Pros:

Excellent staff and facilities. Area outside is a little rough but not bad. Many restaurants and markets within walking distance as well as the beach. I recommend having the Bolt app for taxi service.

Pros:

1. The room service was bad. They do not re supply the basics like coffee, toilet paper.
2. Bathrooms have mold; I don’t believe they clean them
3. The food was insipid and horrible.
4. The batteries in the remotes are dead

fine for that price
Pros:

Except it wasnt very clean when i arrived, and i had to vocaly tell them to clean when i wanted that , i thought it was quite allright..
I didnt eat at hotel, or use the outside facilitys , as the beach was a 10min walk away, and was very nice .. then again, i like to not be bothered , so for me it was the best out of the 3 hotels i tried in pattaya..

I would avoid / Don’t use balcony/ don’t eat breakfast/ Ghosts roam haha
Pros:

We Wouldn’t stay here again,
The security guard on the gate left his post to show us around the room on 8th floor and around the pool, strangely we saw not one other guest and we were the only car in the car park . hotel was ghostly quiet even going out and back we saw not one other person, the following morning we went down for breakfast and wasn’t suprised that we were the only ones there .

was small paper wax cups for coffee , the water boiler never stoped trying to boil, so i gave up .

A waiter brought the pre ordered breakfasts that we had to choose on booking the day before.

The breakfast looked fair tbh but the whole thing was stone cold , it could of been cooked yesterday .

nothing had even been warmed up ,
we decided to check out at 8:45am as the whole hotel seemed to spooky .

they say not far from the beach but i’m happy i had my own transport as 1/2 a mile walk one way would be a pain on those walkways in the heat .

the room was a fair price and clean although do not use the balcony as its only to get you to rent with a balcony please do not lean on the rails they are flimsy and a Tragedy waiting to happen.
it’s a long way down.

Was no refund offered on breakfast nor any apology
If only i’d seen this review before i wouldn’t of booked haha

Great for the price. Especially the pool
Pros:

Pool is awesome staff is great. Only issue was our room wasn’t cleaned daily and barely get any toilet paper. If walking street is your main plan you’ll be a bit far to go there daily. If jomtien beach is in your plans it’s only a couple block walk.

Pros:

The king size bed was actually 2 twin mattress’s that you kept falling in the cracks. I was charged for a glass that broke since they don’t have plastic/paper cups.

long stay
Pros:

I stayed in two different rooms. The first was nice but the second room on the 3rd floor as shown was the better of the two. I really liked my stay here and I would definitely do it again. The pool/s are certainly interesting and kids seem to really enjoy them. There were always people swimming but it was never crowded. 7-11 is close by and there is good street food just in front of it. The beach is a bit of a walk but there are some shops along the way. Sonia Residence seems to be a good value for the money.

Terrible...deserves no stars
Pros:

If I could give zero stars I would.
Where to start.....advertised with kitchenette yet no cooktop, no plates, bowls only 2 cups. No cutlery, not even a spoon.
Bathroom...door won't close with pulling and banging hard. Toilet seat broke and hanging off. Rusty TP holder. Bum gun was disgusting with rust and stains. Very dirty rim in toilet bowl. Rusty/dirty grout in shower. Dirty walls. Broken/hanging down light surrounding mirror. Broken faucet can swivel it around. Dirty louvers.
Room...only 2 flat pillows, dirty curtains, dirt down side of sofa. After 3 days of no room cleaning Had to keep asking for room cleaning and towel change.
Staff...unfriendly staff at reception, ignored, ability to communicate in English even a little non existent. Spent most (90%) of time on their phones. Lots of staff sitting around on phones.
Restaurant always seemed closed. Always in the dark.
Hall and elevators dirty and needs cleaning.
Drive/walkway up to reception was like a back alley...dark rough walkway.
Common area and reception very dark and dingy...not welcoming.
One of if not the worse hotel we have ever stayed in. Do not believe pictures on Hotel.com. Scam.

För mycket barn
Pros:

Verkade vara ett hotell för barnfamiljer i första hand, inte så lämpligt för par eller singel som vill slippa störande gapiga barnungar, annars ok.

Pros:

Petits déjeuners exécrables.Je pense que nous n'étions pas les seuls à partager ce sentiment car le second jour il n'y avait que nous dans la salle.
Pour les jours suivants, je ne sais pas car nous n'y sommes pas retourné !!!!
Nota: Travaux dans la résidence à 8h00 du matin et une fois durant le séjour notre chambre n'a pas été faite.

ใหม่ดีครับ รวมๆแล้วจัดว่าดี
Pros:

อาหารเช้าดูยังบริการไม่ทัน เช่นซอสควรมีทุกโต๊ะ
แต่ชอบมากที่สามารถไปเล่นสวนน้ำของคอนโดได้
