"The hotel location is great. It is in a relatively quite area, only a 10-minute easy walk from the pier and at the beginning the Sairee Beach walking street going north. The room was very clean, spacious, quiet, well decorated and in good condition. It has access to an outdoor pool and a small beach via stairs. The hotel management was helpful and courteous and the rate was reasonable. I would definitely stay again."
