We really like this budget hotel. We had our first vacation in December 2022. and hooray for December 2024. I was lucky enough to buy a tour again. The location of the hotel is very good, as many in the reviews note, shops, market, supermarkets, money exchange kiosks are all nearby. The sea is just around the corner, where you can watch the tides every day. The "garden" of rocks scattered along the shore and boats on the sand at low tide is impressive. And so you bought up, got drunk, and went to relax at the hotel, but the "garden" of stones was gone, and the emerald sea was lapping in front of you. There is a public transport bus stop in front of the supermarket, where you can get to other beaches. This year's breakfasts have really become portioned, unlike in 2022 - they were just great. But the hotel price is also the cheapest for Kamala. There is always a titanium with boiling water during the day. You can make tea, coffee, noodles and eat sparingly. There is a wonderful, cheapest cafe with national cuisine within a five-minute walk. Here, after ordering one dish, you will be full and satisfied. Spices and a jug of clean drinking water are on the tables (without charge). I advise you to visit at least once. About the bathroom: the floor is really wet after taking a shower, it wasn't a problem for us, since we had slates in which we walked around the room. The pool is nice. It is cleaned every morning. You can use the pool at any time. The hotel staff is good-natured and always responds to requests. Cleaning and linen change only if you ask, they do not enter the rooms without your request (I consider this a plus - I do not worry about missing my things). The bed linen is washed and it's not their fault that it gets stained that they can't wash. If you don't like the linen, ask them to replace it. You've come to rest. Relax and enjoy the sea, the sun and the environment.

The hotel is on a solid 4! Budget, that's right! But the only thing that breakfast is not to die is 1 egg, a piece of bread, cabbage salad with carrots and rice. That's if you make it, after 9:30 there's only an egg with bread and the remains of salad and rice... the rooms are old, tired, leaking, the TV doesn't work. On the 2nd floor, something is constantly dripping inside, it is difficult to sleep properly at night There is a local temple opposite the hotel, there is music and classes from monks in the early morning, roosters are crowing, and there is a stinky river under the hotel, where several monitor lizards live) It takes 25-30 minutes to reach the normal Chapat beach But the market is nearby, the center, and all sorts of Bike rentals, chang money, massages... there's a great 7-11 store on the corner that has everything you need. 👍🏻 In general, we liked it!

We chose this hotel based on the rating of 9 (!!!) points on the site level.travel . A two-week tour for two cost 242 thousand. Given the relatively low price and three stars, we didn't expect much, but the hotel managed to surprise us. We checked in late in the evening, first we were given a room on the ground floor with a view of the road. As soon as we entered it, we almost suffocated from the smell of mold and dampness. We went to the reception to change the room, the hotel employee resisted for a long time, then finally gave us the key to the room on the second floor with a view of a dirty river and thickets of trees. But at least it didn't smell musty. Both rooms have antique furniture with chipped corners, scuffs and knocked handles. The doors (entrance, bathroom, and balcony) look like they were picked up by a bear and then urinated on. The ceilings are low and the lighting is poor, so the room feels like a cave. But all this is nothing compared to the "cleanliness" in the room. All the surfaces were stained and sticky, and it was disgusting to touch furniture and plumbing until they had wiped everything themselves. From the contents of the room, which they call "superior": - two beds, two curbstones, a table, a mirror, 2 armchairs, 1 table lamp, air conditioning, a mini fridge, a TV (never turned on), 2 glasses, a cabinet frame (without doors), 6 (!!!) hangers for two, 1 mini bottle of gel and soap per bathroom, one towel per guest, and those are either dirty or torn. That's it! There is no hair dryer, kettle, some basic things like a toothbrush cup, not even a toilet brush. There is no phone in the room either. And the safe is only at the reception for 100 baht. Their advantages are: a more or less comfortable bed, the availability of cold and hot water without interruptions, and a working air conditioner, although dirty (it obviously hasn't been cleaned for at least 10 years). The hotel itself consists of one 2-storey building and one 3-storey building, with a courtyard with flowering bushes and palm trees between them. A swimming pool with sun beds, a reception area with the same old and greasy chairs as all the other furniture in this hotel and tables with chairs - this is what is apparently called a "restaurant" in the description of this hotel. That's all. The hotel is designed in such a way that all the doors overlook the courtyard with very good acoustics and all the slamming of the door, cheerful alcoholic gatherings in the courtyard and by the pool are perfectly audible in the room. The staff does not monitor the observance of silence at night, so be prepared to resolve conflict situations with neighbors on your own. Those with a view of the road also complained about the noise from the transport. About room cleaning: they only clean if you put a sign on the door, the whole cleaning consists of making the bed and mopping the floors, and not always. The bed linen has not been changed in 14 days. The towel was voluntarily changed once, and a couple more times only after insisting to the staff at the reception. It's the same with toilet paper and shower gel - I had to go to the reception myself to get them. The staff at the reception are indifferent and barely know a few words in English, they don't give a damn about all the complaints about dirty rooms, towels and lack of a change of linen. Breakfast - they bring you a plate with an omelet, one piece of bread for toast and three slices of watermelon/pineapple. The buffet consists of rice, fried cucumbers and some kind of cloudy broth. Tea/coffee from a thermos, there was dry cream with the coffee. For two weeks, there were no variations in the breakfast, except that sometimes instead of three pieces of fruit, they gave two. We bought more bread, cheese and cold cuts at the supermarket, and this somehow made our breakfast acceptable. Now about Level Travel and the tour operator Fun&Sun: the next day after arrival, at a meeting with the guide, we asked to be moved to another hotel, the guide sent us to where we bought the tour. Accordingly, I contacted Level Travel with this request, communication takes place via a chatbot, operators are constantly changing, each time I had to tell the whole story anew, given that the Wi-fi in the hotel was only at the reception and in some cafes, this correspondence dragged on for several days and eventually it became obvious that Level Travel itself was nothing They can't do this, but they only broadcast my messages to the tour operator. The only thing they could offer me was a refund of 21,362 rubles for the remaining 10 nights, in case we leave the hotel and find another place on our own. Then I contacted Fun & Sun directly, they accepted my request, wrote that the answer would be within 3 days, and three days later they said that according to the laws of the Kingdom of Thailand, it is impossible to change a hotel or cancel a reservation. When I objected that I had an agreement not with the Kingdom, but with them as a Russian company, she repeated the same thing like parrots. All the other tourists we met at this hotel got there by Fortune and were very surprised that we voluntarily chose this hotel. It is not at all clear where he got such a high rating, perhaps once he was better, but now he leaves a very unpleasant impression.
