The staff spoke impolitely at all. My friend and I booked and paid 590฿ via Agoda. After checking in and staying in the room. The Burmese employee had us talk on the phone with a woman. He said he was the manager. She said let us check out. Because the money didn't come in and never sold through Agoda Speak very impolitely In conclusion, we had to pay an additional 500฿ to the accommodation because we didn't want to find a new place to stay late at night and tired. There were Thai people staying in the room next door. Tell us to call an Agoda representative to request a refund. Fortunately, Agoda refunded the money but had to wait several days to receive it. Plus 15% agodacash in the app as a discount on your next room.

Both Thai and Burmese employees Speak without manners and most importantly, sit and wait, waiting for the check since 5 a.m. In order to wait to check in at 2 p.m. and the room was not clean, musty, said without proper timing, it is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in.

I wrote a good review five years ago, but now this hostel is a disaster. The service attitude at the front desk is very poor, and English is bad. The bathroom and the floor of the room are hardly cleaned. The staff seems eager to stop working soon, In that case, let them just close it. The most important thing is that they have serious racial discrimination.

Accommodation is okay, maybe not very good. But what doesn't work is the bathroom. Shared bathrooms are not very private. If you compare this price with other places But the good thing is that it's very close to Wat Khaek. The service here is like staying at an aunt's house. The aunt next door is like this, friendly but chill, haha.

Please close the service. Employee upgrade It's rude that your parents really don't teach you. We just called to inquire and called us "retarded." Let the person think about whether it is right or not to scold others like this. Whoever wants to stay is welcome. Be careful of being retarded like they say.
