We stayed here for just one night, and even that was more than enough. This is not a proper hotel but a residential building where they seem to be selling apartments — there were brochures with prices for rooms all over the elevator and on every floor.
The location is somewhat convenient, being close to a private hospital, a mall, a market, and a 7-Eleven. There are also bus stops nearby, which is the only positive I can mention.
Upon check-in, we were asked for a 500 baht deposit, or to leave a passport as collateral if we didn’t have the cash. This policy was never mentioned during the booking process, which felt extremely unprofessional and misleading.
The staff didn’t speak English at all, and we had to rely on a translation app just to communicate basic things. While the building does have an elevator, the room itself was nothing like the pictures.
The worst part of the stay was the fact that there was no glass on the window frame — just a plastic mesh cover, as if the window was wide open. This meant we were fully exposed to the noise from the street all night long: people shouting, cars, airplanes, birds — you name it. Sleeping was nearly impossible.
The room also had a strong, unbearable smell of paint, as if something had just been freshly painted, which made it extremely uncomfortable to even stay inside.
The mattress was very hard, which may not suit everyone, and the bedding had visible stains, as shown in some of the website pictures.
On the positive side, they did provide towels, bottled water, toilet paper, soap, and there was hot water in the bathroom. But none of that makes up for how uncomfortable the experience was.
Lastly, the entire street in front of the building smelled awful — it was honestly repulsive and added to the general sense of discomfort.
Even for the price, it is not worth it. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Huge disappointment.
