Excellent value for money
Pros:

The room was large with a medium mattress bed that was very comfortable. WiFi was excellent and the bathroom and toilet was separate which prevented waiting for use. The bathroom contained A lovely bath with a shower head separate to the shower which had excellent power and fixed temperature during use. The balcony was lovely with a pool and seaview from floor 5. Floor 6 would have provided a better seaview.
The staff were very professional and extremely friendly. The receptionist Spy was always helpful and willing to engage in western banter.

Cons:

Taxis were required to get to Kata beach after 6pm which were expensive compared to other parts of Thailand.
The hotel happy hour was an hour at two different times of the day. The cocktails were two for one but you had to have the same cocktail as the second drink. There should have been some flexibility around this.

Pros:

Todo menos la ubicación, no está cerca de Kata.

Cons:

Para ir a Kata Beach hay que coger Bolt o Grab. Aunque el propio hotel pone taxi gratuito, que baja y sube con cierro horario, lo cual se agradece, pero te condiciona por los horarios.

Enjoyable stay, good value for money !
Pros:

Located up in the mountains it is just minutes away from the city, yet it is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. The food at their restaurant is absolutely amazing, we tried almost everything and were never disappointed. Service is also very good specially Tong at the reception, and the staff at the restaurant ( forgot the name of the lady with short hair).

Cons:

The wash basin was inside the room so if one hd to waah their hands or use the wash basin one would end up waking/ disturbing their partner.

Friendly staff, but not what we expected
Pros:

We stayed at the Yama Hotel for 3 days. I have to say that, besides the very friendly staff, the hotel itself was not quite what I expected.

When you first enter the hotel, it looks beautiful, modern and welcoming. Unfortunately, the rooms and especially the pool did not really reflect that same feeling. Overall, I found the hotel a bit outdated.

Cons:

We were initially assigned a room in a lower corner building. The room was very dark and had a bit of a moldy feeling. The furniture was also quite outdated and, for us, it simply wasn’t very comfortable.

However, I have to give credit to the staff. When I requested a different room, they were incredibly friendly and arranged a new room for us immediately. Our second room was on the 4th floor and was much better. It was clean, which is always very important to us, and it was perfectly fine for three people. It just wasn’t the most comfortable room for us, but that is partly a matter of personal preference.

I do think the first room needs more attention. It may have felt even more neglected because of the lack of natural light, but I would strongly recommend taking a closer look at the cleanliness and maintenance of these rooms. In particular, the ceiling, corners, kitchen cabinets and windows could use some attention. Some of these things were quite shocking to see.

The breakfast was okay, with a reasonable variety of hot and cold dishes. The orange juice, however, was disappointing. The breakfast staff were definitely a highlight! Special thanks to Pui, Golf and the lovely lady making the eggs. Thank you for always greeting us with a smile!

One small thing that was disappointing: I lost my hotel key card during a hectic day and was charged 300 baht for a replacement. I understand that there may be a charge, but 300 baht felt quite excessive.

Overall, we had a nice stay, mainly because of the friendly and helpful staff. However, for us, three days was enough. The hotel has a lot of potential, especially because of its beautiful entrance and overall concept, but I think some of the rooms and facilities could really benefit from updating and better maintenance.
