I found the location quite convenient. It was approximately a 15-minute walk to khao san road. i really appreciated the quiet atmosphere at night, despite being in the city centre. the king room was very spacious and clean (the bed was especially large!).

The room had a lively design and felt spacious. We booked a beautiful king room and felt it was worth the cost. I had a beautiful view of the pool from the balcony (very chill!).

The room was not soundproofed well enough for me. I faced the main road on the 5th floor and heard every vehicle. The sirens of emergency services disturbed me every night.
