I stayed here 2 years ago and thought it was good value.

Staying here again tonight and the place has gone down hill a little bit.

No fridge and no sat tv this time round but still a good location and nice and clean.

400 baht a night for the air con room. Cheaper rooms available. 600 baht for the 'delux'.

Someone's nicked the duvets.

Looks easy to stubb your toe in that room should have warning stickers on the door.

MeMock · 10-11-2008, 06:01 AM

Update: (Having now slept here)

The beds are like a rock (I have just spent 3 weeks sleeping on he floor so that is saing something)

The pillows are worse.

The blinds are threadbare so don't expect a sleep in.

The wifi password is 3FDFD98A07

The English translations keep me amused.

Much larger rooms with AC, TV (mostly Thai), HW, and a softer mattress at similar prices can be had at the hotel located behind the Wrong Way Cafe. Driveway to the place is on the side of the Cafe. Located at 49/4/5 Phadoeng

MeMock · 10-11-2008, 03:47 PM

Yes I noticed that place when I went to the bar (it was Sunday and closed) will try that place next time.

Funny to hear about this hotel, stayed there for 2 nights in 1995 during my grand Isaan tour.

MeMock · 07-12-2008, 07:13 PM

How much was it back in 1995?

Jools · 07-12-2008, 09:39 PM

Thanks for posting this. It will come in handy during my upcoming trip to that neck of the woods.

MeMock · 07-12-2008, 09:40 PM

Maybe 300-400 bahts, not really cheaper than now. I remember I choose this hotel from the Lonely Planet. It was late when I came in a bus late in the evening. Was invited to drink some whisky by some thai blokes in a nearby cafe and then catched a motosai taxi to the hotel. Really not a pleasant place, but ok when tired and want a bed and a shower. Liked the people who offered the whisky though, nice funny blokes.

Looks like a standard 250/night provincial hotel.
