Great boutique hotel experience.
Pros:

This was the first hotel we stayed at on our first trip to Thailand. The location was great. We could easily visit the different sights, hop on a river boat or metro, and quickly go to the different areas of the city.
For breakfast the terrace restaurant served a great breakfast at a very fair price then, at dinner, there was a spectacular view of Wat Arun with all the lights and the food was truly delicious. — large portions at a very fair price.
Now let’s talk about the bed - it was soooo comfortable!!! Lots of great pillows and sheets were high quality. We had a room with a view of the river and also Wat Arun. We were worried it would be loud at night but everything died down by 22:00 and we slept like babies!
The staff, especially Pink, were the best ever!! They were authentic and genuinely cared that their guests were well taken care of. They arranged for a driver to take us to Ayutthaya and answered any and all questions we had in a refreshingly helpful way.
We felt well-cared for and our stay was memorable. We’d recommend our friends to stay there and, next time we come to Bangkok, we’ll be sure to stay there, too.

Good for a night or 2 to enjoy immediate area attractions.
Pros:

Good location, close to flower market and Wat. Reception staff very attentive to guests.

Cons:

Area restaurants, massages, amenities in immediate area very pricey, view room was not as advertised as we were in 1st floor with building, restaurant, and awning blocking views. Should not advertise as view-should say very limited views.
