The hotel is very traditionally Thai style right on the sea front with steps up to reception, luckily our taxi driver carried our cases up and it was raining. Our room was at the very far end of the hotel, we asked to be moved nearer to the facilities which was dont the very next day no problems.Rooms were clean, sheets changed as were towels and tea tray replenished also bottles of water. Ok it's one of the old hotels and a bit ruff here and there. It didn't take way from its charm. Pool and surrounding areas were beautiful, and there were plenty of sunbeds, pool towels provided. However, the tiles surrounding the pool were ultra slippy when wet and boiling hot, always wearing shoes. We did see 2 elderly gentleman fall one needing stitches in his head. The staff were friendly and helpful all very young. My only real criticism was the steps, particularly to the dining room, as we were entering the rainy season they were ofter wet and made negotiating them very precarious, could do with some handrails. When you got to the dining room the breakfast was tops, lots of choice, with lots of fresh fruit and an egg station for however you wanted your eggs. The hotel was on the edge of the resort making it nice and quiet, bars shops pharmacy and restaurant were within a couple of minutes walk away, all in all a lovely stay, we had a good relaxing time there and would return.
