Pound for pound this was possibly the nicest hotel I have stayed at in Thailand. It is ultra clean and very well equipped. It’s location is not ideal (but not to far away) from the beach and most of the town’s main attractions are within walking distance for most people of average fitness. Grabs and Bolts are readily obtainable at ridiculously low prices anyway! We shared high floor (there were nine) two-bed apartment between two couples, which was super post, spotlessly clean and modern with double wall-mounted large screen televisions, two cooking hobs, a microwave and fridge/mini-bar, plus two large balconies. Showers (both en-suite) were great. Breakfast were buffet-style and marvellous with nearly everything (both Western and Asian) that you could want. The staff were all so welcoming, helpful and friendly. The facilities were generally well kept and extensive with a good sized swimming pool, plenty of loungers and seating and a neat indoor play-area for younger children. The games room is very large with snooker (not pool and full-size, darts,table tennis and other things, plus a decent fitness room and even a large outdoor trampoline!! Outside is not touristy but has bars and restaurants at either end of the road (within 100m). Walking distance from both old and new train stations. I would have no hesitation in returning.
