We stayed 2 nights in this guesthouse. Didnt make a reservation. So when we arrived they had only the backpackers rooms available. So i write something about those and the best rooms they have to offer wich we had the second night. We even get a nice discount the second night.
-- Backpackers rooms: 4 rooms with shared bathroom and toilet. 150 tb each night for a double bed and a fan. Rooms are about 3x3 meters. 3 mm wood seperated the room so you hear everything of the neigbours, and i mean everything..... The mosquito screens are not that good and there are no mosquito nets for the beds, so bring your own. Towels, toiletpaper, soap, water are provided (the same for all the rooms). Toilets and bathroom are very clean. Water is cold, but with the high temperatures the water is never cold :) The rooms itself are very basic. not that clean everywhere. We used to this kind of rooms in India. Good for low-budget backpackers. But for 150 tb you can get better rooms.
-- large rooms : for 600 tb you get a large room with 1 kingsize double bed and 1 single bed ( so it is also perfect for 3 people-same price !) Beautiful furniture, tv (only thai channels), fridge, a/c (powerfull one), clean and spacious bathroom, hot water. Beds are good.
Free WiFi in all the rooms we used.
The provide free coffee and tea in the morning, no restaurant. But there are a lot of restaurants just around the corner. When you turn left you can buy fantastic food at the afternoon market. We bought fish, sate etc there for just a few bath. The thai love it when you try and taste there food and it is just perfect.
Bikes for rent around the corner (right) for just 30 tb each day. Also a laundry at the same place (5 hours wash and dry for 30 tb a kilo) and you can buy your bustickets there for a good price.
The sell drinks for a 7/11 price. Large chang beer for just 45 tb etc etc The staff can give you some nice information about the city. Just ask them. Friendly staff.
The historical park is just 1 minute walk from the guesthouse so you have the best starting point in the city. Go to the park as early as possible, return to the questhouse at 11:00 am and go to the park again in the afternoon. That way you avoid the crowd. A lot of busses arrive from 09:00 - 10:00 am. That time we took our bikes and went to the wats outside the citywalls. Dont miss the ones at the north site of the city, the are beautiful.
Next time we come here again for sure. Great place for a great price.
