The hotel is very charming, with a chic, vintage feel. You felt like you were staying in an historic governors home. The rooms were simple, clean and comfortable (bedding was soft, A/C was cold, water was perfect temperature) and the bathrooms were sufficient. The only downside was the thin walls and noise from outside - which included a rooster, loud birds and a dog. Additionally, our room was also on the main floor just next to the dining area and sound travels easily in this area. We had friends that stayed on higher floors and did not seem to have the same issue. Other positives include the staff at SSIP were amazing. Friendly, helpful and willing to help with anything! The breakfast provided each morning home-made, authentic Thai, delicious and well more than we could each eat in each sitting.
