Pros: Many thanks to the very good and organized stuff :)

Jel 9/10
Philippines 🇵🇭

Pros: Perfect Location. Near to everything. The metro, the bus, street foods, currency exchange beside 711. Everything we needed was within the vicinity. It was perfect for our stay. We've always take the bus to where we wanted to go and it's just cheap. Helpful and kind staff.

Cons: There was a smell in our room that doesn't seem to go away on our first night. It smelled wet or something that was quite uncomfortable. Maybe from the aircon but was not as bad when we stayed there longer. There was no ventilation in the toilet. And there's obviously moist problems in the room you can see from the walls and ceilings.

Pros: Ok based on price, this was excellent £19 a night for each room right in centre if China Town. We booked 2 rooms. It's not posh and the bed was a bit hard for me, but it was very clean and they allowed us to leave our bags the next day, whilst exploring more. Also we arrived early, but let us straight into room, so we could get on with our holiday. Great for travelers like us, but if you like 5 star posh, not for you.

Cons: Nothing serious maybe mattress a bit hard for us.

A perfect stay in Chinatown

Pros: I nearly didn't stay here because some of the reviews were negative, but everything was fine, I can't understand what people complain about. The location is perfect if you want to be in Chinatown, the staff were pleasant and helpful although not all spoke English. Despite what others have said, I had no problem with taxis finding the hotel, my partner requested a hairdryer and was immediately handed one. No complaints at all, I would stay here again.

Cons: The rooms are smaller than they appear in the pictures, but it's a very minor problem.

A compact hotel in the centre of Bangkok in Chinatown area.

Pros: It is conveniently located close to Chinatown and the Wat Mangton subway station.

Cons: Not in a particularly attractive lane, but that’s a small point and irrelevant once in the room. I stayed 4 nights and it was comfortable enough.

Best Of The Best!!

Pros: Location & with balcony! Just a stone throw away fr Wat Mangkon MRT. Exit 3 once out turn right. 2nd traffic which is 7-11. Just cross over to opposite on main rd & turn right within 10m look ( look up d signage )into d left alley(Soi 14) u will see a quite famous Chinese restaurant, walk in till u see d hotel on d right. Rather ez to find!! Not as someone stated dark alley!! Very near to Chinatown also. Once out hotel flank left then either turn left ( back to where u came fr) or right u turn right walk out & u hit main rd of Chinatown!!Easily accessible!! I usually took d back gate wooden door of d temple to walk out into Chinatown.

Cons: Just d shower hot & cold water. Rather difficult to control d temperature but in Thailand weather is hot so no much of issue!!
