Pros:

We picked Ban Kru Ae because of its location close to Don Muang Airport as we had an early flight. It was so much more. Set in a traditional area, all the neighbours and shopkeepers were friendly. Our room was spotless and comfortable. Lovely outside seating areas. The highlight however was Professor Ae, a mine of fascinating information on Thai culture, language, history.

Cons:

Nothing

Une adresse à ne pas manquer
Pros:

Nous avons passé une nuit chez le Professeur Ae. Il nous attendait comme si nous étions des amis de longue date. La chambre est petite mais propre. La maison a vraiment son style Thaï . Nous avons apprécié le calme qui règne autour de la maison, la jolie petite maison Thaï le petit déjeuner Thaï, omelette, pain grillé, thé ou café et fruits. Et bien sûr la sympathie du Professeur Ae. Tout était prêt quand nous nous sommes levés. Il nous a permis d'économiser sur le prix du taxi en appelant un VTC. Moitié prix par rapport à la veille au soir. 200 baths le soir, 100 le matin. C'est un homme charmant qui aime discuter avec ses hôtes. Une adresse à garder en mémoire.

Cons:

Rien.

Always a home away from home in Don Maung
Pros:

This is the best Homestay with sweetest host you’ll ever meet. Guru Ae is a host with the most infectious joy for life and deep care for people.
I dropped my passport when I went to the local shop, Ae posted it on the local Don Maung facebook group and I had it back 16 hours later!!
The community people involved were all so kind and happy. It’s a great neighborhood full of characters that all come by to say hi and has excellent food and a local market a few minutes walk.

BanKruAe 🇹🇭 Guest House
Pros:

L'emplacement de la Guest House est intéressant afin d'accéder à l'aéroport de Don Muang.
Le quartier abritant la maison d'hôtes est résidentiel et calme. L'accès à la rue principale menant à l'aéroport est assez rapide (à pied); le quartier dispose d'un marché couvert très sympa 😉👌!
... Enfin, le maître des lieux est adorable et très attentionné envers ses hôtes 🙂🙏!!

Cons:

... Les moustiques sont très actifs au sein du patio ouvert, surtout en soirée.
... Les chambres du bas (1 chambre individuelle et un dortoir) ne sont pas très lumineuses; elles donnent sur le patio, sans réel accès à la lumière du jour...🙂 !!

Pros:

Super host! Really friendly owner and helpful. We arrived late and next day he prepared for us an amazing breakfast before we were leaving to the airport. The accomodation is really nice, you have everything what you need just 10 - 15 minutos from DMK airport by Grab. Really recommended.

Cons:

Everything was good.

Pros:

Мы как будто побывали в гостях у друзей на одну ночь. Хозяин был настолько мил, что организовал для нас транспорт до острова (и назад!), а это 3х часовая поездка на 5 человек (сложно самим найти машину, договориться о приемлемой цене). Был с нами на связи и заботился как о своих друзьях! Спасибо!

Pros:

This hostel is owned by the nicest most welcoming person I've met on our month trip through Thailand. He made us feel at home when we needed a good rest before heading to the airport in the morning. He was so helpful, guided us with information and gave us some fruit as we were leaving early. My son loved the bananas thank you so much for everything we will return for sure!
Tip: use grab or bolt to get there, it's cheaper than the airport taxis! Just a short drive away.
