Beat-up carpeting.

Service fumbles.

Going nowhere slowly.
The local traffic in the hotel’s area is notoriously terrible. If you take taxi or a tuk-tuk to reach your destination, be prepared to get stuck in a traffic jam. Alternative transportation options like motorbike taxi or the Bangkok Skytrain can help elim
