Dear friends, do not believe advertising reviews from travel agencies! Their task is simply to attract as many tourists as possible and sell more tours. I traveled abroad more than 10 times and "hit" the "service" for the first time.
Small details about the real holiday in this hotel.
1. The first surprise is a deposit of $100 or 3000 baht. The tour operator did not warn about this and I had the first difficulties: to quickly navigate in an unfamiliar place with suitcases. Take $100 with you, because when you get 3.000 baht back on the day / night of departure, it is not always possible to exchange them for rubles or spend rationally.
2. The deposit is usually taken in order to secure the property or the contents of the mini bar. There is no valuable property in the room, only an old tube TV and a small refrigerator in which there are two bottles of water and EVERYTHING!! ! The rooms are miserable. Concrete walls and ceilings are painted with oil paint. There is a concrete column in the middle of the single room. Tile on the floor. Everything is bad. That's two souls.
3. This is not a hotel!! ! These are 3 buildings of the former American military barracks, interconnected by a passage and a porch that picturesquely overlooks a multi-level parking lot. What's the catch here? the answer is simple: if an American barracks or prison is painted white, then it will not become a hotel (unlike ours). The secret lies in the design of the building. 4 floors of the "hotel" and 200 cubicles (chambers), located along the perimeter, go out into the common hall. Doors made of fiberboard and cardboard walls help tourists learn not only the details of the rest of neighboring would-be guests, but also take part in seeing off / meetings of compatriots who often arrive at 4 in the morning! Sometimes temperamental Russian tourists arrange fights in the foyer. Looking from the top, it is very convenient to cheer and place bets. From your room, the view will be no worse than the vipzone in the sports complex. And also the echo from all the steps on the marble floor. . . And the floors without an elevator. . .
4. The breakfast food is amazing. Boiled rice, fried rice with peas, underwater rice - "Soup" and dry fried pork + sausage and fried egg. This menu will be repeated EVERY DAY! No options. I forgot about fruits - the choice is unprecedented!! ! Watermelon and pineapple. One problem. Mostly Russians live in the barracks, and the watermelon season ended recently, and the pineapple season has come right in the dining room. Often I have observed how people greedily, pushing, scoop up full plates of pineapples, using not only special tongs, but do not disdain to grab them just with their hands. The common dish is empty at the same time in a matter of seconds. Satisfied compatriots victoriously sit at shabby tables, often not realizing that they may not have enough strength to finish this trophy, and take out not comme il faut with them. For the first time in my life, in a yellow-stained juice cooler, I found just water, not yuppie/zucco juice.
5. Friends, I eat very modestly. Mostly porridge and rice, which I love very much. I calmly survived in India (not GOA), whoever was - he will understand what I mean, but on the 6th day for breakfast I could only pour half a glass of orange zucco into myself, the rice did not work at all. There was an epiphany why half the tables in the dining room had only fruits on their plates. They were also at breakfast not for the first time!
6. "Polite staff" is good for Russians because Thais know 10-50 words in this language. I talked to them a little in their native English. There was no trace of politeness left. Maliciousness was read, sometimes turning into a sense of one's own superiority and a humiliating attitude towards the "poor" living in the building of the former barracks. "If there was money, the guys would certainly have chosen a different building . . " this thought was sometimes read between the lines.
7. THE CLEANERS STEAL IN THE ROOM!! ! This is the pinnacle of our stay. On the 4th day, they stole pearls and silver from my wife, which was in the room, and a cosmetic bag from the bathroom. I was in the room when "cleaning" came. In order not to interfere with the maids to put my cockpit in order, I went outside and had a bite to eat. Then he returned to the room. The door was closed without signs of forced entry. The room was "CLEAN" literally and figuratively. I went to the reception with a statement about the theft. Managers and security officers were called.
6 PERSONS searched the room! They sorted out all the suitcases. But nothing was found. The hotel staff did nothing to help me. At a meeting with top managers, I said that I would go to the police and tell everyone I could about this case. I denied access to the room. I withdrew a copy of the key from the circulation of the cleaners and took the deposit. I'm glad I didn't go to the police directly. Things were thrown into a suitcase (which was previously checked by 6 people). If you contacted the police for a false call, most likely they would have issued a fine. This has not only happened to us.
8. The territory is large. There are pros and cons. Legs fall off at the end of the day. But everything can be found without leaving.
9. More details that you can find: In front of the hotel there is a 6-lane highway, the speed of a car is up to 120 km / h, the whole non-hotel life is behind it. For 10 days, 4 people, just before our eyes, were shot down at the crossing. In an accident on a Tuk Tuk, 11 tourists were injured when they left our hotel. One was left without legs. (We saw it ourselves and talked (soldered) the Latvian from the place of the accident)
We can speak about the purity of the sea conditionally. Not far from the Ambassador, 400-600 meters higher, a large, fetid river with drains and sewage flows into the sea. The water in the sea becomes clearer at high tides. They "plug" the river bringing a large volume of water. At low tides, everything is not very smelly and with color. There is a plus. The salinity of the sea in the area of the ambassador is less due to the same cheerful river. After all, there is almost no salt in wastewater! Except for the one found in the urine. But as they say, it's a drop in the ocean. But at low tide, not such a drop!
