I cannot rate TOO harshly because I knew what I was getting into when booking it and seeing the reviews. I do think many of the poor reviews are from people thinking they were getting some resort property. However, with that being said, the pictures posted by the property are not a good representation, check out google maps street view for a more realistic image. We loved that it was so close to Patong Beach as we are young and love the business and accessibility to bars, restaurants, etc. However we found it odd that the hotel has an entire separate building down an alley, which seemed to be empty other than the rooftop pool. When the front desk lady showed us to where it is, I was very confused as to what was going on there. Anyways, my biggest gripe about my stay was the fact that we, quite literally, woke up in pain each morning as the āmattressesā, are box springs. I am not one to stay in the hotel a lot on vacation, but a comfortable bed is a must and by my last night, I was almost in (happy) tears thinking about sleeping in a different bed. The best part of this property is the distance to the beach, and the nice woman with glasses that was at the front desk for most of our stay. I have also never had to wait while they inspect my room before check out, but I guess since they didnāt have us put down a credit card at check in, this is somewhat fair. The elevator also was out for part of our trip which would have been frustrating if we had to carry our bags up and down.
