Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. They are willing to provide takeaway breakfast in the early morning for our morning flights. Rooms are clean and the highlight is the delicious breakfast. One suggestion is they should add more variety for the breakfast menu :)

If you spend most of your trip around platinum mall and pratunam (shopping only for cheap clothes). This will be perfect location. But if you plan sights seeing and need to take public transport. This hotel is not recommended. Taxi: the road is always jam. Need to prepare waiting time half an hour for taxi. Don’t believe in taxi apps. The time always change or they might suddenly cancel your booking. If you take train, it is a long walk. Take est 10 minutes walk to nearest train station. These is what I had experience. All depends on own preference. You can get better hotels for the price.
