Reviews
We booked this hotel on Koh Lanta hoping for a simple place with a nice pool, but unfortunately our experience was far from comfortable. When we arrived, we immediately had the impression that the property wasn’t very well maintained.
After checking in, the staff showed us our room. As soon as we opened the door, we were met with a strong smell of mold that was impossible to ignore. We informed the staff, who were polite and tried to assist by showing us several different rooms. However, every room we saw (about five in total) had the same noticeable issue.
Even after only a few minutes inside, the smell became overwhelming and gave us a headache. We didn’t want to risk our health, so we decided to cancel our booking and move to another hotel instead. We hope that the hotel will take measures so that the conditions improve for future guests!
We had warned reception about a glass bottle of water we had smashed in room but cleaned up incase there was any small pieces we missed and on check out were charged 50 Bhat for a bottle of water which we cleaned up by ourselves?
When we told staff about it initially they did not offer a clean or anything that would warrant this charge
Would not stay again
