I had a pretty good stay overall at this hotel. The rooms were spacious with a nice balcony offering a great view of Pattaya. The staff were polite and friendly, which made a positive impact on my experience. However, the dining options could use some improvement, and the location is a bit out of the way from the city center, requiring a taxi to get there. Still, for a relaxing getaway, it had good value for money.
