Perfectly located in Ari & amazing coffee (and affordable) in the lobby.

The accommodation is near BTS Sanam Pao station, a 3-minute walk away, making it very convenient for travel.

Google, May 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest

However, it's a bit out of the way, especially in the evenings.

Staff925Strength

The staffers are helpful.

Google, March 2026, rated 4/5 by this guest

Convenient hotel, good service, clean, quiet and functional room, close to BTS (sky train) which is great.

Google, October 2025, rated 5/5 by this guest

Room are great, location the best, walking distance to BTS but Service was terrible, the receptionist looks like she don’t wanna be there, no greetings upon my arrival, gave me wrong room, she didn’t even apologize for her mistakes but other staff did.

Pool161Strength

Pool about 18m long was lovely.

Tripadvisor, April 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest

For those like us who spend the day out and just need a great place to sleep, there's also a basic pool that's not too big but well-maintained 🙂‍↕️

Google, October 2025, rated 4/5 by this guest

The only one thing have to say should be the water temperature of the swimming pool just too cold for swimming in December time.

Tripadvisor, December 2024, rated 5/5 by this guest
Beds172Strength

Super comfortable beds, incredibly close to the BTS and 7-Eleven, very friendly staff and helpful service!

Google, January 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the location near BTS Sanam Pao station was very convenient.

Google, November 2025, rated 5/5 by this guest

However, the pillow provided is quite flat and small, which may not be ideal for guests who need more neck support.

Room conditioncomplaints rising: 2.1 in 100 a year ago, 8.1 now311Weak spot

Good for value but really need refurbishment and upgrade the current fixtures & fittings.

Tripadvisor, March 2026, rated 4/5 by this guest

The facilities are modern, and the rooms are well-designed, but the materials seem a bit old; the plywood is chipped.

The rooms are a bit old, but the staff clean and change towels, sheets, and pillowcases daily without me having to ask.

Something broken in the room8 of 1711 in 21 reviews

It's a good hotel, although it's past its prime and needs investment, or at least a handyman to fix the sloppy curtains or the doors that don't close properly.

Google, February 2026, rated 4/5 by this guest

The hairdryer is a hassle and could be replaced; the airflow is very weak and difficult to use.

Google, November 2025, rated 5/5 by this guest
Heating and air conditioning7 of 1711 in 24 reviews

However, I got a room that was extremely hot during the day.

Google, May 2026, rated 3/5 by this guest

It has three fan speeds; the high and medium speeds are very loud and can disturb sleep, while the low speed stops the air conditioning altogether, leaving it unbearably hot.

Google, April 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
