Lovely new property! Chose this place because it was close to where friends of mine live -- it's in a suburban neighborhood of brand-new little mansions, older family homes, and somewhat too many vacant parcels of land no doubt being held by speculators riding the Thai real estate bubble . . . but I digress. Those desiring a quiet and pretty hotel need look no farther. You'll almost never see a tuk-tuk or a sorngthaew, and taxis in Chiang Mai are few and far between, but if you don't have a car, no worries -- Uber and Grabcar drivers are thick on the ground, and cost less than taxis anyway. No breakfast service, although there's a small basket of goodies in the room (e.g., instant noodles) for which there's no minibar charge! -- and there is a food delivery service. But with a host of shamelessly cheap and shamelessly good noodle restaurants and cafes in the immediate vicinity, why bother? Just one thing to beware of: Liquid hand soap and shampoo are kept in cute little ceramic vases, and I was a bit worried about dropping one while in the shower, so make sure your hands aren't soapy while handling them . . .
