Luxcity Hotel & Apartment
Not a lot of restaurants and bars near by but you can get a Tuk Tuk for a pound into the main restaurant and bar area. A good place to stay for cleanliness and a nice rooftop pool. I’d recommend a stay here for a night or two

WH Hotel 310
The stay was subpar. The room had a weird smell when we entered and the bed was hard and uncomfortable. It was very noisy, heard cars all night every night. Was also charged for a small food stain that could easily be taken out by the laundry team. Scam.

Room ok, great bathroom setup, staff good, enjoyed the breakfast buffet. Only real issue was the dirty window view.
