Stayed 3 nights in this hotel.+The price of the hotel is very reasonable.+The room is spacious and fairly basic. The bed is soft and nice, the shower is spacious and has pleasant water pressure.+The house is cleaned thoroughly every day and the water bottles and towels are replaced.+The hotel has a good location near BTS station Saphan Khwai. There is also a nice coffee shop next to the hotel and a nice cocktail bar down the street.+You can do your laundry for a reasonable price.-No kettle in the room and few electrical outlets.-There is a refrigerator in the room, but it makes a lot of noise. The air conditioning is also quite noisy because it is a bit older.-The lobby is quite messy.-During our stay there were also works in the hotel. Unfortunately, this was not communicated in advance.-The rooms are noisy. You can hear the neighbors when they talk a little louder.Three out of five stars are an objective rating for this Hotel. Price/quality is excellent, but you will have a nicer accommodation if you pay a little more and book earlier. You can also find comparable hotels that include breakfast and this hotel did not have that.

Made a reservation at around 2:00 p.m.Check in at approximately 10:50 p.m.It appeared that the staff informed us that the room was full, even though we had already reserved it and had already transferred the money. How will I use this?

It's a very traditional Thai hotel. The room is clean. Although it's on the roadside, it's not noisy. It has all the necessary equipment. There's an elevator, so you don't have to carry your luggage up the stairs. There's plenty of light in the room, but the bathroom lights are a bit not bright enough. The balcony is very bright when the curtains are opened during the day, but I happened to live in a place where the floor-to-ceiling windows could not be fastened@_@", but I lived on the inside and it was relatively safe. I only stayed for one day and the check-in time was late, so I didn't ask him to repair it. But overall, it's still okay.

Property is in between Ari and Saphan Kwai BTS station, which makes it convenient to travel around Bangkok. There's 7-11 and a Big C hypermarket nearby too.||Room was decent and it's relatively clean. …

Stayed on the 5th floor and pressed the elevator up. The elevator jerks quite frighteningly. Every time I get on the elevator (I don't know how to go down), the room isn't soundproof. The other room opened and closed the door and everyone could hear it. In the late morning, employees working in other rooms could hear the noise all the time.

At the price point it offers very basic room. But it has been almost 8 years since my last stay and there has been no upkeep. Toilet doors lock by itself and the aircon is warm at night. Cleaners forget to clean your room. Hotel offers zero assistance. No coin change for the laundry in their premise. No English. Must use google translate to seek help for locked toilet door. Lower your expectations for the price of room
