Comfortable hotel but far from the action

I didn't realize how far from central Chaweng this hotel was when I booked it. It's perfectly comfortable, but I can't think of anyone to whom this hotel would appeal over other properties. If you want Chaweng, this hotel is a dangerous walk along the highway or a taxi/songkraew ride to get there. There is beach access through an overgrown vacant lot across the street. If you want peaceful, you're better off going to a smaller beach such as Mae Nam (which is better than Chaweng in many ways anyway). If you have your own transport and don't need nightlife or proximity to restaurants, this hotel could be OK. Finally, the owner tries to be friendly, but his English is too limited to get any useful info about the island from him.

Good hotel, poor location

The hotel is an excellent budget hotel. Staff were welcoming and facilities were clean. TV isn't a flat screen but not a big deal. However, the location is not ideal. While the beach is literally across the road, there are not many restaurant options nearby (especially cheaper options). To get into town, it's a 5-7 dollar cab ride, so you might as well just pay more for a hotel closer to town.

Nice hotel - very helpful staff

Very clean, good size rooms, quiet. Amazing service - the owner used his car to take us to the local markets - great atmosphere overall. Hotel located very close to the beach however had to cross busy road to get there. Not the problem once you know where to go.

Ystävällinen omistajapariskunta

Vanhahko, mutta hyvin hoidettu ja siisti hotelli. Iäkkäät omistajat olivat ystävällisiä ja avuliaita. Erikseen ostettava aamiainen oli erittäin hyvä. Hyviä ruokapaikkoja oli viiden minuutin kävelymatkan päässä. Lähin ranta tien toisella puolella muutaman kymmenen metrin päässä. Pieni, karkeahiekkainen ranta. Parempi Chawengin ranta 20 minuutin kävelymatkan päässä, vaihtoehtona ohiajavat lavataksit. Isona miinuksena oli pääkadun liikenteen aiheuttama erittäin, erittäin suuri melu läpi yön.

Чистый отель, рядом с шикарным пляжем

останавливались в отели на восемь дней с дочерью. Номер просторный, уборка ежедневная и качественная. Полотенца меняют каждый день. За неделю пастельное белье сменили три раза. Более приветливо но персонала, чем в этом отеле, в Тайланде я не встречала. До пляжа три минуты пешком ( через соседний отель). Пляж превзошел все ожидания. Идеальный вход в море, нет ни камней, ни водорослей. Отливы тут малозаметны. Вода волшебного цвета мяты. Это лучший пляж на Самуи. До центра Чавенга можно дойти пешком или доехать на тук туке. Отель не имеет своей территории и расположен рядом с дорогой, но в номере шума не слышно. Отель подойдет всем кто желает проводить первую половину дня на шикарном пляже, а после двух часов дня изучать достопримечательности острова. Для тех кто привык не выходить с территории отеля и загорать у бассейна, данный отель не подойдет.

Ok hotel

The hotel is fresh and the staff kind and helpful. It is close to the beach but you have to cross a busy road. There are no sidewalks so it is hard to walk anywhere else. You have to take a taxi into town. The beds are hard but that seems to be the standard in all of thailand. The noice from the road was very loud in to the room. The hotel is ok for the price you pay.

nie wieder!

Das erste zimmer roch nach schimmel. Im zweiten Zimmer waren Urin und spermaflecken auf der Bettdecke. Als ich den Besitzer freundlich gebeten habe das Bett neu zu beziehen wurde er sehr unhöflich. Er sagte mir ich könnte ja auch ein anderes Hotel nehmen was ich dann auch tat. Das ganze Gebäude riecht modrig und die Lage ist sehr schlecht. In das Zentrum von chaweng läuft man mindestens 45 min. Da ich über Hotel.com gebucht hatte war das Geld leider weg. Nie wieder tara,nie wieder Hotels.com

Prijs / kwaliteit en voor paar nachten ok

Zeer sympathieke mensen. Dit verblijf was geen topper maar prijs / kwaliteit verhouding was echt ok. Ik heb goed kunnen slapen en ik had geen vieze gevoel. Ik zou daar niet de hele week willen blijven maar voor 1-3 nachten is het ok. Met betrekking tot de locatie is strand in de buurt en voor winkelen of dergelijke is scooter huren verplicht om te doen.
