A typical 3* hotel with its own advantages and disadvantages. Low price is one of the main advantages. Good attitude of the staff, everything is very friendly. The disadvantages are minor, but they are also present. Sometimes there are no beach towels, then the forks in the dining room ran out and I had to wait about 10 minutes, the bathroom door seemed to swell and lopsided, but it was closing. All this, of course, is not critical, but when these little things come out a little bit every day, it is somewhat annoying. The location is quite good, it's 15 minutes to the beach, and 12 minutes to the Russian market. If desired, you can walk to the pier for 20 minutes, from where ferries go to Koh Lan.
The majority of the guests are Chinese, Russians and Indians.
The hotel is not bad. I visited it twice last year. The location is convenient, close to the Big Buddha, observation deck, night market. It's a 10-minute walk to the beach, and about the same distance to the tuk-tuk interchange. A good pool, at least half a day definitely in the shade. The breakfasts were monotonous, and I didn't take them a second time. The rooms are no longer new, but in general they are pulling for 3
I flew alone, and both times there were strange situations with the safe, once the door to the room was ajar and the safe too, things were clearly moving, but nothing was missing, most likely because there was no money in the safe, only a passport. The receptionist replied that I had forgotten to close everything myself. On the second trip, I took the camera with me and installed it in the closet on top of the safe. The only time I had no connection to the camera (perhaps wi-fi was turned off), when I returned to the room, the safe did not accept my code and I had to call the master. There was no money there again, just documents. I was afraid to leave it due to the previous situation, I carried it with me.
In general, nothing is missing, I have not found any reviews with such problems, perhaps this is my suspicion. But there is no desire to come here again precisely because of insecurity.
I like the location of the hotel, 20 minutes walk down the hill and you can come to the pier from where you go to Kolan, you also have to go to the beach from the hill, back up, but for me this is not a problem. The breakfasts are not bad, monotonous, but the choice of dishes is not bad. All good things come to an end! There is often no water, no water, and if there is a very weak pressure, the heater does not turn on. Cleaning is done poorly, we come from the sea at 3 o'clock, the room is not cleaned, it is useless to talk at the reception, they will write down the room number and that's it! The room in which we now live was not given immediately, at first they settled into a tiny one without a balcony with access to the road, I had to prove that I had a paid reservation for a completely different room. In general, the hotel is not pleasant in terms of location, but the staff is terrible! It seems that we were not expected, but we showed up🤭😄
