautiful pool with comfortable lounge chairs. The breakfast options are yummy. UMA is close to the Express Boat Ferry pier too.

UMA. Be warned!
My experience at UMA Residence was not the best. I booked a room on the strength of the photos, which were of a beautiful hotel, but the reality was completely different. The entrance to UMA was hidden along a narrow dirty alleyway. The reception was unwelcoming. The pool area was dark & full of mosquitoes. The room was small and un-maintained & featured several broken fittings, including the AC. Breakfast was paltry and resembled a prison canteen. Outside of the Hotel in the surrounding area was bleak! No bars or restaurants, just street vendors lit by dim 12 volt lamps. After one night of our planned ten was enough & we checked out. Neither Hotels. com nor UMA will refund our money.

Okay hotel in a local ney
Hotel was fine in a local neighborhood away from the usual touristy places. Hotel is clean and basic, nothing to really complain about but nothing stands out about it either. Breakfast is too basic and could be improved. There is a bar on site but it is no longer utilized, which is too bad. Pool is small but nice.

I liked the cleanliness, and pool area. I did not feel very welcome. The three young people at reception were friendly. The manager does not greet one. As I was the only foreigner at breakfast I felt very unwelcome. Its a residence with mostly Thai people. They are either shy or do not like foreigners in their space. If you are single perhaps give this one a miss.

This place feels like oasis in the middle of busy Bangkok. I really liked that it has a very relax vibe to it. The rooms are quiet, and the AC is pretty strong, which was needed on those hot days. They also have great touches like nice lounge area by pool and free delicious hot chocolate. It is not close to main transportation line, but a scooter takes you in 15 mins to where you need to go.

Good value, nice rooms, great staff, nice hotel overall.. Really great value for the money, got a 2 room family suite for about $60 a night on orbitz during peak tourist season. Only downside is kind of in a rundown neighborhood a few clicks from anything.. the small inconvience was well worth it to me.

This place is very inside not many restaurants , special someone traveling from india.if you traveling for siteseeing you need to spend more on taxis. Better to stay near to city. The rooms do not have dental kits, A/C is very slow, breakfast has very little option very tough for vegetarians.

Fab little oasis in local neighbourhood
Couple of days at start of trip to chill. Very local rather than city. Local evening food is an adventure. Chicken noodle man was best at the end of block. Hotel is a real oasis. Great for riverboat down to main touristy bits without having to fight traffic. Lovely staff. Breakfast was good with a variety of Thai and western options. Tricky for taxis to find print out a clear big map for driver with clear street names. Very few tourists on local streets

Excellent clean hotel away from travelers district
Excellent hotel tucked in a non-busy area of Bangkok. Clean and super comfortable bed. Hotel is very clean as well. The common lounge/pool area is excellent. Pool is very clean and chlorinated but shallow, good to cool down. 24-hour snacks and coffee are awesome. Suggest: providing pool towels, for air con to be able to stay on when not in room, as room is powered by keycard, and more options for breakfast. Local street food nearby but no hotel restaurant. Have stayed with family on two occasions and would highly recommend if you want to be away from the traveller district.

It sets in a residential aria with street food abundant. Pools on the small side but still big enough to cool down. Office was helpful just watch out for the taxis. Make them use the meter the ride will be the fraction of the ride.

Great place to stay for a couple of days. The beds are really firm (so if you like the plush mattress, you won't like the beds). Great location, easy walking distance to food shops and taxis right out front.
