Toilet is dirty

The room is nice. A queen bed with a dressing table and chair. But theres no hook to hang clothes or towels. The toilet bowl is quite dirty when i first came in. Theres like people's business "stain". If it cleans with clorox or at least brush it off it would be nice. The staff is not as quite friendly as i thought.

良い。

建物は古いけど掃除もされていて、天井が高く、味のある感じで、なかなかおしゃれだと思います。1階のバーも、ライブしてたりしてて雰囲気良いです。ただうるさいと眠れない人には泊まらないほうがいいです。 客層は私以外にアジア人は見かけませんでした。共用スペースのソファに虫がいるみたいで、痒くなりました。

Hip and groovy place for world travelers

This place has a good vibe. Lots of world travelers to talk to and even locals come to hang in the cafe. Plenty of space in lounge around too. And the location is convenient for many things including the Sunday market. The owners hooked us up with an awesome 3-day tour deep in the jungle (via sticky rice travel). Very memorable and the only way to really experience the interior.

周辺に色々そろっている

エアコンもあり快適でした。 周辺に食堂や銀行や案内所もありとても便利です。 ただ一階がバーになっているので夜遅くまで騒がしかったです。
