Liars!!!!
First off my room was never reserved, then I supposedly got upgraded to two single beds facing the noisy pool, no internet or TV the last couple of days, and I found out I was double charged the last two days on my credit card after I paid in cash! Don’t get ripped off like I did! And no one will return my emails or calls! Not happy! Oh and no safe in the room!

The property is in prime location right next to the beach and shops. Really nice staff, clean rooms and area, definately would recommend. A slight downside is that the Internet can be a bit slow when outside of the main building but otherwise excellent accommodations.

It’s a nice hotel, and there is much to like. But no safe, desk, or minibar in the rooms, as it states. Toiletries were lacking – there wasn’t even any shampoo provided, and just one tiny bar soap. The air conditioning works, but not very well. The exterior of the property is really run down and in horrible shape, but the inside of the rooms are actually modern and updated (except for the mold in the shower). And there is no restaurant, bar, or room service at all, even though it says it has these. There is only a breakfast buffet, and honestly it’s not very good at all. Finally, I reserved a queen bed, but instead it was two twin beds pushed together.

I had a very pleasant stay here. The room I stayed in was clean, the bathroom was either recently tiled or thoroughly cleaned, either way walls and floor looked like new. The non chlorinated large pool is well maintained, water is clean and not hurting the eyes, big plus there. My room had a balcony overlooking the pool, excellent place to sip morning coffee of afternoon beer. I see some people are complaining about not having hot water. Note how long these "Main wings" are. It just takes some time before the hot water reaches the room. In my room it took about 2 or 3 minutes but never a problem. Breakfast was average, a bit pricey (300 baht) considering the food offered but convenient to eat in air conditioned restaurant. It is advertised that there is spa, sauna and massage but there were no such facilities open so a minus there. Room service closes already at 5 and don't do some of the dishes on menu (no fish 'n chips) - egg fried rice was OK tho. No safe in room however there are safety boxes behind the 24h counter which, in my opinion, are safer place for the valuables because there is always someone watching them. The hotel is old and shows it's age. No electronic sliding door anywhere, no lifts etc. Depending on what you pay I'd give this hotel anywhere between five and three stars. If you pay $20 or less per night it's five stars. $20 to $30 four stars; beyond $30 three stars and for that price I'd look around for alternative hotels, many around this area.

A Pleasant place to stay
The resort was not busy at the time we were there due to the after effects of COVID on tourism, but the service and facilities were very good. The location on the main beach strip was good with restaurants nearby. Close enough to the action but far enough away to not be part of it if you don't wish to be.

The first room had no hot water. After the staff checked it twice over two hours, they basically shrugged their shoulders. At my suggestion, they moved me to another room, which also had no hot water. Again, they shrugged their shoulders. Only when I packed my bags, threatened to move and got the manager on the phone did they move me to a third room. Finally, hot water.

Location!
Location was great, close to the beach, and short walk to the main street. They had free breakfast buffet for us which was a plus, the food was good, enough variety to fill our tummies. Hotel lobby area, and grounds are nicely kept. You can tell it needs an update when u get to your room. Toiletries are provided. The bed was quite hard, for those who are sensitive you may have a hard time sleeping. Staff was friendly. No in room safe.

Below Expectations
When we checked in at 3.30pm the room was not ready and had to wait 30 minutes to get to our room. We had requested a Queen bed so they put 2 single beds together with two separate bed covers. By putting the 2 beds together it covered up the electrical sockets. We never used the pool but for some reason they had a huge mechanical contraption acting as a pump or filter system. This was sat on the side of the pool.
