I really like the accommodation next to the Amphawa Canal. You can walk around the market all day. The room is a bit old. There is a folding door. But only one channel can be opened. Makes the room look dark and uncomfortable if every door can be opened. The room will be open and airy. The wind always blows in. You can sit and watch the boats in the canal..The bathroom was good enough, there was air conditioning, a TV, and the cleanliness was good. The room is a little old if compared to the price paid. It is considered to be purchasing the convenience of traveling..Good location, located in Amphawa Floating Market. But at the end of the market You can walk around the market at any time, easy to find things to eat.

In front of the entrance to a convenient alley, passing through Rama 2 Park, entering the Soi Sampakong Shrine. (Guan Yin) more convenient than Bangchak gas station alley. Landmark on the right opposite Soi Wat Amphawa.There is a blue minibus driving past in this alley (or the owner's house is in this alley, I don't know). In the middle of the alley, there is the Chaipattana Foundation center selling souvenirs, souvenirs, tea, and coffee.And if you cross the bridge on the right to reach another shrine that means 'lost', go back. Ready to call the resort ownerParking and housing are different places. But not too far apart Parking for about 10 cars is on the left-hand side of the alley.)Follow the staff to the alley next to the resort parking lot. I don't know the name of it. Ploen Amphawa is at the corner of the entrance to Amphawa Market.The room I stayed in was in an antique style, high ceiling, high air conditioner, but there was a fan to help blow air, a clothes rack, a hot water shower, and a bed. If there was anything missing, tell the resort owner. I'll find it for you. On the small table, there's a wheelbarrow from the resort owner.This area has a tourist pier. You should be able to take a boat trip around this area.Next to the resort There is a small grocery store. Next to it is another resort's restaurant. Across the street there is a noodle shop open every day. You can cross over to eat. There is a bridge to cross.If you come in the evening, walk to Amphawa Market for another two bridges. Go up the bridge and walk to the alley on the left. It's a pedestrian market. There's a lot of dinner. There is a Guan Yu Shrine here. Walk to the intersection and you will see a Krungthai ATM. and Government Savings Bank with ATMIf you run out of porridge, you can order Line Man 7 (try opening the app).Around 10 o'clock in the morning, the sea rises and the walkway will be flooded. But you can walk around on the wooden path. The water recedes around 11:00 a.m. If you want to go to the market, travel to Sampakong Shrine Alley. Go to the end of the alley and see Amphawa Temple. Turn left, cross the road, go down to the road next to the bridge. There will be a pedestrian bridge crossing next to it. Bridge over the river of carsNote: Amphawa Market comes alive on Saturday-Sunday.

Came on 24-25/11/2022During this time, the floating market is quiet. I can stay alone for 2 nights for 1600 baht.The room is next to the water, with comfortable weather, has air conditioning, refrigerator, hot water, hot water kettle, coffee bags, CRT TV (old style cabinet screen), but didn't try to turn on the wifi, very good.The owner provides very good service. There is parking and a sunshade. No parking fee because of the resort itselfImprovements: The toilet should be cleaned a bit. If the front door of the room opens and has a lock to keep it from folding back, that would be great. Because when the wind blows Sometimes the door blows to close the room. Afraid that the wooden door will be damaged

Just went to sleep in an old, antique room. The most scary thing is the beam in the middle of the room. As for the electrical outlets, TV, lamps, everything has come from ancient times. Some are usable, but a lot are broken. The quality of the bedding and service has to be dealt with. The loud noises from motorboats and people passing by from time to time.

At the cost of S$74, it is a ripped off. The look on the booking site Hotels.com is quite misleading. Luckily I booked only a night and managed to quickly book its neighbour which is more a resort and also properly managed. …

Fabulous location on the canal near market shops. Not really enough room for family unless you are all very cosy so better for singles and couples. River can rise to front shutters which are the doors. Great traditional experience, highly recommend.
