Most underrated and unusual place and apart from the bed, my favorite
Pros:

I loved the property. Although they were containers the whole place had a homely and welcoming feel about it. One of the most interesting places we’ve stayed. I only gave a 9 for comfort because I found the bed too hard but that applies to most of Thailand it seems but they have obviously tried to soften it slightly with toppers.

Cons:

The bed. Too hard and I was so uncomfortable I hardly slept.

Pros:

Le concept rétro box est sympa. Le petit déjeuner compris et la piscine sont un bon plus.

Cons:

Les chambres étaient vraiment petites. Nous voyageons pourtant en sac à dos et nous n avions pas de place pour les poser ouvert. Seul point négatif.

Pros:

Passer une nuit est amusant dans ce concept de container... une piscine pour ceux qui souhaitent est un plus

Cons:

En réalité etant bien placé car non loin de la rue principale ou tout se passe , le bruit de cette derniere reste présente ... sans etre catastrophique, pour ceux qui ont le sommeil leger ce ne sera pas l'idéal. Pour une nuit c etait parfait

Meget fint sted at overnatte, meget hjælpsomme og bestilte både taxa og billetter til færgen mod Koh tao
Pros:

Super god kommunikation med stedet på vej der til.

Cons:

Det rum vi bookede var kun en stor seng klar og sovesofaen var ikke klar og der var ikke sengelinned så vi selv kunne gøre det. Vi ankom dog også meget sent og vi kunne snildt være 2 voksne og 2 børn i den store dobbeltseng.
