Perfect for our needs and close to beach, bars and
Please bear in mind that the background to our trip was that southern Thailand was in the middle of massive storms that were causing a lot of destruction. We arrived from a long flight and all we needed was a simple place to rest up for 2 nights before moving on.
That the power was on, a/c and WiFi working was a minor miracle. The room was dry and perfectly clean.
Facilities in the room were quite basic but I did not expect anything else. For example there was one small wardrobe, but I would not have needed wardrobe space as I did not intend to unpack. The room was large enough to leave our bags on the floor.
The bathroom, although basic, was clean and perfectly acceptable. The shower was hot; what more do you need?
The bed was massive and the sheets were clean. On the back of the door was a certificate to say the mattress had been professionally cleaned.
The staff were wonderful (but then I find that Thai people are universally delightful).
The Shades restaurant and bar was 20m away across the road, right on the beach.
The hotel organised a taxi to take us to the ferry pier. On that journey we saw washed out properties, mud slides and some homes destroyed; we, on the other hand, were dry, comfortable and safe.
We would stay here again.
