The price was right.

The stay was OK at the price for my purpose. So any negatives that I found is not warranted. So let's leave it at a positive experience because the price was right. The expat owner is a good bloke to have a chat with. Pool table is free to use and enjoy a couple of cold ones.

Great location near 2 malls and halfway point of SOI 94. Close to Rock Zone bar and El Toro Loco which both have great live music. Only one7/11 on 94 but is next to the hotel as are motorbike taxis. I had the flu while I was there and the lady owner was very concerned and offered to make food and take me to the hospital, very sweet person.

A oasis in Hua Hin

Value Hotel. Superior rooms with balcony are very large so near railway. Swimmingpool with bar and food service. The pool is next door so. There is also a small gym. The proprietor Andy is a good host.

OK

Rooms are spacious and amply furnished, however they are now a little old and somewhat worn. Nearby pool, which is available free, is good, and this is probably the best reason for staying here.

Money's Worth.Good Location.Good Rooms.

We are a family of 4 and were pleasantly surprised with the clean and very comfortable rooms.Andy was so thoughtful.He upgraded one of our rooms to a superior double room so as to keep us together on the same floor.Honestly speaking,we never expected much considering the cheap price we were paying for the rooms but the rooms were indeed one of the best we have stayed in during our extensive travel in Thailand!Really worth your money!It is spacious,clean with very comfortable beds and a nice clean bathroom.Only downside is, it is beside the railway tracks so maybe there will be a bit of noise for the light sleepers! It never bothered us though because the trains pass by rather quickly.There is also a 7 Eleven down the road which is very convenient.The hotel is ideally located,nearby to beach and eating places.Hua Hin Market Village is within walking distance and the main town is just a short ride away by Tuk Tuk.We will definitely come back if ever we decide to visit Hua Hin again.

Will definately go back

The only problem we had was finding the place as the instructions and map on Hotels.com was terrible!! Once we got there we found a chilled out place with a large comfortable airconditioned room, helpful service with a smile, very reasonable rates and a great location... not to mention the swimming pool and small gym just next door! Everything we wanted was either right there or just a short walk / tuktuk ride away. We had a wonderful time and will definately be back.

Nice swimming pool and pool table

I enjoyed staying at the Donkey's Rest. The hosts are friendly and helpful. The rooms are basic, but the very nice swimming pool, and pool table in the lobby were fun to use.

You get what you pay

Spent only one day in this hotel, it was one of the cheapest in Hua Hin for Saturday night and it's not a surprise it wasn't the best one during two weeks stay in Thailand. It was hard to find it as it's pretty far from most visited places; staff weren't too happy to see us and there was a bulldog always trying to bite me; rooms were spacious, but uncomely; the doors couldn't shut properly and there were gaps, so you could clearly hear trains running only ~50 meters from your room; we saw massive spider and a small lizard in the bathroom. One of the worst experiences, but it was cheap though.

Ägaren tog hand om mig personligen och han var mycket trevlig. Jag hade lite frågor och han svarade på allt och hjälpte mig så gott han kunde. Man ska veta att detta inte är ett lyxhotell men för detta pris så duger det mer än tillräckligt. Kommer definitivt att återvända!
