      Location, price, clean room.

      Location is a big plus - close to airport bus and night market. The night market is the biggest attraction for me - great tasting food and a lot of variety. A bit too much light from the corridor at night, but it didn't fall directly on the bed and I was exhausted enough for it not to bother me. Water pressure on the low side, but nothing too bothersome. Fan room was ok, it didn't get hot or stuffy at night. Would stay here again.

      Don't go here. Rooms are crappy, had stinky towels and unwashed blanket. No wifi. They ripped me off when I asked for the cheapest way to get to the airport. They charged 300 baht for the service which turned out to be dropping me off at the bus station literally 200 meters away where you could buy the airport tickets for 100 baht.
