    A lovely and reasonably priced hotel in Kanchanapuri. The room was very clean and spacious, equipped with all modern comforts. I spent two days in room 209, and the view from the balcony was fantastic. The room rate was 600 baht per day plus a 200 baht deposit. The hotel is located very close to the night market. The reception staff, the cleaning staff, and the security personnel were all very friendly and helpful. There is a very large parking lot. Numerous restaurants and a 7-Eleven convenience store are located near the hotel. Overall, an excellent stay.

    The resort offers excellent parking, the room is well laid out and has good air conditioning and a shower, although the bed is a bit hard. The owner is very nice and the staff is very friendly. The parking is secure and convenient. For more information about Thailand tours, please follow my Facebook page "Amazing Thailand Touring ATT" or my YouTube channel "Mike FreeRider".

    Last year I happened to stay at this hotel and it seemed alright, so I spent this weekend there. To my surprise, however, it was completely different from what I remembered. First, we had to transfer the full amount to their account, even though the booking confirmation already stated this and that cash payment was only possible at check-in. Of course, they refused to acknowledge the bank fees incurred by the transfer. They claimed that check-in wasn't allowed after 6 p.m., even though they're open until late – all just excuses to avoid paying the fees. We could have simply walked up to reception without a reservation and paid for a room in cash, without any fees, as we saw another couple do after checking in. Then, the room was completely different from how it had been: it was dirty, there were no toiletries (not even toilet paper), and it was swarming with ants. There were no clean towels or toilet paper available all weekend; you had to ask for them. We found a pile of hair in the hallway on the afternoon of our arrival. We wonder if they're still there. They were certainly there when we left. The worst part, however, was that we left with countless bedbug bites all over our bodies and all the associated discomfort (itchy skin, spots, the use of special creams and antihistamines). In short: I would avoid this hotel at all costs.

    Tips for visiting hotels and resorts

    Compare the rates of online travel agencies and direct providers.

    After finding a deal on Agoda or Booking.com, you should always check the hotel's own website as well. Many Thai hotels offer a best price guarantee or extras like free breakfast when booking directly.

    Location is more important than the stars

    A well-located 3-star hotel is often better than a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, proximity to a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the desired beach is crucial.
