Pros:

The A/C room was nice with everything you need although we had to ask more toilet paper all the time because only a few rolls were provided for many days. Soap was also only two small bars for five days total. No views from our balcony although many had reviewed they liked the views. A/C worked well, clean sheets and towels and room. Common areas were messy and did not look very nice.

Lovely hotel
Pros:

I really enjoyed my 4 nights here in Pai. The room is clean with a nice belcony and view on top floors. The hosts are very friendly and wifi quick. There is a coffee shop at front and free instant coffeeand bananas in lobby which is nice. The location is perfect close to walking street. A good place to stay for a budget in Pai.

Riittävän hyvä
Pros:

Hieman huithapeliasenteella operoitu ihan mukava ja siistihkö betonikuutiohotelli. Respahenkilökuntaa ei juuri vierailun aikana näkynyt, sisäänkirjautuakseen piti jopa soittaa ja tiedustella missä luuraavat. Paikan turvallisuus siis hieman kyseenalainen.
Huone ok, vähän kulahtanut, samoin kph, mutta riittävän siisti. Wifi hyvä.

Very nice staff but unfair treatment
Pros:

Booked and paid for. When checking in, the room was downgraded for the room with half the price. Very damp and smelly, but the staff are very polite while offering no real solution. It was sad and unexpected start for this trip. Lucky I booked only one night to see if I like it first.

Fantastic place to stay in Pai. Staff/Owner is super friendly with great English. Hammock area is a great place to chill. Rooms have everything you need, ac and hot water work a treat. Not a single complaint. One of the better places I’ve stayed on my travels.

Loving the Pai life!
Pros:

We really enjoyed Pai as it had so much to offer! You definitely should rent a scooter to get about. The hotel was quick and easy to check into. The owner works very hard. However the hotel was a little dated and could do with some cleaning in the bathroom. Our beds were comfy and we had an amazing view! Great location as if was 5minute drive away from everything! We loved the night market too! Amazing street food! I didn’t like the fact the owners dog constantly barked at motor cycles and wasn’t friendly towards guests. However a lot of time and love has gone into the hotel.

Beware of hotel description - overstated
Pros:

This hotel is totally overstated in the description and by the photographs. The reception do not speak English and the hotel is very poor. Room looks out over some adjoining building roofs. Room is concrete with little comfort or feeling of security. Bathroom had ants. Breakfast appeared to be served in the alleyway leading to the rooms. We didnt stay here and found much better accomodation for very similar price nearby. Look again before chosing.

Lots of ants
Pros:

This would have been a lovely place to stay if the room wasn’t full of ants. We booked to stay here as was cheap for a private room. We booked a double bed room and were given a twin (two single beds) we didn’t mind and there was a slight language barrier so didn’t worry about sorting it out. The room itself was good and spacious and In a good location. However there was lots of ants inside the room in clusters all over the bedside table bathroom and on the beds. Kept getting bitten by them through the night.

Great little place
Pros:

Stayed for two nights, the bed was super comfortable, it was clean and quite. Hot shower worked great and the water pressure was strong.
We will definitely go back and stay there next time we come back to Pai.

Nice Place
Pros:

The room is very nice and clean, staff are helpful. Disagree with what the other people say about rude and unfriendly staff. Location is perfect as it is a few steps away from walking street. However, it's quiet enough at night. We didn't try the breakfast. I would stay here again.

rude and unfriendly staff
Pros:

upon visiting pai, when we got there and started looking for accommodation, after looking at TripAdvisor we decided to go see this place. we wish we hadn't, the owner and staff were so rude, it was like they didnt want us there, we never felt so unwelcome, we left quickly and found other accommodation with lovely people there.

Alone in the hotel...
Pros:

I don't usually submit reviews of anything,
But i just downloaded this app just to do this one.
The room isn't too bad I must admit.
But there is the manager, or atleast the woman at the reception...
You'll be lucky to find a smile a her face (I've seen one in four days), she doesn't speak english (I think she understands no more than 10 words, like price, room, motorcycle,..)
Oh yeah let's talk about motorcycles, there is no parking in the hotel, so obviously i park my motorcycle outside. She probably made me change my parking around 5 times in 4 days. Last one is about 20min ago (It's 6:40am btw), she knocked at my room while i was asleep, woke me up with her moans including motorcycle and showing the direction of mine, still 0 signs of smile on her face.
She will ask for sure you to pay aswell before the first night you do, don't ask me why.
And i could go on being here only four days.
I'd have left after the first night if i didn't have my motocyrcle accident and an unability to move,
(You can add the lack of empathy aswell if you still need reasons not to go there)
Would never recommend the hotel.

Nice stay, quiet location
Pros:

During a motorbike tour, we stayed 1 night in this nice little hotel.
Space to park our bikes, next to their rental scooters at reception (road was empty if car parking required)
There is a small garden setting between each block, we had an upper room each. There was a balcony with chairs facing a vacant lot behind hotel.
Shower was pretty good, bed was to my liking and clean sheets, air-con was modern and worked well
No fridge in room, although I rarely use them, TV was modern flat screen.

Only a short walk down to busy streets with bars and cafe's.
We ate down by river at larger hotel

I would stay at Payi again
