I visited this hotel in March 2013. Before that, I read a lot of negative reviews, and was already driving with the appropriate mood: something must be some kind of catch.
We drove from the airport for more than three hours, since this hotel was the last in our group. We went to the reception: there are no places. They offered places in other buildings, but not the main one. The hour was expected. An hour later, our suitcases were still moved to the rooms (I have 9 floors). But they said that there were no rooms available.
I liked the number, a photo has already been posted here: I had this one or a similar one. Most importantly, a working fridge and kettle. There is a shower, but neither a cabin nor a bathroom is provided: you get up on the floor and wash yourself like that. The water immediately went down the drain. Naturally, the bathroom was always damp and it was impossible to dry things there. Bathrobes hung in the closet, which I did not touch, two towels were always on the shelf. The towels are not new, one of them was written with a pen RU or RW. What would that mean?

The pool at the hotel is small, a Russian girl "opened" it to me on the last day of my stay. Practically took her by the hand.
The laptop confidently caught the Jomtien network, but at the reception they told me that WI FI was not working.
The restaurant opened its doors at about 6.20. I have never seen such a poor assortment for breakfast. I took rice (if I had time, with vegetables), sliced ​ ​ u200bu200btomatoes and cucumbers. I never had enough cupcakes, but there were plenty of pieces of unripe pineapple. Well, there were greens too. Sometimes there was noodles, there were always small sausages and ham. On the last day, the restaurant apparently decided to give me a "compliment" from the chef: a cockroach ran up to my glass and tried to get into my "upee". You always had to get up for breakfast at the opening, otherwise the Chinese would take everything apart in a noisy crowd.
In general, a relatively normal hotel for a Thai three-ruble note. Unfortunately, the staff does not know what a left-luggage office is, there are not enough safes for everyone.
Cleaned the rooms well, did the change of linen. Only the floors were not washed under the beds even once during the whole week of my stay. They were afraid to clean up with me. Basically, guys and girls of 15-18 years old were cleaned.
In general, if you learn Chinese and do not pay attention to cockroaches in a restaurant, ants and spiders in a room, you can choose this hotel. I would recommend other hotels.
By the way, opposite the exit from the main building there is a travel agency "U Shurik". You can exchange currency there.
I did not like that you had to go to the hotel along the only street between two houses. On the second day, the faces are already familiar, everyone is inviting for massages, buying clothes. A special warm hello to the girls "Hi, Come in! Look! " They called to the clothing store.
During the day, you can easily go by tuk-tuk, but after 18:00 it's hard. Therefore, I think to take a hotel closer to the center.

P. S. I apologize to the hotel: I did not pay 100 baht for the safe. The employee did not ask anything when he handed over the key.
