General impression It was as if I had fallen into the distant stagnant 80s: a shabby facade of the building, with destroyed fences of false balconies, poorly plastered corridors painted with green oil paint, on the third floor (I haven’t been on others) there are lamps - headlights from a motorcycle above the elevator, opposite a tattered sofa . RoomsThe furnishings and interior are poor, from the same 70-80s. Walls not painted for a long time, wires sticking out, a transistor TV, a thermos with electric heating, which did not want to boil. Crockery - nothing but glasses. There is a huge yellow spot on the ceiling - a leak from the top floor. Bathroom - shower and toilet are separated by a border and a curtain. There is no hot water in the sink faucet. The water in the shower is heated by electricity, you can remove it from the wall and put it in the sink to wash and shave. The water drains badly, when bathing in the shower, you stand in a puddle and inhale the smell from the sewer. Meals The so-called restaurant is an open veranda with tables covered with brown children's oilcloths and Viennese-type chairs on which local cats lie. For breakfast - rice soup with rare inclusions of minced meat, without taste, smell and salt; unsalted sticky rice; incomprehensible stew - a boiled mixture of vegetables, herbs and rare pieces of meat is very spicy; poisonous yellow soy sausages, scrambled eggs. Fresh vegetables were served an hour after the opening of this catering point or even later. For dessert, two types of jam tightly covered with local insects (flies or bees - it is not clear), from baking - bread. Drinks tea, coffee, milk (very tasty), chilled artificial drink. Fruits - watermelon, pineapple. Of all the above, I took only scrambled eggs, milk and pineapple. Staff and Service Upon check-in, they take 1000 baht, which they try in every possible way not to return. In the fridge are drinks that are 2-3 times more expensive than in a nearby store. If you do not check, they can hang their cost on you. When checking out, they tried to force us to pay for lunch in a room that we did not order. The towel issued in a single copy must remain pristine - we were forced to wash, because they planted a stain, otherwise a fine! Traditional Thai smiles are false. They appear when you give. When you ask for something, they disappear along with the knowledge of all languages ​ ​ ​ ​ except Thai. You constantly feel the pressure of the attendants acting as overseers. I witnessed when too much sausage was taken away from a woman, it is forbidden to enter the territory of the dining room with your own food and drinks. If you left the dining room and suddenly wanted to drink a glass of water, they would not let you back in. These are all trifles, of course, but they are permanent and therefore strain and irritate. Territory of the hotel and nature A poorly asphalted patch in front of the hotel where transport and an oval-shaped pool about 6-10m in diameter call in. The pool has a bar. The swimming pool is open from 8 am to 10 pm. There are about 15 sun loungers, some of which are out of order. In the pool go from neighboring hotels where it is missing. Palm trees grow around the pool. Elderly Europeans bring girls (boys) with them to the pool, but it is forbidden to bring drinks and food with them. They are taken away at the entrance or brazenly raked off the table if carried in a bag. On the back side of the hotel heaps of construction debris. Summary I'm not complaining. I am satisfied. Thanks to this hotel, I visited an exotic country and traveled back in time - to the USSR in my youth!! !
