I had a decent stay at this hotel, which boasts a fantastic location right on the Saturday Walking Street, making it easy to explore nearby markets and food stalls. The rooms were a bit stuffy upon entry and right next to the pool, which did have a strong chlorine smell. However, the outdoor seating was a plus for enjoying a smoke. The overall comfort could be improved, but the friendly staff really made the experience better.

The hotel has a great location, being a short walk to Ta Pae market and other shops, which is perfect for late-night food runs.
