Going downhill but reasonable value for money
I have stayed at this hotel many times before but not in the last 18 months. Some things have changed. The major change is the amount of construction around the hotel has quadrupled. Construction noise is bearable and takes place between 09.00 to 17.00. The rooms are starting to look a little older. I had room 405 on the street side and had to endure traffic noise most day and night. Cold water only upgraded to lukewarm (best they could do) after complaint. My biggest complaint was the poor wifi in room. Very hit and miss. When I asked I was informed that it did not work well on tablet and notebook....but was goo on smartphone. Not the answer I was looking for as I do not have a smartphone !! Good signal was available on Lobby/restaurant level so I had to spend time there and not in room.
However for the price, even though there has been a small increase in rates, I think it very reasonable. The buffet breakfast is adequate and the staff are pleasant and helpful. Evening restaurant is also reasonably priced with a good selection of foreign and Thai food.
I stayed for 8 nights and would consider using again although now it is not my first choice as before. Certainly no wifi and noise were big issues for me
