Cons:

Não ter a opção de café da manhã.

Ottima posizione, carino e pulito.
Pros:

Camere pulite e letto molto ampio e comodo. Molto bello e abbastanza spazioso il bagno, tutto in marmo: sembra di stare in un hammam. La posizione è ottima: proprio in centro ma in una strada tranquilla. Ottimo per me che viaggiavo da sola.

Cons:

Purtroppo, trattandosi di un'abitazione tradizionale, le stanze sono davvero molto piccole (nonostante il letto enorme) e non c'è spazio per poggiare nulla.

Charment proper hotel met de perfecte ligging
Pros:

Het was een enorm fijn hotel met zeer vriendelijk personeel en propere kamers. Compact maar alles wat je nodig hebt. De ligging is perfect om het centrum te ontdekken.

As I say, the location is really good, but other other things mentioned above let it down.
Pros:

I liked the location very much indeed. It was great. The staff were nice, and friendly.

Cons:

My room was very small the lock on the door was very difficult to open and to lock. I asked if perhaps some WD40 could be applied and, although they said they had looked at it and done that, it was still very difficult to operate. I didn't dare lock it from the inside in case I couldn't then get out!
Also, the television didn't work at all...

Great location but definitely not boutique
Pros:

Location was excellent.
We had the only room with a balcony which was a real bonus.

Cons:

Most of the staff were indifferent and after check in mostly ignored us when we came in and left the hotel.
We stayed during a weekend so it was pretty noisy.
2 small bottles of water on arrival. Charged for refills.
Found medication (pills) under the telephone on one of the bedside tables. Informed the hotel and received standard response.

古蹟居家體驗
Pros:

櫃檯的小姐很親切，工作人員都很友善。
地點離雞場街很近很方便，但因為太靠近熱區所以出入都是堵車的狀態。

Cons:

房間所有白色相關備品都是白灰色的，實在有點😅，建議自己帶洗臉毛巾。
因為是老房子，對聲音敏感的要自備耳塞。

Pros:

Самый центр, но тихо, нет шумных ресторанов и музыки рядом. Кровать мягкая, в общем удобная. В комнате чисто, кондеционер работал хорошо, приятно что его можно оставить работать, когда уходишь.

Cons:

Размер комнаты крошечный. Два человека и два чемоднана было тесно. Застиранные старые серые полотенца.

Good, but very basic hotel - though that was reflected in the very inexpensive cost.
Pros:

Great location - really central to the old part of town.

Cons:

Very small room. No breakfast available at the hotel (though we found a really good cafe just around the corner).
Also, they took 100 Baht as a deposit against the state of the room, and 3 weeks after our stay they have not yet refunded it to my Visa card as they had promised. Although that’s only £18, so not overly important, it is annoying, and I would advise anyone else staying there to take care to pay the room deposit in cash, so that you can be sure to get it back as you check out!
