            Very nice place!”

            Book this hotel without any doubt if you are a party guy. Lots of bars and restaurants and 7Eleven is just infront of the hotel. The room size is small but it will do the job if you’re staying for short time or a party lover. Some rooms can be a bit noisy because it’s really close to the main road and that road is full of clubs and bars. Overall it’s a nice place with everything easy accessibility.

            The hotel was right on the main strip with lots of restaurants and shops. The room was very nice. The only thing is that it is a bit noisy at night and that you can hear the music from the main strip as well as one lady across the street who was yelling every night. But otherwise unbeatable price for this nice little hotel 👍🏻

            Value for money”

            We only stayed there one night before catching a flight from Samui. It is located in the busiest area of chaweng, that can be perfect for party goers, but if you looking for more secluded area, chaweng is not the spot for you. Having said that, the hotel is quiet and located perfectly away from the noise. only thing that let them down is the fact there wasn't hot water in the shower. they sent someone to fix it, and it was fixed but then broke again... so my partner had a cold shower. but it's not a big deal considering the hot weather. The receptionist also booked us a taxi at 6 am. Excellent service.

            Good location, close to the center of activities, and not far away from the beach. The hotel seems to be renovated recently and many things look new. They don't make-up your room unless you hang the sign on the door. Rooms are small.

            Great location for the beach and main road but the noise from the Cabaret Club and local bars goes on well after midnight and far too noisy to sleep, so unless you plan to come in after midnight give this hotel a miss.

            Reasonably priced location near the center but beware of the noise”

            The location was super noisy, not only just due to being close to the airport, but also due to the staffs and the hotel own vehicle renting business. It was impossible to rest during the day with the staffs constant chatting outside (yes the walls were thin). Every now and then they tested the motorbike for renting and the noise from bike exhausts were ... well bombarding Prepared your own water as they wont replenish daily. The price and the location were the main tradeoff for the downside of the hotel.

            Way too loud!”

            The location of that hotel is right in the center of an party area. That means until 2-3 am very loud music with bass. If you are a party goer this is a great place. If you need a quiet place no way. The hotel is however clean, and the workers very friendly. Only downside is the music.

            Avoid”

            In a very noisy area. If you plan on partying it’s fine, but not if you’re trying to get any sleep at all. Staff was very rushed as they came knocking on my door at 11 (even though check-out is at 12) and my request to store my luggage was frowned upon. Not a good experience and I would avoid.

            This small family hotel has great potential but yet it’s main problem is the the small room is planned wrong as well. Although is not pricy for me it wasn’t fun to spend more than 1 night there.
