The hotel offers massive rooms with tons of space and two bathrooms, which is really nice. The rooms are nice, very quiet, and have an excellent view; however, they show a bit of age, but not in a bad way.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-great experiences. The rooms were very spacious with great views, but I encountered some malfunctions twice on the first day, which made me give up using certain amenities. The food options, including English and Thai dishes, tea, and coffee, were excellent. However, I did find them lacking some variety. Overall, the rooms were in good condition and offered fantastic views.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was really nice, right in the heart of China town and within walking distance of the Grand Palace and Wat Pho, making it perfect for New Year's Eve. However, the rooms were well below average, with tired air conditioning, outdated furniture, and no views. Despite the friendly and helpful service, there were some issues with cleanliness and room allocation.
