The hotel provided us with the most beautiful and comfortable experience any traveler could ask for. Ms. Bee was very accommodating. She would always recommend less expensive options or even plan your itineraries for your entire stay. We highly recommend it.||- BONIFACIO, BALAGOT and BARBOZAFAMILY

Smile Society made our stay in Thailand comfortable. Every after tour, when we returned home, we found a pleasant and vibrant place that relaxed us. Ms. Bee is also very accommodating and active, which made our stay easier. Considering that we were with seniors, she also asked how they were feeling after a tiring day. Moreover, the place is very accessible due to its location, which is near the BTS and grocery stores.

I loved my stay especially for the lovely host Bee, all her genuine recommendations, the location and the quirky little room I had. I picked the smallest room because I was just passing through and the bed was so comfortable and everything neat and clean. I would defnitely recommend staying with Bee if you appreciate an authentic stay, lovely conversations with the host, perfect location close to Lumpini Park and a fair price. I'll be back ❣️

The hotel was quite easy to find and once we arrived we were well taken care of in a clean room. Especially the advice given by the owner helped us out a lot because the downtown area can be expensive and with her tipps we found local places which were affordable for us. On top of that the owner is a really nice person who helped us with the laundry and on the last day she even gave us the possibilty for a late checkout due to our flight being at 11 pm. All in all, really good hotel in the downtown area with a really nice owner.
