The staffs are excellent here. Room-service was very fast & available till 21:30pm. Bathroom has interesting setting. A little FYI: No conditioner but shampoo & shower gel. The location is a bit tricky to find both on the map & on the road. It tucks in & away from the main road which is good for sleeping. We were told if there’s a big group (tour/event) it will be hard to get a taxi. There were no event or group during our stay but it seemed challenging to get a taxi anyway as the hotel staff help shuttled us out in a 6 passengers golf cart to the main road & flagged down a ride for us. Overall good experience here.

Avoid this one

I'd recommend avoiding this hotel. I have a factory nearby and the staff there recommended it; I have advised them to stop sending people here. The room was dirty (stains on sheets, "residue" in toilet), the wifi didn't work (they sent an IT guy to my room who was there for 20 minutes, who eventually got it working, only to have it fail again 5 minutes later), I couldn't get a taxi to Bangkok and missed a meeting. I tried to walk to Starbucks in the morning and security stopped me at the gate and resisted letting me leave. I just walked past her and she took a bunch of photos of me. Hard pass.

朝食のバインキングが美味しいです。 近くにスタバとバーガーキング、セブンイレブンがあります。 以前はカートがあって、スタバの入口前まで送ってくれるサービスがあったけど、無くなってましたね。 コロナで利用客が減ったからかな？ 入り口までちょっと距離があるから、それが不便かな。

Not a pleasant stay the second time around

This was the second time I stayed there but my stay was not so good. First on arrival i was asked to stay in a room with small twin beds when i had reserved one with a king bed. Secondly when i checked in there was a dead cockroach in the bathroom which is not very pleasing. Thirdly no toiletries which is surprising considering even average hotels offer the basic stuff. The front desk hardly speak english so its very difficult to communicate with them even to ask for an iron for my clothes. I wanted to stay there since its very close to where i have work but given a choice i would not want to stay there again unless the service and cleanliness improves.

No problems with stay but a stop over hotel

It's OK for a stop over but you would not want to stay here very long. It's off a dual carriageway so one way or another it's u turn time. Hotel runs a shuttle bus to the main road, Burger King there and a short walk to a 7-11. Good swimming pool, nice to have separate area to watch TV in the room. Should have been a microwave but was not.
