Just got back from my trip and want to share my experience. . .
Going to Phuket for the second time, I wanted to get to this hotel with my husband, because. The experience of the last vacation suggested the correctness of the choice. I will not repeat myself too much, I will briefly say that the hotel is located in the most "hot" place in Phuket in Patong, from the hotel pool to the sea - 10-15 meters, cafes, restaurants, massage parlors, shops within walking distance. The competition of sellers of goods and services is huge, which has a positive effect on the price. We took a taxi for a trip to the zoo - we bargained for 100 baht there and back. Dinner for 2 with beer in a cafe costs 600-700 baht. Thai massage 200-250 baht (in the hotel 1100). By the way, Thais have become much better at cooking. As for the hotel, the staff is still smiling, the breakfasts are beyond praise and the variety of dishes and the quality of cooking. Cleanliness of the rooms is good (extra incentives do not affect). The indoor pool has been converted into a bowling alley. In the gym there were classes in shaping, aerobics. Well, as usual, a fly in the ointment in a barrel of honey - with a paid superb room, they settled in a room without a balcony overlooking the bath-laundry plant (window to window at a distance of 1.5-2 meters), where ventilation is buzzing around the clock and the screams of Thais are heard trying to outshout her. After the insistent demands of another room, they offered 2 more on the same side, upstairs and a little further from the laundress. Yes, the room has a safe, bathrobes, slippers, umbrellas, detergents, but the lack of a balcony in Thailand is a huge minus (linen does not dry in the bathroom). From now on, I will be more demanding on the description of the booked room. And the sea is warm, the sand is white, the palm trees are green, the fruits are delicious!
