The room was beautiful and spacious. The shower and tub were grand. The bedding was wonderful, although the pillows were way too soft and lacked firmness.
The power outlets were not in terribly convenient locations (I had to make coffee, and plug in my curling iron on the nightstand) but it wasn't a big deal.
The hotel itself is right next to the night market and a restaurant with a lounge singer. The setup and breakdown for the night market can be pretty loud. And the lounge singer across the street can definitely be heard until about midnight so don't expect absolute quiet at nights (luckily, he's not a bad singer!)
It's in a good location to the beach..maybe a 15 minute walk to Karon Beach with plenty of everything you may need on the way (restaurants, bars, shopping, currency exchange, liquor stores, pharmacies, massage parlors, tour companies)
