Money was missing from the safe. Really do not leave money in the safe, they dragged us for $ 100 until we realized and there was nothing to prove, which in the end turned out, remember they smile at you only for your money.
We rested for 15 days in October-November 2019
Everything is very decent. Good breakfasts, clean every day, shampoo, soap are in abundance, the air conditioner works fine, the bed is sick. The pool is small, but why is it on the sea?
We liked it.
The rooms are sooooo simple. Some of them have no windows on the street at all - only in the corridor! The shower is combined with the toilet. That is, you can wash right sitting on the toilet! Condey works so-so. You can't leave anything in the refrigerator - all the electricity in the room turns off when you exit. You can't eat or drink in the lobby or near the pool! IN GENERAL! Even bought in the lobby of the hotel! There are no elevators! I was in late April-early March 20. on a hot ticket (19 tr. in 5 days with a flight). It's normal for her. But for real money, I definitely wouldn't go to it! One plus: there is a good bike rental nearby with a Russian-speaking seller, and a fairly quiet area.
THE ROOM IS 3-STAR, AND THE RATING IS 3, EVERYTHING IS NATURAL
We stayed at the hotel from November 28, 2019 to December 9, but we just returned and decided to write a review right away. When searching for a ticket, prices for 3* hotels were from 50 thousand for two, in this 3* hotel we were offered 3 options for two with breakfast for 59,000 standard room, 61,000 superior and 68,000 suites. After looking at the hotel and reviews, we realized that it was better to overpay so that we could guarantee a great room. And so it turned out that the best thing about this hotel was the room))).
We were brought to the hotel at 9 a.m., but they checked in at 14.00. We were dirty, sweaty, tired after a day on the road, and we were a little dumbfounded. It's kind of creepy to leave a suitcase in the lobby, it's theoretically possible to change into summer clothes, but when you're all sticky and dirty, it's so disgusting. I want to eat and drink, but we didn't have any baht with us, and there is no exchanger nearby. As a result, we just slept on the sofas in lobi before checking in.
This suite room is like a studio apartment. In one part there is a wardrobe (which does not really have shelves, and one part does not open, because it is propped up by a bed, i.e. you will not really use a wardrobe), a bed and a TV. In the second part there is a sofa table, an armchair and a refrigerator. The bathroom has a huge Jacuzzi, toilet, sink and shower. The room is huge, there are only 2 of them in the hotel, they are on the 8th floor, the elevator goes only to 7, then 1 floor on foot. The room is completely panoramic, you can see the mountains on one side and the sea on the other (but the truth is, you can barely see the sea, because it is far away). There is also a large window from the bathroom to the room. Slippers and a bathrobe are provided in the suite room.
The Jacuzzi is cool, but the water is terribly yellow. on the first day, we were very tired from the road, did not notice the color of the water, filled the Jacuzzi, rested in it...and in the morning, turning on the light, we saw creepy orange-yellow traces of a raid. And when the Jacuzzi was filled on the second day, we saw that the water was very yellow.
Shampoo and shower gel were given only 1 for two (it's good that they took their own with them). We were given 2 bottles of water for the thermopot and 2 bottles in the refrigerator.
A huge huge balcony, but it is forbidden to dry towels or swimsuits on it. That is, after washing your clothes after the road, and coming from the beach every day, it was just unclear where to dry things. There is a wild wind on the balcony, metal chairs covered with white paint, you can't dry them. as a result, everything was hung on hangers and on the air conditioner. But, when leaving the room, the electricity turns off, and it gets humid and hot.
The Internet in the room is normal, there is enough for correspondence in messengers, it is already more difficult to make a video call, everything freezes periodically. If you go down to lobi, everything works well there.
We read a lot about theft in the hotel, so we didn't keep anything in the safe, the money was always with us on the card.
The location of the hotel is far from the sea, there is a transfer at 10.00 to the sea and that's it, there is no return transfer, while everyone advises that starting from 11 o'clock it is dangerous and it is better not to be on the beach, i.e. there is no sense in the transfer either. We are a young couple and we walked without problems, even walked to Karon (about 5 km), and then took a bike to go to distant beaches, but if you are not ready to walk a lot or take a bike, the location of this hotel is not the best.
Upon check-in, they take a deposit, and there are bans on food and drinks throughout the hotel, otherwise they will not take it. This is a very huge discomfort. After a walk on the Banzan, or just by buying food or fruit, or even just juice, you can not bring it to the hotel. And we often used to buy food in Thailand and eat on the beach or in the room on the balcony, it is forbidden here, and as the guide told us, they then check the trash cans, if there are signs in the trash that you brought something to the room, they may not refund the deposit. We carried everything and ate, but hid it in a backpack, then checked that there was not a crumb of food anywhere, and we threw out the garbage in a separate bag on our own. It seems to be nothing complicated, but terribly uncomfortable.
The hotel has billiards (which does not work), a swimming pool and a sauna (which also does not work).
The breakfasts are quite meager, but you can eat enough. There are always 2 dishes to choose from: padtai or rice (some days potatoes with vegetables), scrambled eggs (omelet is not made), followed by cucumbers, tomatoes, cabbage and iceberg leaves and salad sauce, white bread and a toaster oven, butter and jam. Juice of 1 kind, milk and water. Pineapples (sometimes there were watermelons and pineapples). Coffee, tea, sugar.
To sum up, Thailand is our favorite country, and still the feeling of the trip was the best, the room itself was great, but I would never have returned to this hotel for the second time. We regretted that we did not buy another 3* for 10,000 cheaper.
The hotel is located away from the noisy places of Patong. For an unbiased tourist with a rented bike - perfect! Without a bike, it is very far from good and clean beaches! It is expensive to get to Karon Beach by tuk-tuk! The nearest Patong beach is very crowded and dirty. The hotel has rooms without a balcony with a view of the wall/windows of the neighboring building...It's trash!!!
I really liked the hotel..but there is one disadvantage.. It's a long way from the sea...but there is a free taxi from the hotel..at sea ... there and back... the room was cleaned every day..the staff is friendly...but tricky...breakfasts are like everywhere in threes...fruits every day...pineapples, watermelons ...They are very tasty ..we rested on the apron..and we were very unhappy with the hotel..we didn't even expect...))

A decent hotel, on the 4th line of Patong. The beach is a 20-minute walk away. Nearby there is a FamilyMart store and a couple of night mini bars. The rooms in the hotel, as you are lucky or as you agree, are both new with a bathroom, and average, and completely dead. The staff is polite, always ready to help solve various problems. They speak only English at most. The hotel has a small swimming pool (always in the shade, the sun does not reach there). And yet, tour operators do not always write this, when checking into the hotel you need to leave a deposit ($ 100 or 2000 baht). The deposit is refunded upon departure from the hotel. The deposit is not stored at the hotel, it is taken to the company's office. We managed to agree to leave a deposit in rubles, equivalent to 2000 baht. Have a good rest
We stayed at this hotel with our family during the New Year holidays in 2019. The hotel is normal for 3 stars, BUT!!! Part of our money ($300) was stolen directly from a closed safe with a digital lock. The showdown with the management did not give anything, they said that since we could not prove how much money we had originally put in the safe, then we could not prove that something had been stolen from us either, and we did not call the police. They offered to watch the video from the surveillance cameras, but this also did not give anything, since the cameras were installed on the floor only at the elevator, and our room was entered from the corridor, which was not viewed by cameras (room 2606 on the sixth floor). As a result, in addition to the stolen money, almost a day of vacation at sea and a good mood were stolen from us (((
I am sure that the employees of this hotel have established a scheme for stealing money from tourists. Be vigilant!!! Earlier, reviews on TripAdvaiser wrote about similar cases of theft at the CHANG RESIDENCE hotel, but unfortunately we did not pay attention to this and went to this hotel, because of its attractively low price.

The hotel is very good for its price. A nice and tidy room. But room 307 is terrible for the simple reason that the windows overlook the night bar, above which is the training base of the Thai Bakers. The result: you listen to music until 2-3, from 7-8 - training and the screams of Thai bakers
