I booked this last minute, and was really stressed trying to find somewhere cheap that would still be nice enough to stay for a whole week.
Our expectations were well exceeded, from the moment I booked the accommodation online as I received a welcome email from the Owner, with lots of useful information for our arrival.
We spent a week staying here and do not have a single bad thing to say about them.
When we arrived, I had left my phone in the taxi, the owner managed to track him down and convince him to bring it back, which from what I have been told is a big deal!
Everything you could need as a tourist, from
-directions to the Hotel in Thai (for the taxi drivers)
-a phone number to call if we get lost,
-a full map of local shops/food outlets/bus info,
-information on all of the big attractions in Bangkok.
The room is basic yet modern, and has all of the necessities as a home away from home (all of the extra luxuries can be borrowed from the reception desk. for example hair dryer-iron board etc).
You can't really complain about:
- Free Wifi
- Rooms cleaned daily
- Free Tea/Coffee making facilities in the lobby
- Free Bottled Water
- Proper Air Con in rooms
- Ensuite Bathrooms (very basic but does the job).
Especially when you look at how much you are paying for all of this!!!
No request was ever too much, we truly felt looked after.
Of course nothing compares to 5 Start Hotels, but I highly recommend Gems Park to anyone who is travelling on a budget. Thank You.
