Outstanding hotel. I wonder why this is listed as a two-star hotel; it definitely is three-star . It’s a five story new building with shiny floors and walls and has an elevator. Rooms are not like hotel rooms, rather they are studios. It has a separate glass door enclosed kitchen area with a counter, sink, fridge, water boiler for coffee, dishes, cups, glasses, fork, spoons, etc. There is no stove or microwave, but I think one can ask, though I didn’t explore this aspect. Housekeeping is everyday and they replenish water, coffee, and also all towels, sheets, soap, shampoo, etc. All staff have always smiles on their faces in this Land of Smiles.
The beach may appear about 500 yards on the map, but there are designated places to cross the road and that makes the walking distance about double. This hotel is just 200 yards from a big mall, The Village Market Mall where there is a huge food court inside with lots of lots of eating choices and inexpensive. In addition, every evening, there is outside open air street food stalls with live music. Very lively atmosphere. At the beach, there is a Kite Surfing School and very pretty scene dotting the sky with kites.
Overall, don’t look for any other place, except this. A steal.
