Decent stay near the canal

superb location friendly staff helpful staff sewage smell many mosquitos open window

The location is superb. Sitting by the canal in the evenings was lovely. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I have come to this place every time I am in the area.

The sewage smell from the toilet was very unpleasant. You could still smell the toilet sewage even with many diffusers. There were many mosquitos when i checked in.

The location was ideal, close to Khao San Road, yet peaceful. The staff were friendly and willing to assist with anything I needed. Plus, my room was super clean, and they provided two complimentary bottles of water each day. I appreciate all services provided!
