This is a large hotel that I guess was built around thirty years ago and is still awaiting it's first refurbishment. Original carpets in the corridors and rooms tell their own unpleasant story. There were scuffs and stains on our bedroom wall. The windows that looked onto a wall opposite were stained with pigeon faeces. The pigeons themselves were occasional, noisy visitors on walls outside.
For convenience sake I actually used this place twice. On the first occasion the phone wasn't working. A guy was sent to the room, did a few things and told us the phone would be working the following day when I was leaving. A week later I checked in again and weirdly was given he same room. Guess what? Yeah, the phone still wasn't working.
That said the pool is great, the breakfasts very good, the prices reasonable and, as usual with Thai hotels, the staff are wonderful under trying circumstances.
