Отель после ремонта в 2011 Hotel after renovation in 2011

The hotel was being renovated, so we lived in the room for the first time after the renovation. Everything was absolutely new: TV, safe, hairdryer, all plumbing, etc. Cleanliness is very important for my husband and I, so we were pleasantly surprised by the room (after all, only 3 stars). Our building was to the right of the reception, and some of our compatriots lived in the building to the left and said that everything they had was old and in a deplorable state. We liked the breakfasts (two weeks after this trip, we flew to Phuket, also a three-ruble note, there were terrible breakfasts, in comparison with Sunshine). The location is good in our opinion. Five minutes to the sea (although we went to swim on the island of Koh Larn), near the Festival, where you can eat tasty, inexpensive and clean on the ground floor and good restaurants on the 3rd or 4th floor (I don’t remember). Everything is nearby. We walked to Walking street, to the pier too. If you got tired of walking, then we jumped into a tuk tuk (only 10 rubles). Around the hotel bars with prostitutes. They invite everyone in a row both in the morning and in the evening. They don't seem to sleep at all. It didn’t bother us, it was even fun to stare. Screams on the street until the morning, but we lived on the 5th floor and slept with closed windows with air conditioning, so we didn’t hear anything. On the roof of the hotel opened (a week after our arrival) a new pool, not bad, clean, beautiful view of the sea and the city. There are also two pools on the ground floor, but this is not needed in Tai, this is not Turkey and Egypt. In general, a good hotel in Thailand is not really needed, you only sleep there. The main thing is to be clean. For comparison: we went on an excursion to the River Kwai with Pegasus (a cool excursion). The guide promised us accommodation in a five-star luxury hotel where the king stayed, etc. (and not in houses by the water, where street sellers of excursions carry). They brought us really to the promised hotel. Maybe he is 5 stars, maybe the king stayed there, but 300 years ago. The room is sooo old, everything is sticky, smelly, the shower is like under Tsar Peas, the linen is stained, the pillows and blankets stink of dust, the air conditioner barely worked, did not cool anything. And it's 5 stars. Our three-ruble note in Pattaya is better. Everyone who was with us on the tour (25 people) of the same opinion, everyone was indignant, not even taking into account that it was only one night. At the end of this review, I would like to say that everyone has different abilities and needs. . Our friend always stays at the Hilton, his ticket is 5 times more expensive than ours, but he does not agree to the worst hotel. And we liked our hotel. We have a rest twice a year and in such countries as Turkey and Egypt we choose only good 5 stars, but in Thailand we do not need this. This country is completely different. We have already been twice and are waiting for November to go again.
