I had a decent experience at this hotel. The location is great, just a short walk from the beach, and the room was clean and ready for me on arrival. However, the bathroom was a bit outdated and the staff could have been more accommodating when issues arose. Overall, it offers good value for the price, but there are some areas that need improvement.

This hotel is in a great spot, just across from the beach, but be prepared for a 40-minute walk to Chaweng Noi Beach. Lots of dining and nightlife options nearby.

Overall, I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The location is really convenient, just a short walk from the beach and key areas. While my room was clean and reasonably priced, some aspects could use improvement, like the air conditioning and shower. The staff was very helpful, which made my experience better. It’s a decent choice for a budget traveler, though I believe there are better options out there if you look.

I had a decent stay at Lotus Friendly Hotel, where the cleanliness and friendly atmosphere really stood out. The location is fantastic, just steps away from the beach and local dining spots. However, the air conditioning in the room was not sufficient for my taste, and the bedding could use an upgrade. Despite these minor issues, I found it to be a good budget option, especially for a quick stopover.
