I prefer the smaller boutique hotels because I like the personal service and this hotel was wonderful. I chose this hotel also because of the affordability ($134 for 3 nts.); the location (10” easy walk to Pub Street; Old Market); the amenities (free daily laundry up to 4 items, SIM card, airport pick up, mini fridge, hot water pot, bottled water, breakfast); a LOVELY pool; and the reviews on the kind staff. My room was quiet even though I was on the 1st floor. Sept. Is low season for travel so not a lot of guests were there. Everything you need is nearby- a mini mart is directly across the street.
Tuk tuk driver was always available in front. The rooms are huge. WiFi is good. Great hot shower and ac. The only recommendation would be that at breakfast, ONE cup of coffee is included- would have like free flow.
