This hotel is not in the nicest party of town, and it is a bit of a drive from many of the tourist sites, but the price is great (spend a little extra here and get the room with the jetted tub, you'll want it after spending all day on your feet touring).
The staff went over and above to accommodate us during our six night stay. Everyone was friendly and offered advice (my first trip to Bangkok). It was a lot like family.
The hotel is quiet and not crowded. Breakfast can be included in the room price and is simple,, a couple of eggs, sausage, bacon, and a plate of fruit with juice or coffee.
I had my laundry done, everything was washed and perfectly pressed for about $9 USD. They called a car or taxi for us when we needed one (you can get a taxi easily by walking about I've block to the main street).
Because of the location it is easy to get the feel of being local with the food stands in the alleys, scooters for rent etc.
