“Great location, friendly owner, quiet rooms”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 5, 2013

This guesthouse was a pleasant surprise - recently under new ownership and there were some nice upgrades. For 350 baht, I stayed in a smaller but CLEAN room with air-con and a flat screen wall-mounted tv. The bed was much more comfortable compared to a few other guesthouses in the area. The room was quiet even though it faced a... More

“Clean and affordable”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed December 26, 2012

This place is great if you are stopping over for a night or two. I've been back twice as the location is good, the owner is genuinely nice, and the rooms are clean. Hard to beat the price in that location. It's also fun on Sundays to see the sunday night market happen outside your window! Even with that commotion... More

“Great place - downtown”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 21, 2012

This is a nice, clean place. Downtown. Especially at the Wat-site, the rooms are very silent. Good food too. And at great price. Definately a go-again-place !

“DO NOT STAY AT LE BATEAU IVRE!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed September 6, 2010

DO NOT STAY AT LE BATEAU IVRE!!! Worst experience ever at Le Bateu Ivre. Paid more for wi-fi (was not true). Then the owner blamed me for internet not working & yelled at me without letting me speak. When I got angry back, he threatened to call immigration and make problem for me. I asked for discount because wi-fi did... More

“Simply Mini Hotel - Near Amazing Temple”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 16, 2010

Good Things: 1. Price, paid 350 bht for a double bed in a good size room. Had to share a bathroom, but not a problem. There were two bathrooms and three rooms on the floor. If you want to pay a bit more (500bht) I think you can get an ensuite. 2. Laid back and nice atmosphere. 3. Amazing food... More
