They brought us to the hotel after a ten-hour flight at 6 am, check-in after 2 pm. There was no strength to go anywhere and we settled in the lobby. Upon check-in, a deposit of 2000 baht per room is required, no other currency is accepted. The nearest exchanger worked from 10 am, so it makes sense to exchange some money at the airport. As soon as we brought 2000 baht, we were immediately given a room. At the beginning of the eleventh we settled. A room with a balcony, the windows overlook the unfinished building, along which, as it turned out later, dark personalities walk at night and look into the windows. But at night, silence, unlike rooms facing the street. The room has two beds, a wardrobe, a TV with one Russian-language channel, but we did not watch it. One chair per room and no table. There is a hair dryer, a kettle only for an additional fee (100 baht per day). The safe didn't work. There is always hot water in the shower, no insects were noticed.
Cleaned up the room every day. Well, how they cleaned up - they smeared the dirt with a mop in the corners and occasionally changed towels. Once they gave everything in huge stains from henna, we demanded to replace it, otherwise they would have also taken a fine from us for damage. We’ve heard a lot… They didn’t change the linen for 10 days, they didn’t wipe the dust even once, even though we drew patterns on it).
Beach towels are no longer given out, they give two mats per room for the entire stay. For loss and damage, a fine of 100 baht. The hotel is located on the third line, so you have to walk to the beach. The beach is big and clean. True, there are no sunbeds and umbrellas. There are many people, especially in the shade of trees. The sea is shallow, the sunset is sandy, every day there were waves. For those who do not like extreme sports and want to return home safe and sound, nothing good...
Breakfasts are now held not on the roof, but near the pool. There are not enough tables, there are not enough places for people. For breakfast, rice, noodles, soup, eggs, cereal, tea, coffee, watermelon. The range is unchanged. It is possible to swim in the pool only during breakfast, as the rest of the time the doors are closed with a chain with a barn lock.
A beautiful view of the sunset opens from the roof, but gentlemen vacationers are used to shitting where they sit, so every time we went up to the roof, we cleaned up empty bottles and cigarette butts after them...
We did not go on excursions from the tour operator, because contacted VKontakte with a Russian young man who lives in Phuket and organizes individual excursions and traveled with him. We were very satisfied, I recommend. My name is Ilya Yakovlev, maybe someone will come in handy.
Near the hotel there are many chain convenience stores, such as "7/11", where you can buy water and various useful little things. There are plenty of places to eat too. But we liked the "Barbecue Buffet" to the right of the hotel right in front of the fire station. There you pay 259 baht and eat as much as you want. They bring you a brazier and cook it yourself, even meat, even seafood, even soup. But if you don’t finish something cooked, a fine of 100 baht.
WI-FI in the hotel was a pleasant surprise. The room had enough speed to watch movies online, and to communicate via Skype with the camera.
In principle, the hotel is not bad, we can recommend it to people who are not particularly fixated on comfort)
