To Sleep Poshtel

This place is very noisy as there are a bunch of motorcycle taxis right underneath it. I can hear all kinds of street noises and cars all night and I did not sleep at all. I will not return and don't recommend this place if you want to be able to sleep.

I arrived at 1 am for a few hours of sleep before checking out at 8 am to Don Muang Airport again. It was a nice early morning while the restaurant below Poshtel was still bustling with business which also meant that the noises will continue till further wee hours in the morning. At that moment, I was a little apprehensive and hope that my room will not be above this restaurant.

I lugged my luggage up the metal staircase and was taken aback when I pushed open the glass door, it was completely dark (total lights off). Someone sleeping on the settee, next to the glass door, started to sit up. I introduced myself as a guest for the night and she assumed her position as counter night shift staff cum security. Checking-in was easy and simple. My room was on the 3rd level and slightly away from the bustling restaurant downstairs (thank god).

The room is small with one queen size bed next to the toilet. It doesn't seem new as it is mentioned in Agoda (built-in 2019). It looks like it has been on the market for 3 to 4 years and so I attributed it to poor quality material, workmanship, and maintenance. What you see from the website is not what you will get onsite. That is basically for advertising purpose and do not expect any potted plant in the room.

The headboard for the bed is just a simple piece of chipboard wood painted in black. One side of the bed is adjoining to the wall with window while the other side has a standing fridge with 1 smaller size water bottle on top. The top of this standing fridge flat surface also acts as your bedside table. In front of the bed is a flat screen TV with only Thai channels provision.

On top of the bed had one bath towel and it was full of large patches of stain in different color tones (see picture). I reckon that it must definitely be used as a rag for soaking up stain or lay on the floor as a floor mat. I immediately went for an exchange and the half awaken staff simply went into another guest room to exchange my bath towel. I checked and although it was not completely white and without stains, it was clean.

Surprisingly, the bathroom doesn't have smell from the sewer but the drain pipe from the basin leaked onto the bathroom floor. It felt disgusted especially when after your bath and you needed to do the washing up and the drain water start splashing onto your leg. Shower pressure was good with constant hot water. WC cover was just placed on top of the WC without any fastener. So you need to do some adjustments before using it.

Air conditioning is squeaking every now and then throughout the night while the thermostat keep cutting in and out making my sleep broken up. Out of 6 hours of sleep, I don't think I have 4 hours sleep.

Breakfast is simple with only bread, jam paste and butter. Milk is provided in the fridge, and coffee and tea are in sachet for self-help. With flies flying around, I am not so motivated to help myself with the breakfast, I immediately packed and check out.

Checking out was really simple. Just handed out the key and you were done. I booked a Grab taxi with the help of the staff and off I went.

Overall, staff are helpful. But to me "To Sleep Poshtel" doesn't guarantee your sleep and it is not as posh as you see from the advertisement. I don't think I would recommend this hotel even though I get a good deal for the price. However, I still hope the management can have some quality control over their room and facilities to ensure comfortability for their guests.

The room is so small , toilet good but little smell, you have to know that the hotel in second floor so if you have old people or disable this hotel is not good , you have to take and drop your bags through the stair, the location is perfect 7/11 is so close and many restaurant are near, i have rated this hotel due to the location as its 10 minute to dung mung airport.
