Did not have immediate record of my reservation even when I had called three times from the states to confirm. The bell hop tried to hook me up w/ prostitutes. Not in a great area, but safe...China town. Close to the train staion for a few day get away to Chiang Mai...(they will keeep your bulk luggage very safe). The A/C blew during my stay, but was assisted into another room immediately. Internet is slow, breakfast was weak, rooms worn down and dark with some light bulbs out, however, cleaned daily. Hallways clean, but dark. They try hard to please. Get aroom in the rear and above the 5th floor for a view of the building tops...nice. Good variety of travelers from around the world were met there. Good laundry service.
