This property was perfectly positioned for our stay. The view across the river is lovely and the garden is well kept and a lovely space to relax in.
The room had everything we needed.

Great hotel
Very nice property in a stunning location with a beautiful riverside garden.
Rooms are basic but comfortable, hotel is in a great location for bars and restaurants in the area.
Only downside is the rooms don't have a fridge.

Definitely recommended this place for the price we got (about 550 thb for two people per night), if you are open to some southeast asian charme.
The garden is absolutely stunning to chill and have some drink after a day of exploring. The view on the river is also great. But the room itself is a little old-fashioned. You'll have a good (air conditioned) night and be able to wash yourself, but don't expect everything to be squeaky clean and be ready for the miscellaneous ant or other bug here or there.
Would go again if I could
Chambre équipée à minima mais en correspondance avec le prix de la nuitée, cependant la jolie chambre en bois montrée sur les photos n'était pas pour nous....
Par contre, emplacement plein centre très pratique, et malgré tout en retrait du bruit de la rue car au fond d'une ruelle.
Le jardin semble très bien tenu et est très agréable et apaisant.
Accueil moyen.

Would recommend shopping around the area.
Excellent location and restaurant right on the river. No refrigerator, paper thin walls and had to ask for towels, no room cleanup.

Bon rapport qualité / prix
Le personnel est tres sympa et parle un peu anglais. Le cadre de l'hotel avec la rivière est vraiment cool surtout pour manger sont petit dej ou boire un verre.
Les murs sont un peu fins mais aucun voisins ne nous a derange pendant le séjour. Le confort est a l'essentiel, un lit, une clim et une douche.
Les alentours de l'hotels sont remplis de restos, bars, massages, 7 eleven et loc de scooter.
Le resto de l'Hotel propose repas Thai ou Européen.
