    It’s a little oldish in style, but for the price I don’t really care.

    Super convenient location near the bus station and clock tower. The owner is super friendly. It is in a garden and extremely quiet. Great value.

    The room was essential with a double bed, a small rack for my clothes and a private bathroom. Towels were provided. It is facing a peaceful garden with friendly cats walking around. Only breakfast is provided, at 100 bath each. The accommodation is in a quiet location, close to the centre of Chang Rai and with supermarkets and restaurants at a walkable distance.

    Room/Furniture was a bit old. But it was clean and had a comfortable style.

    The room was big with everything you need! You can also use the big green garden they have. The staff was really nice and always available. They were so helpful and even brought me some fresh fruit! It felt like home. The price is also very good!

    The WiFi didn't reach my room so I had to sit outside and get bitten by bugs.

    The guesthouse is in a pretty garden, just 10 mins walk from bus station and night market. The room was simple but clean with fan only. I think the owner lived opposite? Nice outdoor spaces. My room was in the corner, so it was very private with table and chairs outside.

    The mosquito nets were damaged and wouldn't all close properly, so we had quite a few in our room. It would be better if the room was cleaned daily, or at least the bins changed daily. The guest house is set back off a main road which seems to be the red light district area. It's not a big deal, but if you're a man, you will get heckled, and it might make some travellers feel a bit uncomfortable.

    The room is basic but spacious with a comfortable bed and has everything you need. The outdoor space is fantastic and great to relax in. The location is walking distance from night markets/clock tower.

    It was a bit of a hike to walk up to the rooms. You need to be able to climb hills. There is a shuttle, but it can’t take you to the top.

    You really never have to leave. People lovely, Mr shuttle driver was the best!!! The room was perfect. We had a spa balcony room. The view from the cafe is worth watching a few sunsets. Excellent thanks for looking after us.

    We liked our stay. Of course being an old house, wooden walls have no noise insulation so depending on your neighbours it might get a bit noisy at night. We had no problem during our stay.

    Very central location with a lovely garden and friendly cats. We had a room in a beautiful old wooden house with a lot of charm and only 4 rooms. Nice common spaces in the house including a shared kitchen with microwave and kettle but no cooktop. Everything was clean. It was a good value.

    The walls are quite thin and you could your neighbours especially well when both of you were using the bathroom, since they are adjacent and fly screen exposes both to the back side of the rooms. The location is quite central which may bother some at night, especially on weekends as music can be heard from bars nearby.

    The best part about staying here was the friendly, warm and helpful staff. They put us in a room with bunk beds because I requested separate beds if possible - which was nice because I didn't have to share a double bed with my friend, still got A/C, and didn't have to share a room with others! The staff also recommended things to do, including going to a Lunar New Year parade which was on at the time as well as an incredible fair that we never would have known about otherwise! The garden is lovely and serene and the cats are so gorgeous. We also had a really nice breakfast there.

    As mentioned by others, the rooms leak noise so you can hear neighbours, people going about their business, and the nightlife. Not a huge deal but worth noting if you’re a light sleeper

    We loved the cats that roamed the garden and their cute little overnight houses. Staff were super helpful and welcoming. Great location for the bus stop and night market, also super easy to get around by cab to the blue and white temples.
