I mistakingly thought there was AC, so it was incredibly hot and muggy. I’m glad I only stayed one night.
I had two mosquitos in my net, which is no one’s fault, but waking up with bites everywhere wasn’t so pleasant…especially without AC. There is a fan but it doesn’t reach you well or blows the net onto your skin, which isn’t ideal for me, as you never know how often those items are cleaned.
You need to pay a 500 baht hotel deposit, and only in cash, so make sure you have it with you. You get it back right when you check out.
Since it’s a chalet / bungalow that’s cheaply made, there are a lot of open spaces between boards throughout the entire structure, which did not make me feel entirely comfortable at night.
Like many ultra-budget places, sometimes the sewer seals are not properly built and maintained, so there is sometimes a bathroom smell that’s not ideal. With the bathroom door shut, it’s not noticeable.
There is beach access through one of the hotels that’s about a 10+ minute walk across a busy four lane road. It’s possible to cross it easily, but not ideally located.
They sent someone to the ferry to pick me up for a small fee that was lower than what the ferry staff charge, so that was great. She had a sign with my name on it. She was easy to find and super kind. That was great.
I would not stay there again.
