We were given this room as part of a package and wished we could have picked something else. We knew this was budget accommodation but found it hard to live with the mites, dirty sheets, lack of space and the smells. On the plus side the staff were nice, the air con was good and it was in a great... more

We stayed here one night, while waiting for a plane flight. We paid about 550 baht for a room. We'd just peeked into a few other nearby hotels - Sawasdee Smile's room was at least marginally brighter and less dingy than those others. The room was tiny and about as plain as they could possibly make it. The toilet was... more

avoid this place in any way.. if u happen to pre-booked sawasdee krungthep inn under promotional rate, they'll transfer you to smile inn when u show up..and keep the room in krungthep inn for walk-in guest (which charged @ standard rate)! this is a bad experience.. more

We booked and paid in advance for 7 nights. We managed to stay only 3 nights and even though was to, to, to much from us. It's an unimaginable place to live for any civilized person. Before we left BKK for Chiang Mai we checked and found very nice and civilized guest houses in the same aria but on the... more

Literally. On the third night of my five night stay, I discovered that the bed was almost swarming in bedbugs. Every time I squished the ones I could see, more showed up. Which explained why I'd been so itchy and my back looked like I had some type of pox - I'd put it down to the heat. Beyond that,... more

To save myself stress and hassle I've stayed at this place a few times before over the past 10 years and it hasn't improved at all. Last time was in 2004 and seemed ok just to sleep for 2 nights but this time was the last. Now I am defo not a clean freak, indeed I sleep in bamboo huts... more

Landed accidentally here as I wanted a shelter just for overnight stay in Bangkok. With nice memories of holiday in other parts of Thailand when I checked in I was shocked. The photos and quality of website was quite deceiving. I am not at all new to backpacking but this was the worst of all. I went back to d(r)eception... more

My husband and I arrived at the inn in the afternoon and were quickly checked in. The staff seemed very helpful and friendly and carried my rucksack up to the room. There was a nice restaurant and bar which showed movies most nights and a decently priced internet cafe. The location was great, on a quiet road just around the... more

My sister and I booked this hotel as we had stayed at the Sawasdee Sukhumvit Inn, and loved it. When we arrived, we discovered that they had given away the Superior Twin that we had reserved and paid for on their own website. We were given a Standard Double instead. The room and ensuite were tiny. The blankets looked like... more
