Ok so just know that this hotel has the BEST PHOTOGRAPHERS because the rooms only look vaguely like the pictures. After seeing my room, I went back to the reviews just to make sure I booked the correct hotel. Then I spent 2 hours researching area hotels cause I was seriously gonna leave but I didn't and it turned out ok. Here is the deal: The rooms are old and the cleanliness is so-so. For instance, I found hair on my bed and the shower. There was a white smug (side-eye) on the TV. However, it was hardened so I'm gonna assume the best. the Shower window had large smug marks on the bottom.The bathroom needs re-caulking. The walls need a new coat of paint. And I'm not even going to mention the view (pictures are deceptive). Just think grungy alley. With that said, if you are just looking for a cheap and relatively clean place to stay and you don't mind sleeping on a very hard bed (even for Thai standards). This will work just fine. After spending long days in Bangkok, it was nice to come back to a very large shower and bathroom despite it being well-worn. The female staff member in the afternoon, and overnight guy were friendly. However the older male seemed rather surly. The neighborhood is convenient--after awhile you begin to ignore the seedy massage shops and ladies hollering massage every time you walk by. I recommend staying no longer than 3 nights MAX. Ultimately, I stayed because of the PRICE, the big bathroom and knowing that I would just be there to sleep.
