We came here for our honeymoon and we asked about a honeymoon package. We were told that they didn’t have a package but, they would do some flowers in the room for us as a gift. We agreed and were thrilled to at least get some flowers in the room. We also reached out to them for a shuttle from the airport to the hotel. They told us the driver would be waiting for us at the 2nd exit. When we got outside we saw the sign as posted but the driver wasn’t there, they had to be called and we waited 30 minutes for them to arrive to pick us up.
When we arrived at the hotel we had to lug our luggage up stairs are there isn’t a easy access way to get luggage into hotel to reception desk. We arrived in the evening so, the hotel was quiet. But, the 2 members behind the desk took awhile to check us in. The voyage to our room was tough because there’s no elevators as the rooms are set up like a campground. So we had to drag our luggage through gravel and uneven sidewalk.
When we finally got to our room we had to admit it was nicer than expected minus the promise setup in the room. We have no complaints about the room, it’s minimal as expected and has a working fridge which is a plus in the heat.
I got sick am with an upset stomach the second night here and my husband went to the front desk to ask if he could buy a sprite, ginger ale, or tea. He was told the kitchen was closed and he needed to go into town to get the desired beverage even after he explained to them my condition. I never thought purchasing a soda from a hotel would be an issue especially when they have room service and it didn’t require preparation for him to purchase the soda instead of walking 15-20 minutes to a store leaving me on my own in the room.
We also asked for a cup of ice to put in our water bottles and were told that they sell ice for 60 baht a bucket. I asked if I could simply purchase 2 cups as a bucket of ice is too much and we don’t have a way to keep it frozen since the fridge turns off when we leave. We were told that it’s only sold by the bucket and if we want ice we have to buy a bucket of it.
If it wasn’t for the fact that this location is good, we are on our honeymoon, and we can’t get a refund I would’ve gladly changed hotel. The customer service here has been the worst I’ve ever experienced and we travel quite often.
The breakfast is decent but, the heating on some of the food doesn’t seem to work so, the food is kinda lukewarm other items are uncovered and there are flies on the food. My husband enjoyed the rice and had that every day for breakfast. The juices are a mystery each day, they say one thing and taste like something else.
A few positives the beach is a 10 minute stroll away, the housecleaning lady was so sweet and kind, she told of us of a few places to visit and is one of the tea I’m not completely disappointed with our stay here.
Would I come back to this hotel, no I would not. There are other hotels in this area that are closer to the beaches and though they might cost a bit more, I think it would be worth it to have better customer service and quality of stay especially as it’s our honeymoon.
