The hotel was chosen on the basis of price-quality. It was one of the cheap hotel options, we chose because we read a lot of good reviews and liked the rooms in the pictures. We knew about the fact that the hotel is located far from the sea, but this did not bother us, since we didn’t want to swim in Pattaya - we go to the islands for this.
Settled in quickly. The room is good, bright, spacious, as in the photo. Everything is cleaned every day. On the 1st day, our air conditioner leaked - they told the reception and the fitter immediately came and fixed everything. Breakfast is so-so - there is nothing for tea, neither buns nor cakes. Well, it's 3 stars, it's like that everywhere in such hotels. But there are many hot dishes and a choice of meat and vegetables and eggs. You can eat normally.
I was very pleased with the free Wi-Fi, since we had to take work with us (we didn’t have time to hand it in before departure, but there was an urgent order) and we had to sit in the room and work for 1 half of the day. The internet worked great and it helped a lot.

In general, we have no complaints about the hotel - the pool is good, quite large. There are almost no people in it, you can swim freely as much as you want.
Location: The hotel is located not in the tourist zone, but in the Thai quarter. This is both good and bad. Good for those who need an economical vacation option (like us). There are a lot of cheap eateries around, where you can eat for 250 baht for two with beer (one hot dish from 70-80 baht). But we also found a more economical option - right next to the hotel, opposite the market, which stands close to the hotel at the 7-11 shop, there is a Thai man who cooks soups to take away with him (or you can eat there - there are tables). The soup consists of 2 parts - the broth and the contents of the broth. Everything is prepared separately. There is only one broth, and you can choose the contents - noodles or rice with meat or dumplings. You can also eat it separately - like a broth and a second one (it packs in 2 different packages) We brought it to the room and mixed it. Disposable tableware was bought right there in the store "7-11".
One serving 30 baht. That is, they had dinner for two for 60 baht plus a bottle of Chang beer for 50 baht. Very economical, tasty and satisfying.
Distance to the sea is 40 minutes away. We didn’t use any transport, we moved everywhere on foot. Before any quarters where massage parlors, etc. minutes 15-20. If you leave the hotel and turn left past the market along a small street where there are a lot of cafes and shops, you can go to the street. Northern. There is a large Lotus supermarket and a lot of things - exchangers, banks, massage parlors and everything else. Well, further along it you can walk to all the tourist attractions.
In general, a hotel for travelers with a small budget, but who want to live in a good room or those who are going to spend more time on excursions. If the location does not bother you, then I recommend this hotel.
Well, we have already bought a 4-day tour to the island of Koh Kood (price 6.800 per person) and are waiting for Monday when we go there.
