It's a single-storey resort of around 28 rooms in a row-house layout where you park at your door. Reviews say the rooms are bigger than expected, the A/C cold and the rooms clean, with a fridge and TV.

The rooms are bigger than you'd expect for the price, with a balcony, TV and fridge. From ฿490 — and to be straight, some rooms are ageing and the score isn't high, but it's still a quiet, easy-parking budget option for self-drivers.
