A Casa Di Luca

Cannot recommend this hotel enough for the cleanliness of the rooms and the friendliness of the staff. We had a slight issue with one of our windows on the first night which was immediately rectified by the owners. In a great location if you want to be a bit out of the hustle and bustle surrounding Bangla Road but also within walking distance. My only negative would be the pool area as there are only two sun-loungers and it isn’t in the sun for the whole day. The pool was slightly unclean on our first day but was then cleaned during our visit so only a small complaint!

The room was spacious and they clean it regularly ( when you say clean the room)....but it is a VERY AVERAGE place for the expensive amount we paid...I say we can do better next time in terms of accommodation.... although motorbike rental is great since it was arranged by them... BEWARE of: towels were obviously cheap and very old, shower curtain kept on falling down, complimentary water bottles are very small, breakfast fee was overpriced,no beach towels being offered, etc. To TOP it all off: The owner's dog bit my toe and she seems to be more concerned with her puppy than her guest's welfare. They did not offer any first aid kit or show any urgency to send me to the nearest clinic and have me checked. Thank god it was nothing serious, no open wound and no need for a rabies shot....she even said: " oh it was a baby dog, sorry you are wearing colorful pants so it startled the dog".....Hopefully in the future, they can show more concern for their guest than a dog. In the first place, they should not have a dog walking and lying around the reception lobby of a hotel or guesthouse as a part of hospitality professionalism!

pros: 1) The rooms are neat and quite big compared to other hotels in similar price ranges. 2) walkable distance to Jungceylon, Bangla road and patong beach Cons: 1) No lift facility 2) I see some small ants near the wardrobe, may be irritating to some ppl. 3) The hospitality of host could have been better Overall decent for the price paid.
