Top North Guest House in Chiang Mai City

Dirtiest hotel we’ve ever stayed in. Never left a review before but the amount of filth in this establishment is immeasurable, the walls were covered in stains, dead insects and black mould. The curtains were broken and hanging off, the WiFi and air conditioning doesn’t even work which we paid extra for, the swimming pool was coated in filth, stains all in the bed and the towels were filthy. The tv was older than we are. Also, our bathroom light didn’t even work.

A grown old man walked straight into my room in the middle of the day looking for ***! Literally one of the scariest things I’ve ever experienced. I was laying down and this man open the door and was walking in closing the door behind him. Now I’m traveling with my BF, and he was out getting coffee, as I was sleeping in. So no the door wasn’t locked. But needless to say if a man walks in a room that isn’t his by accident, he wouldn’t try to close the door behind him while he is still!! I got up screaming cussing him out ready to knock him out, I literally picked up the chair as a weapon and forced him out of the room! Now you could only imagine how hard a woman would be screaming at the top of her lungs as an unknown man walks into her room, with all the backpackers and travelers that are hanging out along the pool, you would imagine that somebody would’ve caught wind of the cursing out, and clearly a distressed woman needing help. … but did anyone come, NO!! was anyone worried, NO!!! so I guess this place is used to argument and routing is in the middle of the day, as it just seemed to be a normal day for everybody that had been staying there for quite some time because they all looked pretty comfortable from the older guys to the younger guys that would be hanging around the pool every day. I stayed almost a week and this happened on my last day… I really could not believe that I’m screaming chasing a man down the stairs through the parking lot and no one bothered to intervene… this just goes to show the scum full place this hotel is.. upon checking in the front desk guy was absolutely terrible, he was lousy, at times disrespectful, when just asking common questions .. I arrived early, I wasn’t expecting to check in early. I just wanted to be sure that I was at the right hotel . As the name listed on trip is not the name that you Google nor the name at the front of the gate entering in the hotel it’s similar, but not the same . As I’m trying to ask if I’m at the right hotel, his rude and unprofessional response was a quick shut down with no direct answer to my question. Luckily, there was a girl who had also showed up early, and she said yeah I know he did the same thing to me so I verified with her that we were at the right spot . She told me she would’ve never stayed here if she knew it was OYO hotel , which we were both unaware of until showing up.

No hot water. Wifi is non-existent unless near pool. If you swim in the pool you come out covered in a layer of oil and 9/10 will end up sick. Originally we stayed here over two years ago for new years, thinking and finding it to be the cheapest place - so this time around we thought why not book for a week or two... We originally booked one week, but it was full so after arriving at checkin - they sent us to a sister hotel in Loh Kroh - aka prostitute central- and said "we have a surprise for you" turned out the alternate accommodation was far better than our original booking - had hot water and regular room cleaning - despite no pool and being surrounded by hookers constantly requesting our presence. When we finally arrived at Top North, we were immediately reminded how much this place lacked in all facilities. Yes, daily water delivered (two water bottles), but to ask for clean towels or room service... the staff were more than unreceptive to what we needed. If you're looking for cheap nearly homeless accommodation well... stay here, but honestly - you can do better. The only perk is the price. The staff are unhelpful and extremely rude. The rooms are left dirty. Majority of light didn't even work in the rooms. No daily room service - no offer either despite requests. No hot water and no wifi and a filthy pool leaving us both sick... despite a decent location to the thai pai markets, this was the most un ideal place to stay. Spend the money to stay elsewhere...
