Wonderful on the Cheap!
Ibis being a no frill hotel chain just absolutely delivers. Rooms are the basic you need, bathrooms is just right, some may find it small but for a 6ft guy like me, its perfectly fine. Nicely done.
Beds a bit hard and pillows are of average quality. Theres just one per person.
Balcony is an added nice touch to dry off clothes from the day's swim. Loved the pool area and the eating area, its nicely done and comfortable to lounge around. Staff tries there best to serve your needs. Checkin wasnt that long, I was promptly entertained. Quite decent staff who speaks english.
Its near the beach and yes theres an Eden Mini Mart that gives great convenience. Its about 20 minutes walk to Jungceylon Mall or Bangla Road(red light district).
I would defintely stay here again if we can get it cheap again. It was just 2800baht(90USD) a night for Dec24-31, very peak season but the price, you cant beat that.
