Walking distance from long-distance bus stop. Fun fact: When we were almost there, we first had to walk through alleys between industrial buildings and then suddenly this small, quiet, green little resort opens up that is built in a certain traditional Thai way with stained glass windows etc. The reason we would give this 5 stars is because everything was according to our taste as globetrotters, not because it will fulfill every “Westerner’s” dream of a five-star hotel. For example, we liked the fact that their American breakfast included some cold veggies and Thai sausage instead of fried bacon and hash browns. And that we had to use an app to communicate with the staff (which we found behind the cabins in a family house; which we also liked:)). And we didn’t mind that they had Ovaltine powder at their self-serve breakfast table vs fresh-brewed coffee. (They did have instant coffee). And we didn’t mind that for some amenities such as hot-water kettle, you simply had to ask the staff. Place is clean, no insects except one mosquito, staff friendly, fridge in room, aircon good quality, etc.
