In fact, I want to give it 3 and a half stars, but there are no 3 and a half stars to choose from. The price of a single room is not bad. The air conditioning in the room is freezing, there is a toilet and shower room, and the price is only MYR 52 when booking online with agoda. (Around THB 410) The private space is not as mixed as those in shared rooms. In addition to the snoring, there is also the potential smell of drunkenness, eyesight, and even marijuana.The disadvantage is that there is no air conditioning in the lobby and it is very hot. There is no electric fan in the lounge and dining room, and there is no free drinking water. It is far from the light rail station and about 700 meters away from the water bus station. The water bus stops after 8pm. After transportation, only grab or taxi are left.As long as there is air conditioning in the lobby and a fan in the dining room, I will choose to stay because I can walk very well.

I had a great 4 days here. I took a budget room for one, it was as clean and tidy as possible, the mattress and bed linen were clean and pleasant. Separate bathroom, water at room temperature, which was nice in the heat. The windows overlooked the canal, it was quiet. A common area with a clean kitchen and amenities to eat, chat with neighbors and relax after a day of impressions. Nearby are the stations of the most budget boats. Cycle path along the canal. Opposite is an incredibly beautiful temple. Tuk-tuk parking nearby. I walked everywhere, in the evening it was empty and quiet.I recommend it to everyone, I won over with its neatness!
