Categories

Cleanliness
6.5
Mixed: many guests mention clean rooms, but multiple reports of shared bathrooms being dirty, presence of cockroaches and issues with bathroom maintenance lower the score.
Service
8.2
Generally positive: staff frequently described as friendly and helpful and a responsive in-house team (chef praised), though a few reviews mention rude staff in specific incidents.
Location
8.5
Strong: repeatedly praised for proximity to the beach, restaurants, markets and local pier; overall one of the hotel's clear strengths.
Room Quality
7
Mixed: rooms are often described as spacious with balconies and sea views, but some are outdated, need refurbishment, and access via narrow stairs can be inconvenient.
Amenities
6.5
Below average: several guests note missing amenities (no kettle, limited beverage options, some rooms lack AC), plus complaints about animals kept in small enclosures affecting perception.
Value for Money
8.8
High: many reviewers explicitly call this great value or excellent for a limited budget — good price/quality balance for its tier.
Food and Beverage
7.2
Generally positive: breakfast and the in-house kitchen receive praise, though offerings are basic (no cappuccino/kettle) and limited.
Overall Experience
6.5
Mixed overall: good location, friendly staff and strong value are offset by shared-bathroom issues, amenity gaps, stairs and animal-cage concerns, leading to a somewhat uneven stay.

Pros:

Sengene var fantastisk, og personalet så søde.
Og til prisen for overnatning, er det også rigeligt.

Cons:

Værelset kunne godt trænge til en overhaling. Og igen til prisen er det hvad at forvente.

Pros:

the room was very big and comfortable, with nice balcony and sea view. good hot water and pressure. AC worked well, there is also fan. There was a rack for clothes, mini fridge, and daily drinking water supply.
I'ts basic and good value for the price.
Location is good.

Cons:

(I wouldn't say "wonderful" as the title [picked by Booking] states. It was decent and good accommodation for my 2 nights at Hua Hin. Hence the high score; for the price and my needs it was 9.)
stairs are a bit narrow and uncomfortable (I was in the third floor), use with caution.
