Must Sea Hotel

Basic cheap hotel on a shopping street. The hotel has small rooms, a view of the courtyard. Close the curtains or the neighbors will look in. The room on the second floor was otherwise good, but somewhere nearby there was a compressor or other machine that makes a crazy noise every few minutes. All night. The room also smells a little like exhaust gas sometimes. Not good. The bed linen is clean but there are a few holes in it. The cleaning was ok, the shower had enough warm water. Two small swimming pools on the roof. And you can get everywhere quickly from here. The front door is on a shopping street with more than ten restaurants and shops right in front of the door. Maybe not for families with children. So the location is a full ten, if the noise from the shopping street doesn't bother you. Brekfast available for extra cost and it was good. The staff were very nice.

The location is very central and every night there is a pretty cool night-market in front of the hotel. A bar street in a walking distance. There is an easy access to the beaches, Kuta or Karon. Nai Harn is also close. Good restaurants, shops and a lot of entertainments around. My room was quiet and I could sleep well. Room size was pretty ok but the room had a musty smell, it was not ok without AC. No view or natural light. There was a fridge to keep my food there. 2 bottles of water were provided every day. You can take beach towels every day at the reception. The rooftop pools are small. Nice personnel. Mr O was helpful, he paid for my transfer as I arrived at night and did not have cash with me, he allowed me to make the payment in the morning, thanks a lot! There was no elevator but Mr O helped me to carry my suitcase to my room. All in all, the hotel is ok for a short stay.

Perhaps this is the worst three of all that I have ever been to in Asia. We had to settle there because the other hotels were at a standstill. The guy at the reception was always drunk, but he smiled and was friendly. The room looked out into a mine and it’s not true that it was quiet there: if you sneeze, you’ll have 4 neighbors looking through your windows , they will say “Be healthy!”, in the sense of the 4th room on your floor. We also heard what was happening on the 2nd and 4th, we lived on the 3rd floor. When we asked to change the room, we were told that everything was occupied. The room smelled very damp and things were not drying. Although the rooms with balconies, one part overlooked a noisy road, the other overlooked an even noisier cafe in the hotel courtyard. Only 4 rooms on the roof, 5th floor, were more or less with air, access to the roof with sun loungers and tables. If there is no way to get rid of this hotel, try to book at least them. Before leaving, we had to go out onto the roof and dry all our things. Now for the good stuff. The path to Kata beach is 5 minutes, but we went to the left along the coast, it’s deeper and calmer there. It’s 12 minutes to Karon beach and there’s creaky sand right away, on the left there are stones with fish - we liked it there most of all. We also walked to Kata Noi beach. -40 min. The bay is not big, but for some reason all the cocktails and smoothies were almost 2 times more expensive and it was dirty. But all these beaches are of course similar and everywhere the sea was clean and 28-29 degrees. We almost always ate at the foot courts in the market, it was cheap and tasty. We went on excursions to Semilan from a street agency and didn’t regret it, we had a great time for 2150 baht per person. Our tour operator offered for 3600-3900 baht.
