rooms are small but clean and well equiped, quiet location only 15 mins to the downtown (Platinum)(taken tuk tuk $150 butt), hotel spa is nice and cheap $800 butt for two hours Thai massage, worth to spend a quiet day to enjoy the hotel facilities, resturants and shopping mall only cross the road, two minutes walk to the train station, taxi and tuk tuk always at the door, personally don't like the downtown hotels due to very busy and congested, enjoyed so much the stay at the Mandarin Hotel. need to carry the hotel business card to show the localdriver.
