- Samanta (8/5): Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo - Camera spaziosa,luminosa,bel balconcino.Il letto king size,comodo e pulito. Bagno grande con acqua calda.
Aria condizionata perfetta. Non é responsabilità della struttura,ovvio,ma é bene sapere della presenza di tanti cani randagi che soprattutto dal tramonto diventano un po' aggressivi.
- Valter pecia (10/5): - Tutto, ottima pulizia, personale molto disponibile e cortese, posizione molto buona, si trova vicino alla spiaggia ma non troppo, questo consente di stare tranquilli. - -
- Julian (10/5): - Lovely spot - super clean - friendly owner - 5 mins walk from the beach.
Recommended Everything was great

- van paassen (9/5): Hotel aan brede weg, waar amper verkeer langs komt.Waar strand en restaurants op wandel afstand zijn - Het zit aan een grote weg. Maar er komt bijna geen verkeer langs. Strand en restaurants op wandel afstand. Ik vroeg om een 2e stoel in de kamer en dat werd gelijk geregeld. Beneden voor het hotel heb je genoeg zitplaatsen, maar je mocht ook binnen een andere stoel pakken. Eigenares geeft iedere x fruit weg. Parkeerplaatsen voor auto naast het hotel en motoren kunnen voor het hotel.
Was ophangen kon ik bij haar prive plaats achter het hotel, waar ik een wasmachine zag staan. Maar ik had al gewassen ergens anders. Ik moest vragen voor schone handdoeken dagelijks .
De kamer met airco en 2 bedden heeft de douche boven de wc hangen. In kamers met 1 groot bed, was de badkamer ècht veel groter.

- Laura (10/5): Clean and quiet close to a beautiful beach - Very clean, quiet and very close to the beach and a beautiful Buddhist wat (monastery). It is run by a very nice lady. We liked everything.
- Mathieu (8/5): -
- Didier (9/5): Nice place to stay if you’re in this neighbourhood. - It was what I expected, clean and comfortable. Nothing really.

- Andy (10/5): - So friendly and accommodating. Very close to the beach and staff, despite very little English are so helpful. The place is so clean - the staff don't stop cleaning! It's our second time here but not our last. Leaving!!!!!
- Philip (9/5): -
- Sidlik (8/5): - Nice beach nearby, spacious feel, nice staff, good room, beachy feel Quite a busy and noisy road nearby

- JOHN (8/5): -
- John (8/5): - Excellent position such helpful staff . Could not wish for more , swiming pool but you have the sea.
- Angelika Maria (7/5): I was intending to stay longer but could not stand it. - Rooms are spacious, there is hot water for coffee and tea for free. The lady is a bit to obsessed with controlling the guests instead of minding her own business, the bathroom was dripping, she did not care to fixed it, the aircon was not working.
But she wanted to take care of my taxi at all means.
- SIKKSAKK (8/5): -
- Markku (8/5): - Tämä on hyvä, sijainti on hyvä.
Tulen kyllä takaisin ehkä jo samalla lomamatkallani. Nuo hätäpoistumistiet on hukassa kaikkialla Aasiassa. Exit johdattaa alakertaan mutta jos siellä palaa niin eihän ole muuta tapaa kuin hypätä parvekkeelta pihalle.

- pernilla (3/5): - välstädat, wi-fi ok, ac ok otroligt hård säng, lyhört från gatan eftersom det glipade i dörrspringor. Tanten/värdinnan förstod inte många ord engelska. dåligt m vägguttag, inga sänglampor

- XIYUAN (9/5): - Nice place The curtains do not block out light, and the street lamps outside are still shining, making it difficult to fall asleep.
- Maurane (9/5): -
- Colin (7/5): Brilliant quiet little are and so inexpensive too. A must visit if you’re looking for a quiet, chilled out beach stay. - Big rooms and comfy enough. There are other places right on or close to the beach which are really nice, although more expensive, but it was ridiculously inexpensive clean and comfortable and everything (beach, cafes and restaurants) are all just a 5 minute walk away.
This area of Chumphon is a brilliant little area for a chilled out stay. We had 2 single night stays on the way to and from Phuket to break the long journey from Hua Hin and Bangkok and will stay there for 2 nights in a row nice time we visit for sure.
- Døls (9/5): - rolig og bare hundre meter fra Stranden.
Enkelt men renslig.
Veldig stor rom . Balkong.
Greitt og rimelig pris
- David (7/5): -
- Harm Dirk (7/5): Aftands maar goedkoopste verblijf - De locatie Het matras. De spiraalveren waren duidelijk voelbaar. Verder de onlogische plaatsing van de lichtknoppen. Het gemis van een waarschuwingsbord bij natte vloeren.
- Killian (8/5): Recommend for a budget stay - The woman running the place is lovely. It's functional and clean and a bit of a walk to the beach. I'd come back.
- laura (10/5): Great place to stay . - I was there off season so it was very quiet. My balcony was nice and I slept w the doors open listening to jungle sounds. The woman who ran the place was a doll. Helped me get to the pier when I was unable to find a grab or a local taxi for a ride. Location was great 5min walk to the beach. Beautiful location. The room and building were very clean. The bed was a bit firm for me.

- Harm Dirk (7/5): Redelijk goed voor een kort verblijf - De ligging Beetje afstand en summier. Geen lichtknopje bij het bed.
- Philip (9/5): -
- Giulia (7/5): - Ci serviva un appoggio a Chumphon e per il prezzo della camera direi che la struttura andava benissimo.
Aspettatevi servizi e pulizia tarati sul prezzo che pagate!
Posizione ok per raggiungere l’aeroporto in 25 minuti di auto.

- Joseph (10/5): Exceptional - Good affordable place. The owner was nice to us, but hard to communicate we used Google translate. Everything else was good. It's Thailand so of course there are insects everywhere but not in the room. The location for off season is a bit far from downtown so you need a motorcycle.
- Mattgibby (10/5): Exceptional - The host was very kind.
- Eliza (10/5): Best place to relax - Very comfortable and large room with a desk and balcony. Around a 10 minute walk to the beach. The host Tubtim is a delightful woman. Very genuine and friendly. Thanks for making me smile. Nothing to dislike
- Vallynx (9/5): Superb -
- Paul (8/5): Very good -
- Florin (8/5): Very good - basic accomodation, close to beach, fair price
- Florin (8/5): Very good -
- Florin (8/5): Very good -
- Jadesada (8/5): Very good -
- Alex (9/5): Superb - Location and staff were polite and helpful and room was clean Beds were too stiff
- Pia (8/5): Very good - Friendly lady at the reception, spacious room
- Seyfettin (9/5): Superb - Best opportunity for this price.
- Francesca (9/5): Great value - The hotel suited our needs for one night whilst we are cycling in Thailand. We were allowed to put our bikes in the spacious lobby.
A short 5 minute walk to the beach but we mainly wanted to rest so the location was not a big deal.
Clean and good value for money
- Alvinthedancingvole (6/5): Nice, but with the odd glitch - Staff were nice and helpful, beer was cheap and there was a 40 baht bus service every two or three hours to Chumphon. Location - on a double lane highway which could be noisy at night, and not that close to restaurants or beach. No general shops close. - even the dreaded 7-11 was in the. next village
- Zoe (6/5): Good location and value for money - Close to beach
Good value for money
Good AC Quite old and dated
Shower sprayed the whole bathroom
- Zael (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice lady at the desk
- Lauradoux (8/5): Perfect for transit - Just a one night transit.
A little bit out of the beach front if you want to stay longer, but for us it was perfect.
It's simple, affordable, clean, all what we expected.
- Iain (8/5): Very good - Big, clean rooms, good shower pressure, great price. All good.
- Julia (7/5): Great value budget guest house - Excellent value for money and was only 5 mins walk from the beach.
Lady who ran the place was very friendly. Bed a bit hard but I had already seen that from other reviews and slept okay.
Overall great value
- John (8/5): Very good - Excellent clean Guest House , friendly staff , and only 5 minute walk to the beach . Exceptional cafe 2 minutes up the hill superb value and so fresh , squid and rice 70 baht a great choice
- Rahel (7/5): Good - Nice host, clean room Matras was hard for sleeping
- Giulia (10/5): Exceptional - Stunning hotel very close to the beach. The lady at reception is the kindest soul you will ever meet, she was very helpful and kind. We will definitely be back
- Philip (9/5): Superb - I have stayed here before in an air-conditioned room but this time I took a fan room. The difference is that the fan room doesn't have a fridge. The staff don't speak English but that doesn't matter to me. They are all very nice.
The rooms are very clean with a typical Thai style mattress (firm). There is hot water for drinks in the lobby area.
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly staff and extremely clean and comfortable
- Mccormick (6/5): Pleasant - Location to the beach and the start of a small amount of restaurants was great, 5 minute walk. Good size rooms with a choice of fan or aircon, different pricing. In the foyer there is a hot water urn with coffee sachets and mugs to use. There is a key fob to enter the property after the staff have left, we were not shown this but it means you can come and go easily. Ok so the 2 staff come in at just gone 7am. From this point they start cleaning, banging, talking, music on phones occasionally. The sound travels, it echoes round the building and can wake you. The shower head is not moveable, it’s either on the wall directing the water to the opposite wall ( toilet paper, toilet etc soaked) or you have to hold it. Good pressure of water tho.
- Vlad (5/5): Ok, but next time will select more convenient place. - Friendly staff, trying their best to fix problems. Room is spacious enough. Quite location (not noisy). Hot water + instant coffee at the lobby, also can buy drinks / snack there. Air-condition in the room was broken. Since it could not be repaired, next day they offered me move to another room. New room was smaller. And water heater does not work. One more day need to repair water heater. WiFi is unstable, all the time lost connection (I mostly use internet via mobile). Location is quiet, but very far from everything. Walk 700m to the beach is Ok, but in general you need motorcycle / car to going around (nearest 7-11 and market is 3+ km from property).
- Lawrence (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lawrence (10/5): Exceptional -
- Philip (9/5): Superb - Just 300 metres to the beach. Big, clean room with excellent air-conditioning and a fridge. Nothing
- Stephen (10/5): ok. cheap - convenient, basic, cheap. had to remove my shoes to walk in lobby
- Jass (9/5): Superb - Very clean n staff is friendly
Distance is near by beach n restaurant No
- Tom (7/5): Good - Good spot!
- Jonathon (4/5): I guess if you have to stay in this town, perhaps it’s not the worst, but there’s really no reason to stay in this town. - It was clean and the air-conditioner worked. Also, the lady that owns the guest house was available available to do my laundry. Felt overpriced for very average facilities. The whole town smelled at times and there’s nothing much there.
- Lwin (8/5): Very good -
- Evangelia (10/5): Exactly what I needed, a place for vacation - Perfect place to rest, the beach is only 5min walk, the owner and staff are wonderful and the atmosphere is so chill and comfortable.
There're restaurants near the beach and cafes.
There's instant coffee for free at the hotel.
I'd totally recommend and would definitely visit again!!! There's no place to buy vegetables and fruits so you better get them with you from Chumphon.
- Khununya (9/5): Superb -
- David (8/5): Very good -
- Sara (9/5): Wonderful place next to beach and very friendly people :) - Local, wide beach for chilling.... Amazing that you find this in Thailand :) Aggressive dogs but didn't came to us... Without motorcycle a little bit far from everything.
- Carolin (8/5): Very good - Very clean, very nice people, stayed there 9 nights, close to the beach Bed was a bit hard, but it seems to be normal 😅
