I selected this hotel based on its location close to the airport (about a 10 minute drive) since we had an early morning flight, and it was quite cheap, only $34 or so. While the room was very clean, this is a complete barebones hotel that feels like a sanitarium, very clean but white bare walls everywhere. They did provide a mini-fridge and complimentary water as well as a very satisfactory breakfast and coffee. There isn't much around the hotel, so we took a taxi into the city which cost anywhere from 180 to 250BHT, depending on the route the taxi took and traffic.
The only other thing is, don't book a ride to with the hotel, it cost 150 BHT one way, but I suspect it's cheaper hailing a taxi-meter. Even worse, the car isn't on time at all as they use a couple of cars for all their guests. We had to wait almost an hour for the car at the airport when we could have just jumped in a taxi, and waited another 30 minutes for the car the next morning and had to share it with another hotel guest! On top of that, its a really old boxy lincoln town car. Just make sure that the taxi driver is willing to turn on the meter, using the meter is always cheaper than negotiating a price as the driver knows much better how much it would cost with the meter and whether the price he gives you makes him extra money or not!
Overall, the room and hotel was good enough just to sleep and then head to the airport, but next time I'd rather book the Premier Admiral somewhat more, which is where we stayed for the majority of the time, and then take a taxi to the hotel, there's not much traffic heading to the airport in the morning that we saw anyway.
