Keerati Homestay

I was there for diving trip. It is very close to shopping arcade whrer trendy clothes and bars and clubs around.Love the facilities and the service as well.loved the location of this hostel.Staff are very helpful

tidy little place right in the heart of the action, hence the need for a room at the back unless you intend to party into the wee small every night! the rooms at the front are over soi LK metro's go go bars and are literally thumping all night. with access to the amenities at the sister hotel next door, LK Metropole this boosts the rating of this average premises. Be bold on negotiating the room rates and you can secure a good deal.

First, the bad stuff. The photos you'll see on Agoda etc of Keerati show a swimming pool and make it look like the hotel is situated back from LK Metro with some space to chill in the day. Yeah, that's not their pool -- it's the Metropol's pool (same owner). You can use it, but that oasis looking place they show just doesn't exist as a part of your hotel. So most of the rooms in Keerati front either LK Metro or Soi Diana Inn -- both which are HUGELY noisy, even at the best of times. LK Metro is like a new hopping Go-Go bar area, so the bass is thumping till 3, and people are screaming until 5. And when you walk out in the day, you're faced with Soi Diana Inn, which is one of those soi's you go to if you are a) a young sex-tourism "holiday maker" who wants to start drinking at 9am, or an aging sex-tourism ex-pat who wants to start drinking at 9am. It's definitely not a good location unless you are one of the aforementioned types. For anybody else, you can find better places not far from the action that are pretty quiet. Other negatives include no in-room safe, and doors that don't lock securely both inside facing and on the balcony. The shower is kind of completely outdoors (you gotta see it to know what I mean), which I found cool. The lack of water pressure, I didn't. And the Internet was mostly slow or just inaccessible from my room. OK, the good stuff. The staff were super nice. I actually asked to be moved to a room facing the other direction and they really did check the books and I think they wanted to help (but couldn't -- probably hotel policy), which I found nice. And they were nice to talk to in the day. Definitely one of the better parts of staying there. And the interior of the hotel is pretty cool. It has a pretty cool, funky vibe. The rooms themselves have decent beds, and there's a lot of wood, which I like. Verdict: I typically don't spend much time in my room. So what I think about are a great bed, quiet enough to sleep, solid Internet, and a great shower. This place kind of doesn't cut it for any of those. If you want to party till 4:30AM and you have great earplugs and you don't mind a mediocre shower, then if the price is right, this place may be for you.
