"I had such an amazing stay at Secret Corner. The room and common areas are spotless, and the rooftop was such a great spot! I found myself spending my mornings on the rooftop doing work, and spending evenings on the rooftop socializing. The staff was also incredibly friendly and helped me plan some of my day to day itineraries. I would come back to Secret Corner next time I'm in Chiang Rai in a heartbeat."
