A great hotel in every sense of its existence. There are a lot of advantages. Firstly, it is well located: near the seafood market and Bangla Road. The rooms are clean and cozy. Breakfast is served at a nearby restaurant. The food is simple but delicious. There is a laundry room, 80 baht kg of linen, consider it a freebie. Five steps away there is an excellent massage parlor and a post selling tours to the islands, excursions, etc. (I recommend taking tours there, not tour operators! The prices are an order of magnitude lower, but the quality is absolutely the same). As it is, TAI is a paradise from which you do not want to leave and want to return as much as possible)
The hotel is within walking distance from the main locations: the beach is about 8 minutes away, the night market (seafood, fruit, ice cream) is 10 minutes away, Big C is 10 minutes away, 7/11 is opposite the hotel, makashnitsa and a cafe nearby.
The hotel is quite decent, the rooms are clean, the staff is very friendly-they help and answer all questions.
I'm only taking the star off for the lack of a pool and for room 103 (don't take it if possible)...We're not picky, but we asked to be moved to another one after a couple of sleepless nights (room on the ground floor, audibility 💯). Wifi in the rooms catches perfectly
