Für einen kurzen Trip noch Chiang Mai völlig ausreichend.
Pros:

Das Personal war super nett. Die Lage ist sehr gut. Man kommt schnell in die Altstadt und abends zu den Nachtmärkten

Cons:

Das Hotel ist bisschen in die Jahre gekommen. Die Zimmer sind an manchen Ecken schon echt halt und abgenutzt. Der Duschkopf könnte mal ausgetauscht werden. Komisch fanden wir auch die unterschiedlichen Fliesen in Badezimmer und die Bedienung der Klima Anlage. Frühstück war ok, aber nichts besonderes.

Pros:

Very clean, new building with espresso maker, desk and scale.

Détente
Pros:

Le cadre , le ruissellement de l’eau, la piscine, la décoration, la gentillesse du personnel , l’emplacement

Cons:

Le côté bruyant de la climatisation de la chambre mais c’est un détail car il est possible de la stopper et la température est agréable dans la chambre sans Clim

נחמד מאוד
Pros:

המיקום היה מצויין. קרוב להכל ברגל
הצוות חביב ונחמד

Cons:

היו הרבה שלטים של אזהרות בעברית, הרגשנו שזה מכוון מאוד אלינו אז על כל דבר נזהרנו לעשות שחלילה לא יתפרש כחוסר נימוס.
ברור שזה שלא מכוון אלינו אבל בגלל שזה ספציפי בעברית זה גם להכליל את כל האוכלוסיה הישראלית שהרוב בסדר

Spacious place to stay
Pros:

The room was very spacious. Staff was very friendly. Location could not be more perfect. So close to the old city but very quiet. Breakfast was good as well.

Good location. On the down side hotel furniture needs to be refurbished and Service could have been much better
Pros:

Hotel was tucked in a cozy Soi which drowned passing traffic noises away from the Main Street. Accessibility to old city was within walking distance and centralised to the river, ninman area and bus and train station.

Cons:

There’s a lack of staff’s awareness on helping guests with the luggage or holding doors when checking in or out of the hotel. Facilities though clean, was a little run down such as bed frame corner was peeling. Doors to the mini fridge and clothes cabinet was not properly dusted. The body wash at the bath room was not replenished one day. My request to the concierge staff for additional drinking water was not fulfilled and had to call them again on the matter

Pros:

Overall, a pleasant hotel with large, well-equipped rooms, though the air conditioning is slightly audible. The breakfast is basic but definitely sufficient.

Cons:

The staff tends to be on the reserved side and seems a bit cautious. There are signs written in Hebrew gently reminding guests to keep noise levels down and not to take food outside, which gives the feeling that they are somewhat guarded regarding Israeli tourists.

위치는 좋은데 건물 전체가 축축한 수영장 딸린 문화체육센터 같은 호텔
Pros:

숙소 위치가 타패게이트와 가까워서 걸어다니기 매우 좋습니다. 인근에 세븐일레븐과 로띠맛집이 있는 것도 장점입니다. 객실 크기는 생각보다 넓고 쾌적합니다. 화장실과 샤워실도 넓고 좋아요

Cons:

처음 배정받은 방에서 곰팡내가 심하게 나서 머리가 아팠습니다. 침대시트랑 베개가 눅눅한 정도였어요. 그래도 밤늦은시간에라도 말씀드리니 금방 방을 바꿔주셨어요. 다만, 새로운 방에서는 남자 스킨냄새가 진하게 났습니다. 하루 지나서 빠지긴 했지만 그다지 좋은 경험은 아닙니다. 호텔 1층 중앙부터 분수인지뭔지가 있어서 건물 전체가 습한 느낌이 나는게 딱 동네 문화체육센터 느낌입니다.

Pros:

מלון מצוין, ארוחת בוקא ממש נחמדה,מכינים חביתות ביצים קשות. יש ירקות גבינה צהובה טוסטי, חמאה פירות , קרואסונים,פנקייק.. חדאים נוחים. מיטה וכרית מאוד נוחים
אחלה מלון.

Cons:

ביקשתי מפתח נוסף לחדר של הילדים ,אמרן שאם ילך לאיבוד מחייבים 300 באט.
אם יש כתם במגבות או בסדינים שלא יורד הם מחייבים.
הם בודקים את החדר בעזיבה ורק אז מחזירים את הפיקדון.
