Will I be there again? NO. It is an inhabited traditional Thai wood house, only a bed (plus Thai breakfast). Clean (not so for the area … and you see it from your windows). You must walk about 100 metres through a narrow dark path (1 metres wide) located in an isolated area. Shoes must be left at the entrance, managing then to survive to the slipery and very steep stairs. My single “room” walls literally touched the "bed" (a mattress on the floor) on 3 sides, the feet side is left to toilet (separated by a curtain …..); no hot water in the sink. The walls are made of wood boards full of slots, so you will be aware of everything that happens in and outside the house. At dawn a zoo of birds, cats, roosters, dogs will welcome the day with you; then, the noise from the river and roads nearby will invade your room with the smell of breakfast. A/C is on top of the bed so cold air hits you. Wifi works fine, but there is no desk (if you open your suitcase you occupy all space). Lights are so dim that I needed my handphone light to unpack (window have no glasses nor nets), shaving-in-the-dark is quite an exercise. In the nice open area, mosquito repellent is a must. People giving 4-5 stars are probably all Indian Jones’ fans. I paid 75 EUR per day, on check out (no receipt) I was informed that they have (slightly) bigger rooms for a 50% surcharge, the price of a downtown international hotel. Fits in History Channel, but cannot be a hotel.
