“CLEAN AND COMFY PLACE TO STAY”

Reviewed July 30, 2016

We went to this B&B because it was well scored and did not disappoint us. It is located in a quiet district away from the tourist area of Bangkok, which is very interesting if you want to be immersed in a real local neighborhood. Every day they give you a complimentary tuk-tuk to nearest undergroung or boat stop, and in... More

“Great Place to Stay in Bangkok”

Reviewed July 4, 2016

This B&B was great in every way. Some of the nicest staff that we encountered during our month long trip through Thailand. The rooms were really nice and comfortable. Feela like home. The best part is that you are in the middle of a regular Thai neighborhood. Great food everywhere. Close to all transportation and very few tourists. Highly recommended!

“Great Place to stay”

Reviewed June 30, 2016

I completely loved the place. I'd stayed in a 120$ hotel in a posh part of the city (at a large conference), and apart from the large foyer and continental breakfast there was nothing in the large hotel that matched this place. I then spent an additional week R&R and so moved to this place at my cost. The rooms... More

Karan (the owner) is by far one the nicest people we met on our trip. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable and the breakfast is amazing!
