I stayed in this hotel for two nights catching a plane from Bangkok airport but unfortunately due to flights problem with the protest going on in Bangkok my flights was cancelled. My comments in this hotel was presentable place for stopover but staff wasn't helpful enough. The receptionist couldn't understand and speak single English.
The price was 700 Baht for a double room, so you can't expect too much. There's a fridge and TV in the room, the bed is soft, and we slept well. The room is nicer than average residences in that area, but that might not tell much to an average American.
The pros of this hotel are price and location (if you're going to the Suvarnabhumi airport). The service is friendly (probably true about many hotels in the city).
The cons include a cheap breakfast. The egg and sausage are ok, but that's not much to eat. The rice porridge is traditional Thai food, but you have to add chili and other spices in it according to your own preferences. This is typical of thai buffets. I don't know what the coffee was made of, but Thai people only drink instant coffee if even that. So don't expect too much. After breakfast, we (4 adults) headed to a restaurant nearby and paid 120 Baht for lunch (4 portions of rice, 4 main courses). Enough to make up for the small breakfast, if you eat Thai food.
The view was not nice. There was a balcony outside the shower room and we could see the laundry of the neighboring residence building apartments hanging a few feet away. Underwear, shirts, pants, etc.
They've got 24h Thai massage service there, but the price was not announced anywhere. Most hotels have something similar but they usually declare the price, too. Didn't try that.
Hotel from hell.
We were dropped off a chaleena hotel by taxi looked ok from outside but when we went to check in they informed us that it was the hotel further down the street. It was a flea pit it smelt of dampness, it was a health and safety hazzard i would not even rate it a 1* that would be too kind. Bathroom was awful horrible shower on wall with slated flithy window above, showerhead was filthy. Breakfast was a joke a rubberised egg inedable adn half a sausage and you had to show a voucher to receive this. coffee could only be obtained by tilting and urn towards yourselves.......a big hazzard. Oh there were other choices of Asian food but even the Asians were in shock, it looked like some sort of rice porrage ugh!!!!
Do not go to this ............place I will not use the word hotel as it does not fit the cateogry. 1 night was enough we re located to the city centre at a further cost. but worthwhile. The area this doss house is in has a smelly canal no proper pavements and is very run down no Europeans so we stood out and did not feel safe. It is 30 min taxi ride to centre of Bankok.
This doss house should be shut down..................its filthy.
