Receptionist was lovely. Superb location on Khao San Road. Lovely pool. Good gym. We wanted to enjoy Khao San Road in evening so didn’t mind the loudness of the street in hotel as was out all night - if you want an early night it might not be for you ! We loved it - will stay again

We asked for a quiet room and were given a large room with balcony on floor 6. Everything worked, staff were friendly, Pool area was nice with umbrellas for shade. Location wise, it’s a 10 minute walk from the Airport bus stop ( 60 baht each way) and lust a few metres into KhaoSan road.

The hotel is in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Khaosan Road and counts with a 7eleven shop, a nighclub and a relaxing terrace with a pool and good music on. The room is unique, the bed was extra comfortable, the shower pressure was great and the staff are gentle. It was a bit loud at times, but I had already known it due to its location. You have all the amenities nearby and also a MC Donald's in place. I would stay here again!

Being here during Songkran, I expect it to be busy and it doesn’t disappoint however the sanctuary of the lobby of the hotel provided at 7:11 and McDonald’s as well as a great Irish bar upstairs meaning you could enjoy all the festivities without having to constantly walk around getting wet. Staff are very friendly. Rooftop swimming pool is excellent and the room was a little dated was comfortable.
